Could someone offer a little water pumper advice? I'm an air cooled guy but a buddy has a water cooled engine question and I'm no sure what to tell him. Can I swap out a engine and tranny from a (1.8 lt.) 1992 jetta into a 1986 golf convertible? The 1.8 is a good runner and cheap. Will electric's, other mechanicals and such be compatible or a pain?
Someone wedged a 2.0 lt. into it by chopping and hacking things. It runs poorly and the tranny's toast. Other than the engine/tranny, the vert has been stored and is very solid, so it's worth the time to bring back closer to the right engine size/type.
p.s. - looking forward to the swap meet... thanks,
Bill
