Im using a mk4 alh automatic trans starter in my mk2 td and it cranks that thing over crazy fast.

Now is that because it is actually stronger? or has 745k less miles on it then your 20 year old one had? lol

Do you have a p/n for the starter? Pics I've found on it show that it has a different nose drive mechanism than my 91/92 MK2 starter. Just to be clear, your MK2 has a 020 tranny right? Does it have to be a MK4 ALH automatic starter or can it be a MK4 ALH manual starter? What are the diferences?

manual starter has the 02a 02j flywheel. The mk3 and mk4 manual starter will not work. Auto's do theough. different flywheel.

Manual mk3 starter WILL work, provided its from an AAZ, or ABA car..
