timing belt interval for Golf Turbodiesel from 90

Find out in this group: rec.autos.makers.vw.watercooled This is the aircooled (old bugs, etc) group.

Water on the brain - a bad thing.

Twice a week.

Tuesday morning and thursday afternoon. Unles you use it at the weekend, then instead of thursday afternoon, it must be changed at midnight on friday. You can trade in your used belt for a reconditioned one for a few dollars. The blue ones are better than the pink ones though. Unless its an early 1990 then go for the green ones with the red stripe.

real cool rich...i diss a book and i'm a d*****ad and whatever...what are you for blatantly giving out bad/wrong information? Rich Muir?

Chill dude. I like to read most of your posts, you usually give good reasoning / explanations for your advice. I have seen your reply's to wrong group posts too ;-) sometimes not so tongue in cheek as mine !

The worst outcome that could arise from my post is that he tries to buy the pink belt somewhere ! (pink is the worst kind ;-) )

I liked the muir book, so do many others, doesn't mean you have too, and 'I' never dissed you about it.

Like the choke thread, I have my opinion, and if you can 'teach' me the error of my ways I am willing to listen. But saying something is wrong / bad doesn't help me change my mind.

don't take me so seriously Rich....damn man...can't a fellow yank your chain a bit?....i remember that thread....my posts don't seem out of line nor out of place to me...(subjective i guess)...if you really want to laugh your ass off and think i'm a dick do googling (in this group of course) on "Bugninva" and "assbag"....hell i might just to get a laugh...

hehe...still laughing....but i didn't realize i used "assbag" so much...i may have worn it out...

I will google that later for a laugh. I just didn't want to get into a 'flaming' match with you ! I have seen you get upset over nothing but air ! (in tyres that is ;-) ) I respect you, your views, and posts (most of the time) , I was quite, 'put in my place' when I googled for your ''wrong group posts'' and realized I was totaly wrong . I just remembered that thread, and the language you use in other posts sometimes, and linked the two in my head somehow. Like Shag said, I guess you have bad days the same as all of us, but I was just wrong this time, And dont feel good about it !

Maybe the google will cheer me up again :-)

i can count the times i have been upset in this group on one hand... what others perceive as "upset" is usually me "not holding back" with what/how i say(things)....i have been in this group for many years now and as i said can count the times someone has litterally pissed me off, on one hand.... even the tire thread did not upset me.... as "Ripley" would say, "believe it or not"
