HOW TO TOPIC?

Post by Pinch »

Guys I have search all over but seems like we do not have a How to topic.

How about we start one and then you can browse though it if you get stuck with a repiar or project.

Ie. How to set you timing or How to adjust you breaks, with photos. So we actualty start our own "Haynes manual"

What do the gurus think?

Regards

Good idea, but sounds like it should not be all in one topic. Maybe a How To forum, with different threads for different how tos.

Agree with Fig. a How to Section, and then each post has the heading of what it pertains to: eg: Beetle timing, or Brake adjustment. etc.

When I used to buy Volksworld regularly I made a list of all the "how to's" and technical articles that they did but have since lost that list.
It proved very helpful on several occasions.

I'd personally think the "Guides" forum would be more appropriate.
Start the thread with "How to: "

Guys, have a look at the Guides forum
