I am sorry Gil but your post doesn't make much sense ,,,,,,,to us sober types,,,,,

Try again, are you in need of carburettor information or info regarding dowel pins on the flywheel ?

hey
may be my question is not clear
the dowel pins are those between the bearings of the crankshaft and the block
there are on the block four holes: one for each bearing.
when i took off the crankshaft of the block i found only 2 dowel pins
my question is to know if it is normal or it has to be four dowel pins
my van is a 1985 1,9 dg carb 2e3
a dowel pin looks like this:
