I think the better question is "how many different friggin fans are there?"
I've held three different ones in my hands for the 914. That doesn't mean that there aren't more. It all depends on the bolt pattern on the crank, and it's position in relation to TDC. If you have a non-stock crank. Or a difference between a 1.7 and 2.0 crank, it's likely that they are different. And who knows? There could've been a new guy in the crank department at the VW factory that day, and he screwed up the angle of the fixture on the turret lathe, that day. Changing a fan to pass some cranks is much cheaper than scrapping a crank because it doesn't match a fan. End story- don't even bother with the timing marks on a fan. Unless it's the same fan that came with your engine (factory inspection certified.) Use delay timing. |
