mk2 1.9 td swap. pics and questions
« on: November 26, 2009, 09:03:25 pm »
Ok so im currently doing a 1.9 swap and i have a question about the one fitting on the back of the engine. I ended up swapping the t3 turbo and manifold to the 1.9 and this fitting is different.

Sorry for the sh!tty celly pics and the noob questions.


Is there anything i can do to make the fitting off the 1.6 engine work? or can i use a rubber hose?

Also, There was something attached to the small stock turbo that i have no idea what it is...

Once again sorry for being a noob. Do i use it with my t3? or take it off.

And there are wiring connections at the other end for it.


Alright sorry for all the bad pics... Hopefully this makes a little sense, im also swapping the complete mk3 harness with the motor aswell as the dash.

The car




Thanks again! I just wanna finish this swap.

See the oil return drain thread for info on the drain..

You can get a adapter and hose from ebay as a kit..

Picture two is the wastegate control valve..

You could get a 1.6TD oil pan, plug the hole in the block and use the stock 1.6TD oil return line.

Correct me if I am wrong but I don't think that the stock line would be long enough

The T3 already has it's own wastegate. What you have in the picture is useless to your swap
