Early DG engine bay help

Post by Danthevan1986 »

Hello all.
I have a early DG motor it came fitted with a DF carb I have sourced a replacement DG 2e3 carburettor and stripped and rebuilt it.
What bits do I need to finish the install?
I'm after pictures of your early DG cooling systems as the df fitted doesn't have any coolant pipes to it unlike the pierburg for the auto choke.
I have pictures of my current system if my descriptive skills have failed me thanks everyone.

Regards Dan.

Google 7zap, to get all the schematics you’ll need. Drill down through the VW symbol and choose Typ2/syncro

#46 are the choke feeds

Hi Dan,

I’m having exactly the same issue now: carb needs coolant but no supply. How did you manage to resolve yours??

Cheers
Barney
