You searched for a part for your distributor. Many different distributors have been used over the years, in many cases they are interchangeable on other engines. The chance that your distributor is not what was installed by Volkswagen at the time is great. If you use our 'Distributor / ignition Tool', all available parts for your distributor are shown.
This special O-ring is only used around the distributor shaft to seal between the valve and the motor housing. It has been applied to all gasoline engines.
When purchasing a new distributor, this ring is not always included as standard. Do not reuse your old O-ring, it will create leaks.
Tip: Use mounting paste (shown in the Options tab) for smooth mounting in the crankcase.
