If you get list messages, you are a list member. Part of your posting 
problem may be the address you sent your messages to. Use

type3 at vwtype3.org   (not: type3-vwtype3.org at lists.vwtype3.org. I 
don't know how that got thru.)

I have new and good used OE IAD to intake runner sleeves. I don't 
know how to describe them; they are just euro style hose, with the 
outer fabric cover. I've never had to replace any of these on any car 
I've worked on.
