I am new to the forum and apologise if this is a basic question.
I have a mk2 Golf 1.6 driver 1991 that has been sitting on my driveway for a few years. The brakes are seized. What would you do to unseize them. A few years ago a mechanic got in the car when it was running and tried to move off but the car stalled.
Is there a better way of unseizing? fronts are disc and backs are drums.
What replacement parts would you look at replacing afterwards.
Thank you guys. Is the webber a better carb than a pierburg? To change over do you have to do anything extra? If you can up load the pictures it would be interesting to see how its done.
I have a VW Golf mk2 1.6 driver 1991. It has been standing on my drive way for a few yrs and looking to get it going. My mechaninc tried to get it going but said the engine cut out because of the carb flooding. He tried to refurb the carb using a rebuild kit but said it carb parts were ? siezed/sticking. He is an experienced good mechanic although not a VW specialist. Carb has an auto choke. Car has manual gear box. Options are 1) buy a new pierburg - approx £400 2) buy new of one of e bay - hing Kong ones about £100 3) second hand from a breakers - found one for about £75 4) Are pierburg bad carbs. - are there better webber carbs
Sorry if I am a bit think but just starting. Help and comments will be much appreciated.
