    My son has bought a 2000 polo as a winter run around and there are a couple of little jobs that need doing. Before I shell out a bunch of money at Halfords or ebay does anyone have an unused and unneeded Haynes or Clymer manual that they would part with.

    I've just done the vw insert mod (I have to say for the money it's seems brilliant!!!) and am looking at the jetting. What are the guys that have got this mod using? I'm running 158 / 60 and it seems a little lean on the pilot? Is anyone running 162/62 like the stock 96/97 machines? thanks
