[Vwdiesel] Looking for a 1.6NA air box to buy

[Bryan Belman]

Hi, my 1.9na in the van is using my original 1.6na air box for filter.  It has an odd shaped rubber connector that is on the top of the air filter.
A 1.6na air box top has a round connector, 3 inch hose maybe.
I am looking for one of these.
my 1.6na from the vanagon has an oval shaped air hole for a rubber boot to attach to a water seperator air box coming down from the air intake snorkal.
this boot is totally falling apart and the are NLA.
so, if I swap to a 1.6na intake box (top) I will have a round hole and can use almost any intake boot hose.

thanks in advance.
let me know if have one.
This is a link to vagcat showing the air box from a 1991 Jetta 1.6na

Hi Joe;
    It doesn't seem like it to me. I have probably 50,000 plus on the Dasher
since USLD but remember most all 1.5 and 1.6 engines are going to have old
pumps on them which are bound to leak sooner or later. I have been playing
with Rabbits for close to 20 years and if you resurrect a diesel that has
set for many years the pump may want to leak.
