do you have to have nos parts? i got all my rubber from california imports,
out of canada. many of the pieces had the vw and part number stamped in, but
even those that didn't were a good fit. prices were as what would be expected
for type-3 rubber, but atleast my car seals : )

If you want to identify the colour, the details on my pages may help; check
out http://www.hallvw.clara.net/dating.htm to see if the body plate has
the colour code, and then http://www.hallvw.clara.net/vwpaint.htm to see
what the paint mixing code is.
There is also a website for paint formulation by Glasurit.
http://www.glasuritnet.com/htbin/glas98?PV=P&QUANT=1.000&CONTEXT=2&LANGUE=2
Enter "21" as the paint number
Enter "VW" as the manufacturer.
You can then enter a paint code , such as L-690, or leave it blank and
it will list all 900 colors used!
Wolfsburg West also has colours and chips. (Can't find the site, but just
do a search).

Hello everyone,
1). with it being summer, it's been great weather here in indiana for VW's
except it has been so dang hot. Here's a prob i was experiencing with my
square that i'd like some help on. Ok, the car starts up fine, and i can
drive it great for about 10 minutes, until, what i believe is happening is
that it is getting too hot, where it starts to run rough, and it begins to
shake horribly (not side to side, but i guess, front to back, like a really
bad slipping clutch), i do know that it is either related to the engine or
the transmission because when i push on the clutch the problem goes away, i
have no clue where to start trying to fix this. If i haven't been
descriptive enough, please ask me and i'll clarify it some more.
The engine has less than 100 miles on it since i rebuilt it with all new
parts, i just checked the valves (to make sure they weren't way out of
whack) and everything checked out, it is a '72 FI Square, i am using
Pertronix Electronic Points system (what's that about i recall i heard on
here? If anyone knows about that, please let me know) so i know the gap is
correct, i just can't figure this out.
2. Ok, when i drive the car on a windy day, this is probably normal, i
don't know since this is the first square i've owned and in the bus i used
to own i never noticed this, ok, anyways, on windy days when i am driving,
whenever the wind gusts, i can hear my engine rev up. Is this just a
"natural turbocharging" caused by a lot of air being forced through the air
intake slits on the sides on the car, or could this indicate an air leak
somewhere?
3. Last but not least, i have always been confused about the timing and
cheap gas issue. Ok, so would there be any harm in running high octane gas
in a 1600cc, '72 FI car? Because i know if the octane is too low, you run
the risk of knocking (or is it pinging?), but are there any adverse affects
of running high octane gas (i think the highestÙ˜- ly see here in
indiana is 91)? Would i then have to set the timing the other way? Would
the engine run too hot?
Thank you, and i'm sorry this is so long, i am just anxious to get on
enjoying this summer with the VW

I think your memory has failed you. 68-9 used the bullets, however,
the color of the bullets may have varied for different markets. Here
in the US (where Road & Track probably got their test car) all 68-9s
had bullets.

The FI is an excellent system. Don't assume that a conversion to
carbs will be pain-free. Both systems have their learning curves, but
the carbs, since they are not OE, have limited support. You cannot
buy carbs that will just bolt on and be jetted correctly and will run
flawlessly from the start.
Most people consider the switch because they don't understand the FI.
Once they switch to carbs they discover that they don't understand
carbs. Remember: the grass is always greener on the other side of the
fence.

Hello all,
I just received an email from the Type 3 detectives:
http://www.wildhq.demon.co.uk/t3d/
I asked them if they had any Hood/door seals, window scrapers(inner and
outter) and other misc window bits n pieces. The prices were not cheap,
but the real surprise was the fact that they quoted me 110 bucks for
shipping to the us!!
I am in need of these parts, but in now way going to pay 110 bucks to
ship a 50 dollar piece of rubber. Do any of you know where i could find
these parts a bit cheaper? Any help will be appreciated..
Thanks
matt

What kind of car do you have? A Notchback, Squareback, Fastback, or Type 34?
Wes«ñýu Metric has most of the rubber provided you don't mind using
"alternate" rubber. You should be able to refit a Notchback or a Type 34 for
about $600. For example, three door rubbers from a Type 1 Ghia makes two door
rubbers for a Type 34, and it goes on and on.
You should be willing to use Zep's quick grip adhesive, which requires
refrigeration when not in use.
