> Part #  is 191 905 351B.  Get this from a yard.  This part is common to:
> 84-87 4kq
> 81-87 CGT
> 82-87 quattro coupe
> 81-88 5k(all)
> 80-83 5kt
> 88-90 80 4cyl
> 88-92 80/90 5cyl(all)
> 89-91 100

don't mean to be picky, but chop off the 5000 somewhere around '87, and
drop the 80/90 and 100 from the list.

Those all used different systems (the 5 cyl ones have a more complex
knock sensing control module, the 4 cyl I can't remember but it is
different)
