Water Pump help

[Spyda]

I took a water pump from a mk2 GL 8v.

What i need help with is, will it fit my gti. Mechanic says it doesnt everything els says it will.

There's only 2 kinds of pumps on ETKA for 1.6-2.0 litre cars. One for KR/PL and PG engines and the other for everything else. So unless you got one off a 16valve or G60 it'll go one.

There is also 2 ways to buy the pump. On it's own or with the housing.

If you get the housing one, which I would always do because splitting the old pump off the housing is always a b itch of a job. The power steering pump and air con compressor have to come off to get access to it.

Check the size of the boss where the pulley goes on. The 1.8> are a smaller size. Thats the only difference,
