Does anybody know of a Canadian source for distributor cap, rotor, points... ?
I tried sourcing some at FLAPS, but whatever they gave me doesn't actually fit. |

the 050 is a great carb distributor.
I didn't know the parts were NLA there must be 1million of them on VW's out there there should be a resource (even if reproductions) I'm sorry I don't know what the resource is if you do switch to a different distributor entirely.... keep me in mind for buying the old one off of you... with such large numbers produced, there will likely be a solution to reproductions in the future... of course that doesn't help you today brant |
