1970? bus to dune buggy

Post by danthemetalman »

Hi guys new to your forum.
Im all googled out by now. I picked up a old bus. I assume its a 1970 something. I have extremely limited knowledge of the vw engines.
So i chopped the bus up, turned it into a dune jumper, but in the build ive had a few hiccups and hope that somebody here can help.
Engine id tag. Mine is SFCJR217409 and ive looked everywhere trying to identify what engine it is. Cant find any ref to a SF engine. Or which characters identify the engine.
Im operating under the assumption its a 2lt. It does have a twinport.
Reason being im trying to problem solve why spark plugs last around 20 min.(have new points condensor leads coil plugs. But its throwing plugs like crazy. Completely dead. Any input would be great.
And didbthis engine come with a alternator or generator.
Please guys need some advice
