Essex5 Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Hi - have scanned the page from the parts manual, hope it's clear enough. If not I'll try a photo and see if it's any better. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Essex5 Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 I tried to take a photo of the linkage, but it's so far down on the bulkhead and below the coils that you can't really see it - sorry, I'm not about to start a strip-down right now!:-( There appear to be three gaskets, one each side of an insulating plate below the fuel drain plate and one between that plate and the carb. All three have the same part number. Hope this helps. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Essex5 Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 It's Spare Parts Catalogue 90/4, Auto Union Munga, published April 1967. It covers Munga 4, 6 & 8 - very useful. I find that a comprehensive parts catalogue is often more use than a workshop manual, when it comes to showing what goes where. I bought it on ebay a couple of years ago, can't remember exactly how much but it came from Germany. Parts are named in English and German.

chrisgrove Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Hi guys Verstehen Sie deutsch? I have a couple of user handbooks (Betriebsanleitung) for the Munga in german. The first is dated February 1959 and only covers the Munga 4; the second is dated September 1967 and covers the 4, the 6 and the 8. They were given to me by a german officer when he learnt that I was interested in making a model of the Munga, but the information therein is not much use to me as a maker of rather small models. They may well be useful for the owner of a real one, but I emphasize that they are in german. However, things like circuit diagrams are fairly obvious. Anyone interested? Say a couple of quid (each) to cover postage and packing and first come first served. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Essex5 Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Hi Chris - yes please! Nicht sprechen deutch, but the wiring diagram would be very useful. How would you like the lolly? Can do Paypal, bank transfer or whatever. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulob1 Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 at last I got my age document from the Munga club in Germany...two of my cars were ex lord carringtons...only last year after nearly 50 years the DVLA decided they did not believe the age of them and wanted to tax them as 4x4's at 400 odd quid, not free. SO I had to get them aged, they have hounded me with letters and phone calls...its taken me over a year of emails and letters and hassle to get the age letter and I am looking forward to telling the DVLA where to stick it. Its ridiculous that this department has so many draconian powers to annoy and iritiate. What they say goes and it is not right. They justify their jobs by intoducing yet more legislation to annoy iritate and force people to do ever more documentation knowing that by not doing it they can fine people...which they do regularly to increase revenue to justify their jobs, a circle of life for them alone... whinge over DVLA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
