Volks,
I have been studying what will be necessary to bring the AC back on line
in my '88 GL with the proper controls for the engine. I find I
apparently will need an idle stabilizer valve and the idle stabilizer
control box that goes in front of the right hand tail light. The prices
on these two little pieces are horrific!!!! $800-$1000 depending where
one shops.
Question: Is anyone currently experimenting with, developing, playing
with, an alternative to the VW idle stabilizer control? Someone started
out that direction but haven't heard anything about it is some time.
When I saw a $600 Plus price tag on that control unit, I had to catch my
breath. That is a breathtaking price.
Thanks,
John
