Here is a place that I just ordered some parts from

Their Website reminds me of the John Muir Book (How to keep your Volkswagen alive) and if you don't have that book here it is.

Good Gosh !!!!!    Bob Costa looks like Chuck down at Mainly :shock:  :roll:

That was my first thought too!    :lol:

I just checked them out, found a good deal on mechanical fuel sender. Its not a VDO but it's not one of those plastic pieces of junk that I've seen on other sites. Maybe now I can actually fill my tank full without gas coming up though the boot on my sender. Neat site
