    My 84 rabbit died in Chattanooga today on our 8th annual trip to US 129 tail of the Dragon. I'm from Louisiana. It was left in a lot off of I24/75. I'm looking for any creative ideas or help. I have a full truckbed of tools and ability. I am open to help with storage, buying a motor cheap to swap and get home or just about anything at this point. If able to store, I can bring a truck and trailer in about a week to recover.

    Current status is it will idle roughly. And kill on load. Everything ignition wise is new. New fuel filter was very dirty. Replaced and didn't work any better. I'm thinking the CIS fuel pump is clogged/shot.

    If anyone has mk1 CIS stuff or scirocco 16v I will be most grateful!

    Parts to swap? :

    MK1 CIS fuel pump
    CIS related 16v fueling

    16v head in running condition

    Smoking pretty bad. Had a sizeable amount of blow by.

    Open to all ideas or help. Thanks for reading. I will be in and out of service this week in and around maryville TN. Contact is 225.610.7192 call or text or email Eric.kimbrough@gmail.com.
