Subject:      EGR light???
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"


    In our 82 air-cooled I finally got our new motor in and running.....all
the vacuum leaks fixed, bad injectors found and replaced, new Pertronix in
etc...  Just a few problems remain.
    The EGR light on the dash is lit all the time.  Is this something that
just needs to be reset (if so, where?) or is it something more sinister?
Also, is there any way to speed up burning old oil out of the heater boxes
(bought second hand, didn't notice till the first start-up when smoke
started rolling out of the boxes, buyer beware..)?  And the last is a hot
restart problem....it doesn't.  New starter, relay or what????


Any help would appreciated.
