The way that VW part #s are set up, ALL VW distributors have the same digits #4-9, only the first 3 digits can change, indicating the kind of vehicle it was intended for, and the letter suffix, indicating the revision level. The one you posted earlier was a 311 T dist, so it is a T dist for a type 3. I'll have to check the parts lists to see which year, etc that one is for. It's NOT a FI distributor, but you probably already knew that already. ;-) > Interestingly enough, unless I am very much mistaken, with the spare > one, if installed at the same orientation as the currently installed > one, the line on the rim would line up with the no. 1 spark plug wire > in its present position.
