Could you please highlight it in the pic, and I'll gladly go track it down for you. As I mentioned, I'm no expert and I've owned my VW all of 4 months [emoji846] There's no guarantee that all is connected right, other than it runs very well. I'll take a guess, as I was out at the van this morning, ...

Hmmm, we may have reached the limitations of comparing engines. There could be differences from the factory, and there could be differences from work by previous owners. Also it doesn't help that I'm new to VW, too. Only 2 black wires, and no connector from lower left coolant pipe. Also, my engine ...

Here's tracing the 2 black wires. video As for the other connector, down low on the back of the left side of the engine (always looking forwards), I don't have it. https://i.postimg.cc/k4q9vR9S/Screenshot-20260228-131140.jpg Thanks for the video, there are supposed to be 3 wires from the carb, the ...

Then letter/s at end. Hope this helps This is the serial number photo https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2026...

I have doubts because the markings on it say pierburg 2E, i was wondering, is there a simple 2E? Is it not 2E3 or 2E2? How can I determine that, thanks. Here is a video and a photo of the carb im...
