My local VW parts place doesn’t carry these anymore. Need a source or part number.

1.7 no good

IIRC, you have 1.7/1.8 he's. The bolt flange spacing is slightly dif vs 2.0. Inquire as to exact fit. Call toll free numbers and speak to a human. Rich Bontempi prob has a set.

Aren't these the right ones?

There are two sizes,
035 251 262
and
039 251 261
IIRC. I used the 039 gaskets
It’s for my 2L HE set up

I have something like 30 of them. Let me know if you want to buy some cheap. If you buy a decent qty of them I will sell them for 2 bucks each plus shipping.

all of the local sources we must have 50 on the shelf. Looks like you have a 2.0 heat exchanger with a modified muffler bracket should buy the stronger 2.0 muffler bracket Jim

Are mine the 025…s or 039…s ?

Posted by: jim_hoyland Jun 15 2022, 04:34 PM


Oh my ! Forgot that my bracket broke years ago. Gotta replace that too

Posted by: Van B Jun 15 2022, 05:00 PM

That curve up on the HE tells me you have the 1.8 not 2.0 exchangers.
