Re: Difference pb-DX engine
The PB engine was a Passat MK3 engine that run with Digifant, same 112 bhp as the DX.
No idea about the leads though!

Re: Difference pb-DX engine
Also the PB engine was fitted to late Mk2 golf GTi with the Digifant fuel system
Euro car parts list the same part numbers so I would guess the fit but I can't be 100% sure.

Re: Difference pb-DX engine
No worries. When I had a MK2 golf GTi for a short time with the PB engine it looked the same as the DX engine but with a different fuel system.
Let us know what you find out.

Re: Difference pb-DX engine
I had a PB in a mk2 Goof - I didn't find it as much fun as the earlier K-jet unit, but it may have just had a hard life (mind you the K-jet was at 167,000 miles and still strong when I scrapped the car!)mark1gls wrote:No worries.
