1983 2.0L Aircooled Dual Carb hose layout

[MagicWagon]

I've been searching for a diagram showing where all the hoses, especially the vacuum hoses, are supposed to connect to/from on my 2.0L dual pdsit engine, but without success. I've got the itinerant Aircooled diagrams from here https://itinerant-air-cooled.com/viewto ... =50&t=7767 (although the links to the big diagrams are broken) but as that was geared specifically for earlier engines, I would like something I know is definitely right for my van.
Does anyone have a link to such a thing. I'd like to be sure I'm starting off from the right place before going through carb setup. Thanks.

Sadly most of the information seems to be for T2 models. I could do some photos from mine. Any specific areas you need?

Try this, found on Volkszone.

Thanks Rosie n Jim for the offer, but the volkszone picture answers most of my questions. Mine all seems to be connected up ok. The only remainig query I have is over the thick connection on the back of the airbox. Should that connect anywhere or be blanked off ?

Hey I think there should be a vacuum hose going to the right hand side carb.

I will take a clear picture on my engine tomorrow and confirm.

The vacuum connection on the right hand carb should be blocked off with a rubber cap. It is not used.

Hello,
I think you will find that this 'spigot' is already blanked off.
It was used on US spec vehicles with charcoal filter.
There is only one vacuum feed to the distributor, from the lhs carb.
The reference to 2 vacuum feeds is for the earlier carbs used on DJ engines etc.
For reference:


Hope this helps..
