1800 is approximately late '73 to early '75. That is, 1974 model year.

I have a '74 bus, and a spare 1800 motor in unknown condition. I've had some problems - weird inexplicable power losses, rough running, etc, but still almost no oil leak - ie, between changes I never need to refill oil. Cool hey, for a VW!

Sorry I don't know any more off hand: the Haynes manual for the 1.7-2 litre kombis has heaps of specs and stuff.

Regards, Aurel

There's lots of Type 4 (1.7 - 2.0l) specs at this site:
