Steering column isn't riveted but has auto breaking screw (the head of the screw break when tighten with torque). You need to use a hammer and a chisel (? Burin en français)

I like your seats...where did you get them? I need some for another project I am working on.
Thanks, Matt.

Seats are from a Mk3. IIRC these are called VAG Sport seats and are not that seldom. Got them for 30 eur just because i wanted some kind of bucket seats and did not want to wait around for some Mk3 GTi Edition seats to show up, which are rare, but sweet as hell.
Meanwhile the car is running great, apart from a smell of fuel for the last month, which wasnt an obstacle to get it MOT'ed this month. Yesterday, took a look at the IJ pump and theres a drip every 5 seconds from the rear part of the pump. Most of the time it is the large circular seal which fails, but from what i see, theres a seal arround a circular thingy into which the timing hole screw goes into and it has a rubber seal arround it, which seems to be leaking. Ill look at it again, with a USB endoscope before ordering a pump gasket kit this evening.

One another thing which bothers me, is vibration. I dont know if its fixable but after ive sat in an AAZ swapped Mk2, i cant let go. The AAZ engined car had alot less vibration than my AFN. IIRC it used stock Mk2 diesel motor mounts. I use Corrado G60 subframe and mounts, and the vibration is quite unpleasant, especially, when cold. Though, two of the mounts are hydraulic. (front and pass side)
I have also tried swapping a front mount from a B3 2.0, and the vibration was exactly the same.
Is really the TDi engine vibrating more than a TD?
Last thing i can think of, is using a Mk3 pass mount but that means i have to change the subframe aswell, which involves a different host of problems.

Hi!
You cannot do anything for vibrations !
I'm running the same engine in my mk2 with stock TD engine mounts and vibrations are here!
TD engines are a lot smoother!

All else equal, the TDI engines give more noise and more vibration than the older IDI engines. Most people are very surprised by this fact due to how smooth and quiet the stock TDI vehicles are. It is ALL due to different bolt-on parts, e.g. hydro mounts, engine cover, hood pad, belly pan, etc, etc...

That, and the ECU programming. The electronic TDI shines in idle smoothness as it can set ignition timing particularly retarded plus it has per-cylinder compensation for the injectors. Both are much easier to achieve electronically.

Yeah and in mechanical all this things are impossible, injectors must be very good balanced in a diesel shop.
But it's hard to find a good diesel shop nowadays!

I do not believe that the VE tdi's adjust timing per injector. The ECU uses only the #3 injector as feedback reference.

There is definitely injector compensation on all the VEs.
The #3 sensor is used for timing control but the crank speed sensor is used to measure the difference in engine speed as each individual cylinder fires. The ECU then stores a value for 1/2/4 and uses the QA in the pump to equalize fuel delivery at low engine speeds.
The VE ECUs, even the early ones, have misfire detection too.

Finally freed up some time to swap the K24 for a T2. Unfortunately the result is not what id hoped for - the clock still shows the same 9 psi boost, although lag has almost disapeared and the butt dyno says things are better now.
So probably its time to look at the exhaust system, which is stock diameter, has mk3 flame arrester at the front and a stock silencer at the rear. Ill try removing the silencer first and see what happens.

Cool Excited to watch your build. How did you decide between 6 wide and 7 wide?
Do you mean wheel width?

Hello.
Nice car! Was it a standart 70hp 1.6 TD Golf?
Unfortunately I can't understand everything.
Clutch has started slipping inevitably, so im looking for a CTN or ASD box to replace the 020 4T i have at the moment. That will also cure the 3rd and 4th gear problems i have currently.
I am going to use a flywheel and clutch assembly from a G60 Corrado which i have already.
Where are those gearbox from?
What about gear ratio? Shorter than TDI gearbox?
All else equal, the TDI engines give more noise and more vibration than the older IDI engines. Most people are very surprised by this fact due to how smooth and quiet the stock TDI vehicles are. It is ALL due to different bolt-on parts, e.g. hydro mounts, engine cover, hood pad, belly pan, etc, etc...
I didn't know about hydro mounts. Can they be fitted on older VWs?
Thank you all.

The car was a gasoline 1.3 carb (pierburg 2E3) with a catalytic converter, as odd as it might be, they existed and its a separate model from the 1.3 carbed ones with a name 1.3 KAT.
It had a clutch from a regular 1.6td which has 64 ps iirc.
CTN box, which i got is a TDi box from a B4 Passat, it is mostly paired with the same AFN engine i have.
There are numerous links on the interwebs with VW gear ratios, lookup the boxes by code you are interested in, for example:
https://www.zelek.com/diagram_charts/diagramlist.htmMy subframe cannot be equipped with a Mk3 TDi hydro mount, i think i will get a Mk3 subframe, cut the mount off of it and weld it onto my Mk2 subframe.
A local guy i know did that to his Corrado TDi conversion without much hassle.
