Yea i'll give it a go.

Thanks for the advice.

I see, maybe i should give syphoning another go then.

Any other ideas??

Yea its deffinately conected to the outlet on the off side. Fuel does come out of the return pipe tho, when i remove the blanking cap i put on. Yea i have tried syphoning out out and it does come but soon stops, i wouldn't have thought i'd have to syphon it tho... . I do have a gti engine fitted, so...

Hello. I recenty drained the fuel tank on my van to gain access for new heater pipes. When i re-fitted the tank and filled it back up, no fuel was coming out of the outlet, so i blew it through with a compressor but made no difference. I decided to buy a new tank, fitted it, filled it up, and still ...

I make all my measurements the same, apart from the ring gear, mine measures 276mm, which would explain it not engaging. Maybe the ring gear had been replaced in the past on this perticular flywheel.

Yea im using a diesel clutch. Im pretty sure its a diesel flywheel but can not be certain. i don't know if theres anyway of telling if its by looking in the timing hole in the bell housing? If not i guess its enngine out and measure it.

Yea im back now. Time to get this bus sorted!

The van has never been started so i turned it over for the first time and it made a pretty bad churning noice, it looks like the starter is just skimming the top of the flywheel. Is it possible that i have the wrong flywheel? o...

Im currently nervously opening up the wiring loom from my Mk3 Gti although im not 100% certain which bits to cut out. I have read 'VW in-line four cylinder engines into T3 Transporter' guidelines, which have been very usefull, but im still struggling to understand. Im converting my Aircooled T25 so ...

Thanks alot for your help, i today managed to extend the original bracket and it fits well.

Thanks again.

Yes i have the diesel engine bars. Could it be that i have a non compatible gearbox for this conversion, seing as its a 1979 van? or should they all fit?

Yes its a diesel bellhousing.

Hi there, im currently in the process of fitting a mk 3 gti into my Aircooled camper.I today fitted the engine mounts and mounted the engine to realise the engine is about 3 inches away from the bellhousing. has anybody compleated this conversion? and come across this problem? i assumed it would all...
