Subject:WTB: 81 Federal Emissions Parts
From:Melissa Mourkas

Hi Volks:

Help me save my beloved Westy!  I am moving to California and need to
reinstall all the original Federal Emissions equipment to pass the Smog
Check.

Following is a list of Federal Emissions parts I will need for my 81 Westy.
The muffler/catalytic converter/tailpipe seem to be readily available new
from several vendors: the EGR parts are more troublesome...anyone have any
to sell or sources to recommend?

Thank you!

1981 Federal Emissions Equip needed(all missing):
Catalytic Converter
Silencer(muffler)
Tailpipe
Crossover Pipe
EGR Valve Pipe(connects to heat exchanger on driver's side)
EGR Filter
EGR Valve Threaded Adjuster Rod
Gaskets, etc. for above parts

Most of these are shown on p.89 of the Haynes manual, the threaded adjuster
rod is on p.87.  The EGR is not pictured at all.
