Working on my brothers 67 single cab pickup and in need of a little help. I haven't touched a VW in yearrrrs, pardon my lack of research ability right now.
I noticed the STICKY above, though it seems very useful just not sure if it answers my question
First of all some photos of the engine serials
The engine that came out...
The engine going in...
AS Sometimes seen listed as Super Beetle case for 1973-onward
Are these 2 motors compatible for the most part? I tried putting the base of the fuel pump (the plastic part with a flange and funnel shape) from the old engine and putting it in the new one and it was REALLLY tight. Tried pulling it back out and snapped it off. If the fuel base itself isn't the same size, what about the pushrod...OR i just messed up and it should have fit??
I'm going to need a new fuel pump base for the second photo, if anyone can help me source one that would be grrreat
Rough start
