I would think the rubber would be better. The foam may absorb water. |

Excellent! If you come up with a alternative for the relay, let us know. The later relay (433906059) is about $15 and the vw one (321906059) is also cheap, but I thought that that the pins were differ ... |

The 77/78 doesn't require a coil signal. As a side note, the fuel pump relay for the 77/78 is hard to find and not cheap when you do get one.
Not sure why you have the problem you do, but I had the ... |

You use a t-handle hex wrench on it. (i think 3 or 4mm). There should be a rubber plug on a wire hook that you pull out to have access to the adjustment. |

They also make that "Freeze spray". It's a penetrating oil that also freezes. Warm up the distributor with a hair dryer and then spray that on the plunger as per instructions on the can. I t ... |
