I see <said the blind man with a hat> thanks for the tip.when I get it running I will get a sump from another model.

their should be a post on common problems that people run into. and how to fix it

That WAS the intent of this one.

ok
i have a question for you what is the difference between super beetle and a standard bug

Short answer:
Struts in the front of a super.

ok, if this is on topic....I assume everybody knows..
How to:
calm down after you think your transaxle is gone when you spot telltale metal shavings around your axle nut and drum.
drive home:
with a long ratchet after your shift tube support breaks.
with a broken throttle cable/clutch cable.
when the little fuel tube in the carb that looks like a faucet on your sink gets loose and is sucked into your engine, and whether it is gonna hurt or not...
with a iced up carburetor...
after that #3 spark plug blows out and you think you've been shot at...
when your fuel line rust thru leaving that wonderful smell inside your tunnel(for nonsmokers...those who do and are when it breaks...we'll miss you)
how to hotwire your bug if you lose your key or the ignition switch goes out right after you reach the top of the trail...
or maybe this isn't the right thread.

if i put a high volume oil pump on my 1500 will i need to put a sump on it that holds 1.1/2 more quarts of oil

I had to do that with the throttle cable, I put it through a hole I had in the firewall at the time and pulled it with my hand hahaha
