Standard 1.9 Throttle Assembly

[MikeC 10]

Just a quick question.

I have an AVO throttle on my standard 1.9 non cat Ph 1.5.

I have sourced a replacement from a '91, a solex version.

Wondering if there is any difference between the two?

I don't believe there to be any different throttle bodies for the 8v 205 GTI but there are several brands.

 

I've got AMC on the inlet manifolds I just checked downstairs here, bar one which I couldn't find a brand name on but as the inlet manifold stud pattern is the same on all years (even the cat equipped with a plastic inlet manifold), I doubt you'll find any differences.

 

Compare them closely but I don't think you'll find anything.

Cheers G for that.

 

Will try it out. Fairly certain there is nothin' wrong with my own. Just can't adjust the stud for the throttle stop.

Just can't adjust the stud for the throttle stop.

They are only a small screw & are often seized in the aluminium body so they shear off when you try to adjust them.
