The MGR has some Toyota HSD magic to limit the back-EMF. It's up-thread I am sure.

I look at parts and they don't assemble themselves, too. Sometimes I restack them. Still nothing.

One goal is to mount the fiberglass fender skirts I got for the Superbeetle. When I talked to this guy at Bonneville he said the reason they weren't camo is that he had trouble mounting them.



The SUPERBeetle has the 'long-long' axles and they interfere with the latching mechanism. What I want is a Type II gas flap door latch at the top of the skirt that I can open with the 'churchkey'.

edit: Looking at that picture I think I can see how to make a splitter/dive plane/air curtain for the Beetle front fender.
