Hello everyone. Trying to get to the point of driving my 84 VW GTI project and I am needing to track down a VR or hall sensor for my cam sensor. Sounds easy right? I seem to be allergic to doing things the easy way. I gutted the factory VW 1.8 distributor and pressed a 36-1 wheel on the distributor shaft. This means the gear is pretty small, like 2 inch diameter small. The teeth on the wheel are about 1.5mm at the points and the gaps are about 2mm. Thus the complicated part. I m able to find sensors for a 3mm tooth relatively easy. I was able to find this hall sensor that is advertised as a 2mm tooth with a 2mm gap, which I could get my teeth to 2mm if I turn the gear down a little bit, but Mario has his shop disabled and I am needing to get something going quick. https://thedubshop.com/crank-sensor-hall-effect/
Wondering if there is anything with the same specs available in either Hall or VR that I can get online or if you know of one I can pull at a wrecking yard even better. Let me know!
Thanks
