2005 Golf Engine Stand Alone?
« on: August 10, 2018, 01:44:18 pm »
...so I rebuilt a 1990 Jetta engine for marine use with the help of this forum a few years ago

...now I have a 2005 Golf which will be scrapped soon because its body is no longer good due to salt and gravel

...can I pull its engine and run it without all of the computer input in another marine application?  Can it be stripped down enough and simply wired with a throttle cable?

Thanks

Craig

Is it an ALH or one of the PD motors?  I would assume 2005 is PD.  In that case, going mTDI would not really be feasible.  If it is an ALH, then mTDI is very easy.
