Sorry, I don't know a source for those, but one for a beetle might be close enough to make it fit. Otherwise, this is a pretty non-critical area, so you should be able to just hammer a piece of sheet metal into the necessary shape. > I'm going to be pulling off the working injector system.

If you've got it working you're really much better off just studying a good manual a bit and getting familiar with it. It's not overwhelmingly complicated and if treated with respect it is reliable, economical, and low polution. It doesn't need a throttle position sensor because it senses air/fuel demand by measuring the intake manifold vacuum. The vacuum sensor (which they call a pressure sensor) hangs upside down from under the floor to the left front of the engine. The Bentley manual, which you should get a copy of anyway, is a pretty good source of FI information, but your best source is this list. - Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ------------------------------------------------------------------- List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list or mailto:help@vwtype3.org
