well...
 

i might have to buy an engine...
more details coming soon

hm..gotta find a way to get the car home i believe..massive lifter tick/knock coming from the right valve cover..guess the mk2 search is gonna get kicked up a notch:-?

did you try vwvortex?

damn

with apost liek that I'm suprised your name isn't pathogen...

:-P

Ouch.....

if the noise is coming from the valave cover i would suggest popping them off and checking he rockers and springs ASAP. if it is just a loose rocker/broken stud/valve spring gone soft it is a very easy fix. if itis indeed a lifter, time for a cam ugrade :)

teh car = at school...anyone know the tow range for AAA?

AAA+ is 100 miles.

yea ive got the plus, 100 miles it is, i dunno about regular

i think the regular is like 5 miles and every extra mile is like a few dollars, unless you get a cool guy like i did. he towed my friend from the edge of vineland/beginnning of millville on 55 to right down the road from VHS (dudes house) and he only charged us like $5 or 1$0
