Assuming we're trying to crossmatch a FD for your ur-q, Bosch tells me the
only direct cross is from an early MC code 5000tq(1/85-7/85). As to whether
another model would *work*, I'd say bolt it up and break out a pressure
gauge...

Standard disclaimer that ur-q motors are expensive to replace, test at your
own risk.
