- I believe the '79 VW would have used Bosch's CIS injection system, with the
- metering being controlled mechanically by a deflected plate in the
- airsteam. If this is the case, cleaning would involve forcing the solvent
- through the injectors at pressure, and little more. One thing to
- pay special attention to is the spray pattern. If it's clean and the
- pattern is still crappy, E-mail me & I can send you some injectors. They
- would be from SAABs, but I would bet serious $$ that they are the
- same (send Bosch part ##, or I can look it up).

- God, I love having a barn full of parts!
