INFO NEEDED MK5 ENGINE

Postby BUNGAL » Sun Jan 03, 2010 6:17 pm

I new here i have a couple of tippers in the past but have just got a mk5 swb. looking at the engine it is missing a link bar from the throtle to a buterfly valve on the inlet. and there is no vac pipes from the egr valve. i just need some pictures or some advice of what else may be missing. it still drives fine but cant work out why these bits are missing. its not a banana manifold engine if that helps.

Someone has disconnected the EGR valve by the sound of it.
The van will run fine as it is :wink:

Sounds like it's had the EGR mod, is the butterfly tied open? if so leave it like that it will go better :D
