        Which brings up an interesting question. Exactly how much is my DP
1600 actually polluting? I've been of the understanding that the older VW
engines are actually relatively clean, but I am by no means sure of the
sources. I do think that running a itty bitty engine like this must be
better than a big block, but again I speak mostly from ignorance here.
Anybody care to enlighten me/us?

Peace,
