Subject: oil filler tube gasket for diesel
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"
Hi all,
finishing up my diesel- gas conversion and I need a new gasket for the
diesel oil filler tube. This is the one from the diesel oil pan that I
installed on the Golf motor. Does anyone know if this is the same as the one
for the standard vanagon? Busdepot lists part # 025 115 315.
thanks,
Matt
