In answer to your questions: The problem with the pre-ignition started recently, i.e. long after the = engine rebuild. I use 98 octane leaded fuel, the highest grade available over here. Yes, the timing was set correctly according to the official VW workshop = manual (crank case ventilation removed and plugged, idling stabilisor = disconnected, leads from DLS disconnected and plugged together) Your tip concerning NOx was interesting. I'll see if I can beg, steal or = borrow a gauge from somebody. Any more ideas out there from anyone? All tips gratefully received. Best wishes, Harley Thomas
