(IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) I have a 1.7 that has been sitting out in the weather for an unknown number of years, needless to say, it is seized up. I have never overhauled an air cooled engine, and could use a good how-to guide. I have the shop manuals for 914s, but could use a little more info. What are some recommended readings?

I saw this a while back and thought it might be useful. Good luck.

Thank you,
I went to the link and it is on the way to my garage. For $15 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) it sounds like just the kind of guide I was looking for.
