Hi Roger ..
sounds like a useful diesel/TD vanagon part.
I'd be interested if you don't find a home for it , after September.
which seems like a long, long way off, since it's been 'still winter' for so
long this year, where I am anyway.
It's like 'get this winter over already' ..and the thought of September
is too close to the next winter - lol.
It'll be a good part for someone.
