Default Part II of the DIY Servicing.

9:00 am to 12:30 pm, baked in hot sun, no food, no water....OMG, i am a pro at work

First time i've used Synthetic oil for the Bug, Kicked up by the TOTAL engine oil ads during the F1 season, i hit upon the idea to search for this engine oil and use it in the BUG.I get a free Reebok T-Shirt coupon inside ( A Rs.150/- worth T-shirt for a Rs.2000/- 4 ltr oil can...he, he).

After the oil change, i get the Bug inside my parking area, i start with

1) Cleaning the Oil bath Air filter
2) Carb spray to clean the Carb
3) Remove all the jets and soak in Petrol to clean,and re-fit them.
4) Remove all the spark plugs, clean them, re-install them.
5) Tune the carb and set the timing ( Manual, my mech has taught me to do )

Here the pics .
