I put paper towels in the intake ports, too. ;-) It looks like you made a very nice flap return spring. I'm not sure, but it looks like the fixed end of your thermostat spring has just been bent around the little bent tab on top of the bell crank mechanism. It SHOULD go thru the kerf formed by that tab, and then hook around the large fixed barrel that is part of the ball crank assy. There is a photo of this in the Bentley that shows this, sorta: Ch 3, fig 9-8. The concern is that it would be likely to fall off it is just wrapped around that tab. I liked your "flywheel lock." ;-) I'm surprised that 100 lb-ft bent that 3/8" extension, but 1/2" is certainly more appropriate there. Once my sockets get that big, they are 3/4" drive, but I still use an adaptor and 1/2" hardware with them. Is there a brand name on that extension? Re: the stenciled numbers on your fan shroud. Did you add those? They look new and I'm surprised to see the 34 there. Were the 34 engines any different from the "normal" type 3 engines? The M 249 is the AT, of course. It's all so CLEAN! -- ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
