they sometimes come up on the samba site, but if it is second hand its probably gonna fail soon anyway. so it may be worth while to have a look at
some other make cars at the wreckers that may become a suitable donor.

Wouldn't it be easier to adjust the carbs properly to stop the stalling? You may have to find someone that knows what they're doing. |

it's doesn't look like a vacuum operated one like on the fuel injected motors. it difficult to imagine how that one could be the cause of stalling.
