Vacuum Element Fuel Tank Filler Neck Flap Rebuild
Author Last Post

Hello.


I have old style element for fuel flap and need to convert it to new style (see picture). Unfortunately I have no pictures from bellow so I don't know how to new backing plate should look like. I would like to ask you for help and pictures.

There is a picture on the internet comparing old and new style, but the lower plate is not visible from top view.



My parts are bellow. The new element is from W114/W115 and I'm planning to bend and cut it to correct shape. Mounting plate needs modification too (remove old holder and weld new one in).
