Unlike the Type 1 engine which uses a gland nut, the Type 4 engine utilizes a multi-bolt pattern to secure the flywheel. This washer ensures that those bolts maintain their torque settings by providing a flat, hardened mating surface. During a clutch job or engine rebuild, original washers are often found pitted or distorted; replacing them is a low-cost insurance policy against flywheel vibration and bolt loosening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11\"\u003eThis washer is the correct fitment for all air-cooled and water-cooled 2.0L engines based on the Type 4 architecture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"12\"\u003eDetailed Vehicle Compatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"13\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVW Bus (Type 2 \/ Type 4 Engine):\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"14\"\u003e1972, 1973, 1974, 1975, 1976, 1977, 1978, 1979\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"15\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVW Vanagon (Air-Cooled \u0026amp; Waterboxer):\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"16\"\u003e1980, 1981, 1982, 1983\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr data-path-to-node=\"17\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"18\"\u003eProduct Highlights \u0026amp; Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"19\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"19,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"19,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003ePrecision Flatness:\u003c\/b\u003e Machined to strict tolerances to ensure there is no \"run-out\" when the flywheel is torqued down, which helps maintain perfect engine balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"19,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"19,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eCorrosion-Resistant Coating:\u003c\/b\u003e Finished to resist oil and moisture, preventing the rust-bonding that can make future flywheel removal difficult.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"19,2,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"19,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eOE Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e A direct factory replacement that fits perfectly within the flywheel's center recess for a flush, professional installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"20\"\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"21\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"21,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"21,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003ePart Number:\u003c\/b\u003e 021-105-275\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"21,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"21,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardened High-Tensile Steel\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"21,2,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"21,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eApplication:\u003c\/b\u003e Flywheel to Crankshaft Mounting\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"21,3,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"21,3,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eEngine Fitment:\u003c\/b\u003e 1700cc, 1800cc, 2000cc (Type 4)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr data-path-to-node=\"22\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"23\"\u003eInstallation \u0026amp; Maintenance Tips\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"24\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"24,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"24,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eInspect for Burrs:\u003c\/b\u003e Before installation, ensure both the crankshaft flange and the flywheel mating surfaces are clean and free of burrs.
