I can't figure out why it would need vacuum to estimate mileage when =
it has a nice ODOMETER sitting right there...?
Are you sure?

vacuum thingy is for it to estimate mileage, based on intake vacuum. =
there is also a external temp sensor that you may have to find if you =
want it to all work perfect.

Just got back from Bug-a-plooza in East Ridge Tenn. and managed to =
score just about the only Scirocco part I could find. It was a =
instrament cluster for an 88' rocco. It's got the 140mph speedo, =
"working" odometer, 8k tach and the Multi-Function clock dealy. So =
heres my question.
=20
Aside from the proper wiper stalk on the steering colum with the =
needed buttons, is there anything else I need to have in order for this =
to work in my 88' scirocco that doesn't have this system? I also =
noticed that there is some sort of weird ass vaccume looking sensor on =
the back of the cluster but have no clue as to what the hell it is. So =
please send forth all your knowledge on this grand device.
=20
On a side note, since I was at the car show this weekend I wanted to =
let all of you know that one of our own listers Ray Miller took 2nd =
place in Water Cooled Daily Driver for his 81 S rocco w/16v transplant. =
Dan Williams (yet another lister) also showed his car. So the list as =
well as the state of GA was well represented as they were the only 2 =
scirocco's at the show. Mine however just stayed here at home since the =
damn infant doesn't want to burp so I can driver her. I'll be working =
on that over the next week or so as I also move to my new house. I have =
noticed however that all of my VW's crap out when I'm about to take them =
to a show. Think they have stage fright?
