I dug out my core throttle bodies and see that there were significant differences on different years.
the 1.7 is a safe bet the Ljet is an easy one (but I don't know which year of Ljet?) the 1975 marked from "Jason" is what was on the 1975 motor I purchased as a running complete motor and likely is correct does anyone know which are 73 and which are 74 or even early 75 styles?

They all should have VW part numbers on them. Cross reference them with the PET. If there is no number in PET, post them and I will look them up in a NOS 1980 Parts Book.

I fully assume you are correct and the TB could vary on the Ljet I know there were at least 2 different Ljet distributors and that they had slightly different advance.. One is a better match for use with carbs than the other I don't know which year is which |

I will pull part numbers and dig further crazy that the factory changed the venting almost annually brant |

I finally pulled off the part numbers but was surprised by what I found All of the 2.0 Djet throttle bodies had the same part numbers despite differences in vacuum ports and return springs 039.133.067 The 1.7 TB has a vw part number 022.133.067 And the Ljet has 022.133.067A |

I'm a good hoarder…. ? honestly back when we raced a T4, we went through a lot of motors and a lot of parts... some of these were spares I bought... (hoarder problem again) my old black car has had about 18 different motors in its engine pay over my ownership of it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif) |
