Hello Type III Mailing List, I've never posted any questions to the list before, but i've been reading the posts for awhile now as my interest in the type III's has slowly developed into an obsession. Well, I've finally got a reason to write as I've recently aquired a 69 Fastback. My first foray into type III's. I'm sure this will be the first of many inquiries on my part but for now, the question i'm debating is this. The car had been converted to a single weber carb at some point, such that, as the carb stuck up past the original engine cover, the previous owner chucked the lid. Ideally, I would like to return it back to the original fuel injection, just not sure where to start. I do have a number of nos type III fuel injection parts at my disposal, including ecu's, fuel pumps, pressure sensors, (i believe that j.adney bought the last of the fuel injectors i had though). As i'm not a professional mechanic, just have a set of metric tools and a love of VW's, i'm also wondering if it might just be easie r for me to revert to the dual carb set up that came on the earlier type III's. I know there has been debate on carb versus fuel injection, and i would prefer to go back to the fuel injection, not sure i'm up to the task, technically or financially. Just thought someone might have some input as to the best way to go. I've really enjoyed the posts in the past and have admired the way you guys help each other out. Thanks! ~FRANZ MOORE ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
