VW engine

Post by alfadave »

My neighbour has a 1992 VW pick up.

The 1.9 diesel (non turbo) engine has a cracked block.

Anyone know where he can source a replacement. A full engine probably is best.

I presume Golfs of the same time had the same engine.

Tbh Breakers yards are full of old Golfs and Passats. That 1.9 diesel was fitted to a shed load of old VWs in fact If it was me I’d replace it with a 1.9 TDi Basically the same but with a puffer on it.
