Title: Does a '92 NA 1.6 have oil squirters?
Post by: 6011 on June 02, 2007, 10:34:01 pm

I just got a '92 NA jetta parts car. I am using a bunch of parts on my 88 jetta  TD and was thinking of dropping the motor in my Samurai. I would like a turbo in my sammy and I hear the main roadblock to turboing a NA block is the lack of squirters. The Acme Adapters FAQ claims that from about 1990 on the NA block had oil squirters too ( http://www.acmeadapters.com/faq.php ) What do you guys think?

I won't really be doing an oil change as this is just a parts engine but It does have a dent in the pan and I have a better one to put on so I can have a look. Where should they be exactly? under the pistons I know but at the front of the block or the back? Does anyone have a link to a section drawing showing their location?

thanks

They are towards the front of the car, near the flywheel side of each cylinder.
