A tale of woe leading from glow plugs to a ? dead engine ?

No I hadn't but thanks for thinking of me.

However I bought myself a Golf on the bay of fleas yesterday that has a 1Y engine in it. Which is going to get scrubbed and cleaned and tinkered with and merged with my dead engine to give me that little bit more oomph in the engine bay.

Thanks for the update and good luck with the transplant. Take lots of photos and do a thread on here to show us how you get on!!

Have you found this thread on here "1.6d to 1y the definitive guide" - might answer a few questions!

I paid someone to fit mine - well pleased with it so far!

Yes. Have read it a few times. And when I have the donor Golf in front of me I'll be reading it a few more times.
Taking it slow with lots of research.
