Well, I haven't exactly been pushing it real hard.I've been doing some fuel
injection tuning in anticipation of installing the EDIS ignition with the
megasquirt spark control.Does that sound like I'm really trying to sell it?

No, I'm not being nice.I am currently running electronic ignition in the
Scirocco,Not by choice. It is temporary untill I get the edis installed.Points
can be trashed and they will still get you home unlike the electronic that will
leave you on the side of the road.That has happened twice so I carry a set of
points and condenser as a back up.

Took the Spyder out for a cruise around the neighborhood this afternoon
to look at the trees, which are gorgeous right now in Nacogdoches. A block
from the house and it shut down. No fire. Yep, Beck builds these things from
all new parts, including the Chinese 009 and electronic ignition. 8800 km and
the thing gives up.
Towed it home, put in a rebuilt German 009 with points and condensor
and it cranks right up. This was the only car that I had with anything other
than a German distributor and points. I have driven VWs for hundreds of
thousands of miles and the only distributor failure that I have ever had was
one set of broken points on a 71 super beetle that only had about 10,000 miles
on it at the time. Will never own another electronic ignition equipped VW.
That's my rant for the day.
