The good news: I just found a complete 84 GTI CIS system for $75.
The bad news:
My son gets it for his wife...
It's still in a clean 84 GTI with a blown head gasket that has been parked for 6+ years.
Turns over by hand, not frozen. Has AC still holding pressure. The rubber/glass and body/interior are still good/rust free.
The worst thing wrong is that It'll need some rewiring, as the field mice were hungry in the engine compartment.(Field mice have strange tastes--They mostly like ignition wires, but will nibble off the little rubber covers off the FI connectors...)
This does NOTHING to put CIS on my 914.
Grrrr;-)
