They’re definitely different parts.

It sounds like the tabs on the end are getting caught in the cast aluminium 3rd/4th gate, they’re probably drifting into the gap as you go past up the gears. It’s likely to be down to a misalignment between front and back which will require you to adjust things at the centre joint. If you can do thi...

Ian, your kit is showing as ‘Out of stock’ at BW. Is there any possibility that a new batch might be forthcoming?

Google says that AAZ injectors are “two stage” but JX injectors are “single stage”. I’m not sure whether that makes any difference in practice in terms of fuel delivery, but the taller body of the AAZ injectors will probably mean that you will need to “persuade” the injector pipes to fit if you use ...

Most electrical glitches that I’ve experienced have been either down to a bad earth or a blown fuse, typically in that order. The only issue I can think of that was due to a broken contact was the horn ring in the middle of the steering wheel, but that was a component failure and hardly down to defe...

Something around 3500K-4000K tends to be the most colour neutral - they’re generally marketed as ‘Cool White’. Daylight lamps tend to be lot bluer than that with a colour temp of 5600K-6000K, which most people will find to be too stark to be relaxing. Warmer temperatures around 2700K correspond most...

We recently had our JX pump reconditioned by Diesel Bob and it came back like new - I believe they also recondition injectors so it might be worth giving them a call.

I believe some of the early Jokers (maybe pre-1982?) had an inline pump, which was located below the boxing out at the bottom of the main kitchen cupboard, rather than a submersible pump in the tank. However, my understanding is that this was still actuated by a switch at the tap.

It’s nothing as complicated as a pressure sensitive pump in our Club Joker. We still have the OEM setup which was a basic switched submersible pump inside the tank (G2 on the Westy circuit diagram) that’s actuated by a switch in the tap (J2).

Just mix the concentrate and water 1:1.

Maybe check that any adjustments to the front wheel bearings haven’t left them with too much play …

The Brickwerks tap is actually an upgrade on the Westfalia original:

It needs to have the microswitch built in, so that the pump gets turned on when the tap is turned, like this example from Brickwerks (pictured below) - you seem to have a separate tap and microswitch. https://brickwerks.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/sites/6/2022/07/t3w070808h-1.jpg Mybusparts in Germany ...

The following image is taken from a Samba thread on gear linkages, and shows the different shapes of the petrol and diesel linkages for both 2WD and Syncro vans: https://www.thesamba.com/vw/gallery/pix/2099953.jpg The linkages are all roughly the same length but they have different shapes to clear t...
