Re: Eberspacher glowplug

To be honest it's only a very small amount and I thought it could be because it's not running efficiently ?

Does anyone have experience of adjusting the pump and I've read there is a fuel filter / gauze, any idea where that is ?

Eberspacher glowplug

Anyone know if the glowplugs are available for my heater, BA4 which is in my 412...

It fires up ok but seems a bit fumey with a little white smoke so I'm guessing the fuels not being burnt properly.....

Any ideas ?

I have gone throu the troubleshoot guide etc..

Re: 412 auto valve clearance & points gap - how?

....in the top of the fan casing you'll see a little black plug, just unscrew / remove that and if you look down you'll see the fan... just CAREFULLY rotate the fan with a suitable tool ( large flat ended screwdriver etc )... this in turn will rotate the engine to desired position...

....

Sadly there is no rubber on the bumper either front or back .. I assume you mean the same as the beetle Euro bumpers are ?

But there are quite a few mods he has done over the years as far as I can make out....

I'll post a topic in the Type 4 forum about the car at present...
