OK, some people are telling me that the white plastic one was for the older bus, all vanagons use the metal one... Told my mechanic this and he said he ordered the part by the year of my van and got the white plastic one... he also said that one side is bigger than the other and someone would have to do a lot of work to make this white one fit in if it's not stock... any ideas? suggestions? should I tell him to go with the white plastic one? will that hurt anything? or should I tell him to fix everything so that it fits the metal one? he's already changed all the fuel lines in the engine cmpt... thanks, -- David /NJ 85 Wolfsburg Westy "Beatrix" > Question for the list... > > Bought a fuel filter for my 85 Westy from a list vendor, large metal > cylindrical fuel filter, found out that the one on my bus is a small white > plastic one... was my fuel filter changed from stock? would this fuel filter > still work on my van?
