Bob, are you speaking of the fender screw or the fuel filler area screw?

Thanks guys.  These late cars throw me a bit with these kinds of things.
Bottom corner area of the windshield  seal isn't showing the signs of
leaking.  The fuel filler cable was dry as well.  If you could draw a line
straight in from the lead edge of the filler well, that is where the wet is
on the kick panel carpet.
I will keep checking what was suggested.

I'm wondering if someone left the very front, upper screw out. That
location is about 1 inch back from the "firewall". Just a thought, if 1 is
missing, both might be missing.

Thanks guys.

Dan, I did find your thread. Good stuff. Notchboy does seem to be the go-to
guy for this stuff.

I did find a manual on samba as a series of PDFs, but may go ahead a buy my
own. Supporting guys doing this sort of thing is worth doing IMO.

My main worry is the condition of the pump diaphragm. Do such things go bad
just sitting on the shelf?

Good luck on finding the manual. My only concern about installing one of
these
would be that you have to cut a hole in the inner fender wall for the
exhaust. This
is an opening for water to enter and rust to start. For a seldom used car,
this
may not be a problem, but then again a seldom used car wouldn't need the
heater.

As far as the pump diaphram goes, I'd be concerned that over a long time it
might dry out and then crack the first time it was asked to flex. This
might be
much less likely if it was actually NOS and had never before been exposed to
gas. Off the top of my head, I'd suggest pushing gas thru the pump and
leaving it
there for several days before you ever try to run the pump. This should get
the
diaphram as flexible as it's every going to get.

If that doesn't work, I have some silicone impregnated fabric that Russ
gave me
a few years ago, if you're willing to try making your own replacement
diaphram.

I'm guessing Ark Mirvis (Mirvus?), the Heaterman, isn't around anymore. If
you
can find him, he would have whatever you need.

I looked for him online five years ago when I got our Type 3 and
realized we had a B4 heater. Apparently, he's long since gone back to
Hungary (I think) for retirement.
