I have a 1981 Rabbit PU from which someone removed the diesel engine and replaced it with a gas engine. The wiring has been butchered, but the body is in great shape for northern NE.
I'm considering buying a 1985 Golf diesel parts car in order to replace the PU's current engine with something similar to the original engine.
My question is: how similar would the engine setup be, and just as important, how similar would the wiring be in the engine compartment and under the dash? I would need to use it as a model to know what goes where.
Thanks,
Al Adams
