I am thinking of an engine out of a van or a type IV. What is it leaking, ATF, gear oil, or engine oil? Whichever it is, it is probably a cheap and easy fix. Swapping in a type 4 engine is a lot of work with lots of adaption hardware to fabricate. Not easy, not cheap. You need to spend some time with this old engine first, so that you really know what the problem is with it. Plus, I don't know if you can mate the type 4 engine to the type 3 AT. - ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe, E-mail to: <type3-off@vwtype3.org> For more help, see http://vwtype3.org/list/
