Does anybody know what are the differences between a JR engine and CS, JX, KY engines? Mostly in terms of internal tolerances for rebuilding. Or any JR manual?
Well the KY block was used for the 1.7 engine.
For a vanagon or something.
The pistons will work with 1.6 block/crank/rods pistons.
But you'll have to bore it to around 80mm.
Did you mean CY?
I heard those were in the Rabbit 1.6 turbo diesels.
CS is the non-turbo 1.6 Vanagon engine code.
JR is 1.6TD Rabbit/Golf (Same as MF)
JX is 1.6TD Vanagon.
KY is 1.7 non-turbo Vanagon.
If your engine is JR engine code, then I would recommend getting the Mk1 Bentley. Make sure it goes through '84.
