In the far left temp/fuel guage in my six there are three idiot lights (and a blank yellow non-operational light). One light is for oil pressure, one light is for generator/alternator function and the third light I can't figure out. It has a horizontal line crossed by a slash. The owners manual is of no help. What is this thing?

The autostick was a 3 speed manual gearbox that had a regular dry clutch that was activated by a vacuum servo which was controlled by a set of contacts in the gear shift lever. The torque convertor allowed the vehicle to stop in gear without having to touch the shift lever to disengage the clutch. You could start off in any gear but acceleration was better if you started in low and shifted up.
AFAIK the Sporto was the same setup. |
