I'd look at the contacts in the 4 way flasher switch in the center console.

I examined all the fuses and replaced the ones listed for these items but it
didn't help.
Any ideas??

Hey Kevin
The Rabbit from 75 to 84 used several different alternators made by bosch,
motorola and valeo,
I think for the 78 you may only have a couple of choices depending on the
engine, if 1.5 or 1.6. I think for most of them it just depends on the correct
pully length for belt alignment

Yes,
I've wondered why there were no diesel hybrids, it seems to me very
obvious.

Hmmm. If it were a V8 I would say you had the rear towers swapped (but
that give you low oil pressure).
Sounds as if the oil passage in the head is blocked somehow, and while
you have great oil pressure, no flow to the cam.

from an '85 with manual trans.

Success has come. I finally fashioned a curved piece out of a paperclip
