    Its only the vacuum sender that you need to change, as all G-lader motors have a similar 1 bar version.

    looked a bit at the wiring today. damn i wish there was any possibility to have the tool and the pins for the connectors on the car. need to shorten a bunch of wires, and there is many wires that has been broken a few mm over the connectors..

    look in ETKA

    VW

    Scroll down past all the various models to Elekt.Verbind.-Elemente 1947>>

    Model year 1989

    Section 9 Electrical systems

    all the individual wires, plug housings & individual electric connectors are listed there!

    yeah, i saw that, but still very unsure of what kind of pins that the plugs use .. its for these normal 2/3 prong engine harness connectors, for the fuelrail and such

    For once the drawings in ETKA (of the pins & plugs) actually physically resemble the actual item, and the plugs are listed by the number of connections they have.

    sooooo… operation wiring.. damn this sux, first of all, i didnt label the wires like i should when i removed the harnes (yeah i know, i dumb)

    so. a few of them are easy, but there is a bunch of them which isnt that easy to figure out. and since the wiring is out of a passat g60 syncro, it does not have the right length on the cables, so that is no pointer

    and, most of the wiring is cracking up and that sucks

    anyhow, some pics of the wiring, showing what i mean by cracking wires

    does anyone have wiring schemes over the G60 engines? my bentley does not :(

    oh,and some other stuff :) the interior is getting closer too :)

    a little dirty, but that can be fixed with water and soap

    and a pic of my new racimex boost gauge, love the looks of it, too bad i don’t have matching (new) oiltemp and pressure gauges aswell

    finally got some small things done, been cutting a soldering the wiring loom today, not finished yet, but i’m finally getting somewhere now :)

    i’ll let the pics do the speaking, this is boring work.
    (i have not used regulare tape for the wrapping, its butyl rubber, no glue, it fueses together by itself, great to work with and can take heat and cold with ease)
