An engine that circulates liquid coolant through passages and a radiator to carry heat away. Gerry’s Vanagon spark-plug reference lists DH water-cooled engines with Digijet for 1983–1985 and MV engines with Digifant for 1986–1991. Verify engine code, market, and model year; this archived table is an identification aid, not a complete application chart.

An intermediate section of the exhaust system that joins adjoining exhaust components before the silencer. Paruzzi lists this part for Vanagon/T25 1.9- and 2.1-liter Waterboxer models from October 1985 through July 1992, with a 50 mm diameter at both ends. Earlier systems and different engine codes may use other sections; match the actual exhaust layout and catalog reference.

An engine that rejects heat directly to moving air rather than circulating liquid coolant. Gerry’s spark-plug reference separates bus applications by engine code and period: ED/GD/GE for 1975–1979 and CV for 1980–1983, including California models. A May 2002 Gerry discussion titled “83 Air Cooled - Production dates” concerns an owner’s September 1983 Westfalia and the difficulty of finding comparable 1983 examples; it is a period-specific production question, not a universal fitment chart.
