#25 is the J pipe, #22 is the tee

The blanked off bit is the remains of the J shaped pipe that attaches to the filler neck https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-Type-3-Fuel-Tank-Balance-pipe-68-73-fastback-squareback-notchback-311201179B-/201394008115?hash=item2ee404b033 Once inside the boot it connects to a reducing Tee, the big side of wh...

The lack of choke might though!

The spring is your failsafe Clare, it's vital!
Think in terms of the thermostat closing the flaps

I can't quite decide if You're old enough to know about Aerial trimming & interference suppression David?

That's a FI tank Danny!

It doesn't affect the fanhousing, but the thicker pump makes you ask the question Different pumps have different sized galleries, so you need to keep an eye on whether the galleries align between case & pump & on the sizes of galleries Big galleries on pump/small on case would give you stonking oil ...

Were Barry & Rich overseeing the build?
Just wondering if anyone checked that the oil galleries in pump/case lined up ok?

Can't be... the engine support bar goes over the oil pump nuts
Look at the support bar/ heat exchanger area

I should really have said Fan!

It needs to sit right in its position- you might have it caught up on something

I would suspect that the rear of the fan shroud isn't properly seated & that You've set the relay lever/thermostat linkage in the wrong position?
Whip the impeller off & the head tin on 1 & 2, slacken the pinch bolt on the linkage, then loosen the back of the housing & give it a wiggle

Sorry it's taken me so long to get to this guys! Massive thanks to all that came down- We had a highly successful weekend, to the extent that most of it now fits inside one side of the garage! I had a bit of a brainwave on Saturday night, that resulted in one representative of each club being invite...

Don't dismantle the calipers Graham.. All the advice I've ever seen was that You shouldn't, & I've certainly never seen a Torque figure published

Type 3's do tend to be a pain to bleed, Graham, so You're not the first to encounter problems! You'll forgive me for raising these points? Shoes adjusted? pushrod adjustment checked? (freeplay) New components compared to old? New brake fluid? What kind of quantity of fluid have You pulled through? A...

Theres a nicer fuel filler in Your Heap Dave!
Is it worth saving the lenses off headlights even if reflectors are knackered?

if you have an idle moment Dave, post a pic of fuel pipe!
Seats look like they're sold unfortunately, but I've told the guy you want the cables out of His old ones
I found a clutch cyl & it's destined to stow away in Broadys car.
Have a shufti too at the gearbox in pics & tell me?

there is/was someone knocking them out years ago

And its not uncommon to take a grinder to a 3 bolt door, thus making it a 2 bolt
