Subject:Part number needed and question
From:Jim DiGennaro
Date:Fri, 22 Sep 2000 18:48:14 -0400

Hi gang,
    Its hard for me to admit this, being a parts man for VW, but I can't
find a part number.  Its the rubber seal around the oil pressure sending
unit on a 2.0L air-cooled motor.  If anyone has any idea what that part
may be, let me know.

    Now a question.  What is the total advance of a stock 1.9L
distributor?  I got a new timing light and it has a degree wheel on it.
According to the light, my distributor is set a 10 degrees initial
advance and 50 degrees total.  I thought it was supposed to be about 36
total.  The Bentley book says 25.   I don't here any spark knock and I
get 20 mpg.  Go figure.  Any ideas?
