Oct 19	comment	Difficulty shifting into first gear on 1995 VW Golf (If someone can confirm that these two cars have similar shifter designs, I could have my brother photograph my Jetta, and form an actual answer here from my ghetto DIY fix)
Oct 19	comment	Difficulty shifting into first gear on 1995 VW Golf I would post pictures if I could, but that car is 1500 miles from me at the moment.
Oct 19	comment	Difficulty shifting into first gear on 1995 VW Golf I had the same problem in my '86 Jetta. The problem was a missing/broken bushing, which required dropping the tailpipe to fix. I instead solved the problem with some tin snips and a tin can, by creating my own "bushing" under the shifter boot. I don't know how similar the 95 Golf is to the 86 Jetta shifter, though, but it sounds like the same fundamental problem.

Oct 15	revised	Test Gasoline for Water Content Improve spelling
Oct 15	suggested	suggested edit on Test Gasoline for Water Content
Oct 15	comment	Test Gasoline for Water Content Ethanol is hygroscopic (it absorbs water). As such, gasoline with ethanol in it will not separate as completely as gasoline without ethanol. With enough water content, it will still separate, but the "gasoline" portion will still contain some unseen water. See here for some more info. This site suggests you might be able to cool your sample (in the fridge or freezer?) to render more of the water (but also some ethanol) insoluble.
