I know you don't like to degrade any item so may be challenging to answer but I'm very interested to know why you highlighted that fact. Many thanks

Re: VW 2.1 L aircraft engine
Hi CR, the type 4 engines had cylinder head problems on some models, and parts for them are not as plentyfull as the type 1. There were many more type 1 engines made than type 4. Also the type 1 is lighter because it has a magnesium engine case, whereas the type 4 has an aluminium case, making it heavier.The type 1 is also more well known for being converted to aviation use.CR Tech wrote: ↑Wed Apr 24, 2019 8:02 amHi Jean, how come you mention it is not a type 4 ?

Re: VW 2.1 L aircraft engine
I have both options available. It was originally run with the Fuel injection, we changed it to a carb to save weight.
