this is exactly what I was looking for when we first picked up our bus! For some reason there are no detailed engine shots. I know there are a few on ratwell.com but that's about it.
Can we open this up to FI & Carb'd motors? |

Yep, on purpose.

I know there is no heater tubes and engine seal, it was after I reinstalled due to a flywheel seal leak!! _________________ 66 Westfalia

Knowing your passion for data logging, I'll trust that statement and stop trying to source a screen for our 1.8L
