My question is this, I found someone selling a Giles rebuilt Superpump from their MK2 1.6TD and I was wondering if it's a straight bolt up to my 83 1.6td or if it needs mods to work or maybe it won't work at all. I'm a noob and I'm learning as I go lol
Straight bolt in!
You do of course have to set the timing as part of the pump swap. It is a good time to do the timing belt if it hasn't been done in recent memory since you need to do most of the same work.

you should ask what the pump was setup for...
What about a Giles pump for a 1.9 AAZ? Here's the original post:
I have an almost brand new Giles pump for a 1.9TD AAZ engine for sale. Almost brand new as it was used for less than 2 months (maybe 1500km). Pumps work great, great performance for the short time I had to enjoyed it before the car decided to fall apart. A bit sad to let it go, but I have to reduce my car "collection", and the dead Jetta needs to go.
Specs:
"Stage 1" rebuild
5200 rpm redline
for up to 1.5bar (22psi) turbo pressure
I will also include the sprocket and injector hardlines (x4)

I agree with the above - ask Giles, he's a great guy and suppose can tell you everything you need to know about "his" pump. Have the numbers ready when you call/email him.
Thanks for all the great info!
