Hi All,
New to the forum so hello and thanks for having me.
After a long search I have just sourced a 1992 Mk1 1.6 Cab for a full resto. Its all there and still driveble…… except someone´s nicked the carb off it! Any suggestions for a good place to source a cheap or used one as a temporary measure as its a long way from me and over here you can´t tow. A recovery wagon will set me back about 200.00.
I will put some pics up as soon as I have some good ones so you can all laugh.
Cheers.

I think a 92 car will have a 1.8 engine as I think VW dropped the 1.6 engine towards to end of the production life?
I could be wrong…
Sorry can't be help with a 2nd hand carb.
Ebay may be?
Webber carb wil be easier to work on than a Pierburg but the webber will not give you any power gain but it is a simpler carb to work with.

Like Mark said above but I'm pretty sure it should be a 1.8 engine.
What makes you think it's a 1.6 lump?
