The 1.8 turbo is an interference engine. If I lost the timing belt, it would be ugly. From all my investigation, number one suspect is the fuel pump. But looking for other suggestions to look at. At least VW makes accessing the pump easier. No need to drop the tank, there is an access hole from inside the trunk area. 50 donations so far. Give it a try.

You lost your fuel pump? I would figure you would find it right where you would first look, in the fuel tank. 50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity

Really appreciate the suggestions.

So, on the drive to work, the engine on my 2001 Passat just dies. No sputtering, no warning, just engine goes silent. Here is how it went down. On surface streets and I slow down to make a turn at an intersection. Just after I make the turn, the engine dies. I was able to coast it the the curb and get out of traffic. There is the battery symbol on the instrument cluster flashing. Try to restart, the engine cranks fine, but no joy. After a short wait as I try to self diagnose and call rescue service, try cranking again. Engine tries to restart and sputters for a second or two, but never catches. Other info that might help diagnose is fuel tank was under 1/4 tank full. So, while waiting for the tow truck, go online hoping to find any helpful info. Possible solutions: Crank position sensor is kaputt. Lose wiring in various places. Sudden fuel pump failure. Air Gremlins. OK, any new ideas or opinions on possible causes as listed above? 50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity

It's a result of the same principle that has been governing disposable razor design for the past decade or so. You mean like the new razors that have a little battery and vibrate when you use them????? Talk about a way to get more women into wingsuiting. 50 donations so far. Give it a try.

There are pads that go over the shoulder belt in your car. Cheap and just slide over your current pads. If you don't like them, not much money wasted. 50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity

Juicing extracts the liquid and you lose the fiber. If you do lots of fruit at one time, expect a quick rush from all the sugars. If you juice fruit a lot, you can actually gain weight. Blending fruit to make a smoothie keeps the fiber and slows absorption as you digest fiber along with the sugars so you don't get the sugar high. Well, unless that it's what you are going for. With green veggies, you get less sugar so juicing or blending works well. Some veggies just don't blend well, like beets and work better in a juicer. Carrots and apples are great at curing some of the harsh flavor of some veggies. Careful on juicing pineapple. It foams up and is a pain to clean the juicer. 50 donations so far. Give it a try.

A high school friend's ex husband was a city cop and had a long drive to get to work. He always hauled ass to get there. He got stopped a good number of times by CHP and would flash his badge to get let off with "professional courtesy". Well, the second time he got nailed by the same officer was a wake up call. The CHP told him he just got an official warning and if he was caught again, his duty sergeant would be getting a call to be alerted that this guy had been warned several times about his driving. Let's say that had the desired change in habits. He no longer drove like an idiot. **golf clap** I have a lot of respect for LEOs. The one's that do there job well have to put up with the shit that is caused by the ones that consider their job a pass for being assholes or above the laws they are charged to enforce. I believe the bad apples are a small percentage compared to the regular ones that do there jobs without the power trip mentality. And no AD, I am not sucking up to you.

It's good to know how to use wing cut aways. But there was no reason this jumper needed to cut away or even unzip his wings. Chopping your main can be performed with wings fully zipped/connected. The only time I ever needed to use the cut away was for a broken arm zipper. 50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity

Today, my real job was to follow behind a bunch of well paid architects and engineers and write a punch list to capture all the items that they missed on their walk through. Still on the ground floor with over 100 deficiencies. This might take a while. One thing that I just don't do is say " it's not my job." 50 donations so far. Give it a try.

Singer does have the 20U line of machines as well. If you aren't dead set on a Singer, other options are Pfaff 138 and 238 or Bernina/Chandler 217. I have a 20U33 and just picked up a Pfaff 138 that looks like a great machine. Suspect the 20U will soon be up for sale. 50 donations so far. Give it a try.
