OUR ONLINE CHECKOUT is CLOSED and we are NOT accepting any NEW orders at this time.

We are still fulfilling and shipping previously submitted and/or delayed order requests (as product availability allows) UNTIL NOVEMBER 15th 2022.

But after November 15th, all still pending backordered unshipped items will be automatically CANCELLED **(except for any special ordered drop-shipped or made/machined-to-order items).

Our ability to respond to emails is greatly hampered by being under-staffed during this downsize transition time. But we continue to endeavor to answer email inquiries as best we can. And we will continue responding to emails through until early March 2023 because we are wholly committed to resolving any other issues that may arise from previous sales. It is still UNCERTAIN, but we may re-open a substantially downsized version of our store again in the Spring of 2023.

We sincerely appreciate your patience, understanding during this period of restructuring and/or closing. And a huge thank you to all of you whose support and loyalty we have been the beneficiary of over the 23 years that we have worked diligently to support the information and parts needs of the aircooled VW community!

Engine Compartment Seal, 1972-79 Type 2 and Type 4, 411-813-225
Engine Compartment Seal, 1972-79 Type 2 and Type 4, 411-813-225
2nd Photo shows engine seal being used in a Type 1 that had a rusted out Seal Groove. Owner converted to this foam seal and dropped engine temps 40F!


 

Engine Compartment Seal, 1972-79 Type 2 and Type 4, 411-813-225 is a replacement engine seal for VW Busses with the Type 4 engine. This can also be used to Type 1s, if you don't want to have to remove the engine to change the engine seal!

This engine seal is installed after the engine is put in, and removed prior to engine removal. It's shaped like an "H" with one slit fitting the engine tin, and the other fitting the body.

When using this instead of the stock type 1 engine seal, it's more forgiving of "gaps" or poor alignment of the engine and/or the body sheet metal due to accidents having tweaked the body.

Remember, when installing this seal the shiny side goes DOWN toward the road!
