I am trying to get my Beetle running before the winter time and I am wanting to know if their is any problems I need to look for that are common. It has the 1600 engine in it. Currently it is no crank and no start so I am trying to diagnose that to be able to move it under my carport for the winter and drive it some as well. Also currently the headlights do not work but the rest of the lights do work. The previous owner told me that when they were driving it home that it starting smoking under the front where the hood is and wiring near the gas tank so I am not sure if that has something to do with it or not. I am unable to find any burnt or shorted wires anywhere. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
