He drove it home. Confused Check out the fuel line with both sides connected to both the fuel pump intake and the fuel pump output. It runs and drives.

Other note-worthy items are the wooden plugs in the shroud, another in the tin to the left of the pulley, and the garden hose between the air-filter and the oil fill.
Also, I'm not sure what I'm seeing below the dizzy, some sort of plate?

Double lightning bolts on a German car..... Neo Nazi is the first thing that comes to my mind. Not saying that all other people will see the same comparison, but I wouldn't want ANYONE thinking I was some kind of skinhead.

But, of course, beyond the Nazi symbolism, this is just an ugly exhaust. I certainly wouldn't roll it for that reason as well.

What is interesting is that you see that as double lightning bolts. If that picture had been taken from any other angle, it would not look that way. I did not see the lightning bolts at all until you pointed it out. The "reach" I surmised, is that most people would likely never even notice the SS design.

And all I thought of when I saw that was this thread: http://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?t=460488 Maybe the Pokemon guess isn't that far off?

Thanks for finding that thread. I tried, but could not. The perfect (missing) link.

If you can't afford chrome, then silver paint is a cheap alternative.

Resolve a rediculous endplay issue without dismantling the case or even pulling the motor.
