Serp setup on a 1.6

This is a painfully easy swap. It appears that the bracket is the same for AC/non AC. All of these parts are from a 95 AAZ (1.9TD)

You may run into problems clearing the frame rails. I have not installed the engine into a car yet so I don't know.

Mk1 guys are going to need to take a grinder to the IP/PS mount bracket



Install 4 of the 5 bolts. These are serp specific




This is the missing bolt, probably not too big of a deal.


The bracket will slide right on. Notice I've swapped on a mk2 IP bracket for the pictures










You can see the PS pump is still driven by a v-belt. All the needed adjusters are on the PS pump.

Here is the other style where the WP is also driven by a v-belt

i dunno about you guys... but that setup looks identical to an aba serp setup...

when i get my block back from the machine shop i'll have to try and bolt up my aba setup from my 1.8t thats waiting to go in my mkII (yes i have an aba setup on an older aeb 1.8t) the 1.8t isnt ready to go in yet, still need an intake manifold custom made for me, and an oil return line...

foxracer1:
Good idea making a tech tip thread.

It would be great to see some pictures of an ABA setup as well. I'm not sure about the ABA but there might be problems with it clearing the timing belt, they are usually wider on diesels

Darth Garry:
I have the ABA setup at home, I'd be very interested if it fit!

Thanks for the great writeup.
