Ok Dave our bus is 3/76 there is no computer nor any holes in the bodywork where one may have been mounted' knew I had never seen one but had to check, Wayne only a single outlet on the tank so I'm thinking that this is a non genuine block that has been built up as a replacement engine at some time, cheers Greg

Confirms fuel injection case

They're a better case I reckon Greg. Tank confirms Waynes & Kais comments . Is carb but has a F/I case. They are a bit rare.
So you've got an electric pump with a GD case. All you need now is the ultimate F/I.
Cheers

Wayne and Dave I have had a long day now yesterday, so will check and get back to you both later today, how does the fuel injected engines computer read the crank or flywheel, I ask this because there is a black rubber plug and wire, possibly a sensor that protrudes from the block behind the flywheel on the drivers side that has been cut off and I can't remember ever seeing one, you can see it in this behind the oil near the rear barrel and under the top drivers side bolt, cheers Greg

That’s the top dead centre sensor for the VW diagnostics. They’re nearly all cut off these days.
