[Vwdiesel] 1.6 stuff on a 1.9 engine

[82 Diesel Westy]

That depends on which pump mounting bracket you use. 
If you can find a 1.9 bracket, then the lines may fit
or will require little bending.  If you use the 1.6
mounting bracket, the pump will be lower and you will
need to bend lines.

MAKE SURE to use a 1.9 timing belt, I was originally
told to use a 1.6 belt, wrong.  It did run, just make
it very hard to get the belt on and I could not get
lock pin in the pump.
