[Vwdiesel] Oil pump pick up tube

[ralph meyermann]

Yes it's me again bending your ears with more questions,thank you for your
patience!! The old pick up tube on my 1.6 is actually part of the oil pump
flange that will unbolt from the main body of the pump. My question is can
I swap that to the new engine's pump?? I figure they are both machined flat
surfaces and should interchange? Another question is should I put in a new
windage tray or just a gasket due to the approximately 45 degree engine
angle?? I fear the windage tray may not drain properly! I'm not a
mechanical dummy I just dont have much experience with VW's mostly domestic
engines and vehicles. Thanks again!!
