    RESTO 2004 GTI Resurrection

    So I picked this machine up late last year to give me something to work on over the cold months. I've had a few threads here and there for specific items, but, to summarize this was a minor project that had good compression and ran well, but couldn't be water tested as it had a spun driveshaft...

    Long term GTI storage, no driveline

    Temps are supposed to drop near freezing this weekend, and I don't know what prep work has been done on my GTI. I'd like to flush cooling system, fog engine, and then prep with AF. That said, I've no driveshaft installed (and won't for a few more weeks). Any concerns with running it on the hose...
