<x-charset iso-8859-1>If you have one good one, take it to your FLAPS and look behind the counter for something similar. The originals have about 3-4 inches of spring shape, and about the same straight wire. The straight wire section helps it clear the throttle linkages, but it will still work with a long spring. It won't hurt to have a too strong spring, it'll just make your foot work harder. Even a shorter spring that attaches to some funky location. After a long time with one funky spring, I found a decent match at a FLAPS. Until I clear out the garage, uncover and shove my Sqbk in there, I can't just measure the springs. Anything close in size will work, don't worry about it too much. Run through the throttle travel and be sure the springs don't rub anything important, and keep them away from the idle cutoff solenoid wiring! Jeff '67 Sqbk -----Original Message----- Where can i get some replacement linkage springs for the stock carbs? The springs hook onto the linkage and the other end hooks to teh cooling tin... what size are these springs supposed to be? ------------------------------------------------------------------- List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list or mailto:help@vwtype3.org </x-charset>
