The foam seal keeps the hot air that has just passed over the cylinders and the exhaust under the van from being drawn back up and through the fan. When the foam crumbles or goes missing, the engine breathes its own hot air and road dirt, and head temperatures rise. On a Type 4 engine that already runs hot, this cheap seal is one of the first things to check when temperatures climb.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJP Group is a Danish maker of replacement parts for classic Volkswagens and Porsches, sold under the JP Group, Dansk and Classic names, with EMPI as its US distributor.
