<div dir="ltr"><div>Thank you, that clarified part of it. I have 4 now. All I can say is the 73 is just like you described. I have one off a 72 auto trans and it's exactly the same as the 73 minus the EGR pipe and the addition of the second vacuum port for the 72 only dual port vacuum can. Both have the PCV pipe. One I got from ISP west I can tell it's a 72 manual trans because it has the one lever arm and the added 2nd retard port off the bottom and it has the PCV pipe and the MPS port is on top on the left , temp sensor on the right , it has the dashpot thing bolted to two studs where the EGR pipe would fit but no auto trans port .</div><div> The one I got from Tram has the PCV pipe , the correct auto trans lever and the spots to mount the kick down switch, no EGR pipe and it has the MPS bottom left and Auto trans port on the bottom right , and temp sensor top right . </div><div><br></div><div> What I was looking for was one that had no shaft play at all and both of these do not . I guess I'll try the one Tram sent since it has what I need . They all seem to be later because all do have the PCV pipe on the back cover and this was not on any before 72 that I know of. I can see the PCV back cover is original on all 4. <br></div><div><br></div><div> I am not sure how liquid oil finds its way in the MPS hose oher than just heat the oil bath has while running or an overfilled oil bath or one with to thin of oil , Mine did have oil in the IAD , the 72 I used last time I replaced the runner hoses and intake gaskets and all fuel and vacuum lines. That took a long time to get that way and it's still clean inside since I did this at the end of 2019. Now however the 72 IAD is so worn at the shaft it's useless and probably the source of the high idle/ vacuum leak. <br> </div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Thu, Jul 27, 2023 at 3:19 PM Jim Adney <<a href="mailto:jadney@vwtype3.org">jadney@vwtype3.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">On 27 Jul 2023 at 13:02, William Jahn wrote:<br>

The intake air temp sensors on the IAD are on the left on '70-2 models and <br>
on the right on '73s.<br>
<br>
'69 AT IADs had no temp sensor. That sensor stuck into the engine case and <br>
took the place of the front AAR stud.<br>

That would not be a '73 IAD. Must be a '72 or earlier. Only the '73 AT IAD <br>
has the TWO AT Vacuum Modulator ports. I don't know why.<br>
<br>
I probably have a correct '73 AT IAD. Let me know if you want me to check.<br>
<br>
'73 moved the Pressure Sensor port to the top. Oil VAPOR is still able to get <br>
there, but any LIQUID oil which has collected on the bottom of the IAD won't<br>
be able to get into the Pressure Sensor hose.<br>
<br>
Oil vapor still manages to get into the Pressure Sensors and condense <br>
there, but it doesn't seem to cause any problems. I used to clean those out <br>
regularly, but there was seldom very much, and removing it never made any <br>
difference.<br>
