Asked this already on the MK2 Golf forum and got no answer so thought i'd try here.

My 1.3 golf has a pierburg 2E3 carb on it whereas my 1.9 T25 has the single weber. The Mk2 bods recommend the weber and i know people on here prefer the pierburg. Is it a simple task to swap the 2 over? Assuming i swap the jets? I'm a bit cautious because my golf is my daily driver.

cheers

Are they both running fine? - Then leave alone - :-Simples!
Alternatively source a carb for the T25 and play to your hearts content! - Leaving the daily runner to do what it does best - Daily Running
