    Mk1 Kjet pummp into a mk2

    What's involved with this? My main pump has died and am now carless and it's stuck in the middle of BF no where!

    Pretty sure they are different. The MK1 GTI pump is inline. The MK2 is like the photo above.

    you could fit a mk1 pump with tonnes of modifications..BUT.cheaper to buy the MK2 pump than to modify it, and a lot less effort.

    The mk1 pump works different, and will not fit into the surge Tank of a mk2, running one inline would involve doing away with the surge tank accumulator and you would have to make up new piping and custom Banjo fittings...So as far as a patch up job...It won't work.
    I think your MK2 is also Digi??? Kjet would pump way way too much pressure.

    nah.. It's a Kjet. 84 GTI. If I could find a mk2 pump I would fit it, but at the moment, I've changed the lifter pump in the hope it is that but no joy!
