[Vwdiesel] timing belts

[Terry Briggs]

I'm getting ready to swap out the engine in my '86 golf na with a 1.6na 
out of an '84 jetta. All the jetta engine needs is a new timing belt 
and tensioner pulley. they aren't bad, it just sat for several years 
and was never started, so my plan is to yank the engine, change the 
belt and tensioner out while the engine is out of the car. I see the 
timing belts are listed as '85 to something like '94 and the others 
listed as '83 and '84, is there a real difference between them, there 
isn't a cost difference or anything listed.

Also any tips on the best way to pull the engine out would be 
appreciated. I've changed a lot of engines in the past, but haven't 
ever done a front wheel drive car before.
