Technical / Re: PB injector seats

Last post by mintysgt - August 27, 2026, 11:25:37 PM

Nope, they have black plastic seats screwed into the head, with out running out and checking, i believe just above where inlet bolts in. I'm of course replacing the o-rings top and bottom. Just unsure if the seats should be replaced

Pretty sure there aren't any seats, think they're just cut into the inlet manifold.
When I've rebuilt them in the past, I've just done the o rings and I believe top and bottom are the same, thought it's been a few years.

Mk2 Golf Chat / AGG/PG build

Last post by Marlbro - August 26, 2026, 06:03:23 PM

I’ve scored a great job lot of engine bits including an agg block and a very good condition pg(g60) head.

I’ve already stripped the block down and have ordered new bearings and a gasket kit. And given both the block and head a good clean and a lick of paint

I’m planning on running the digi setup and possibly down the line adding a turbo. But is there anything that could be an issue running the pg head on the agg block?

A standalone ecu isn’t out of the question but would like to remain as stock as possible. Hopefully running the distributor ect

Has anyone done a build like this before? I can’t find much online
Cheers !

Last post by mintysgt - August 25, 2026, 09:32:14 PM

Quick Question in middle of a rebuild, Having removed the injectors, i know its good practise to, but is there any reason that i must change the injector seats. Of course im replacing the o-ring seals top and bottom even if the head gasket kit only comes with 4 typically. Are the top o-rings the same as the lowers ?

Hi everyone!

I've just joined the club, so thought I'd say hello! I've recently bought a MK2 Golf GTI 1991, and I'm absolutely loving it.

Hoping to get to as many shows as possible and meet some of you along the way.

Looking forward to chatting with you all, and being a part of the community.

Heating & Cooling / Re: Monkeys guide to AC in your Mk2.

Last post by Monkey - August 18, 2026, 09:08:05 AM

Crikey, that's a long list of parts!

It looks like you have most of the pieces worked out, but you'll also need a AC specific shallow glovebox and lower dash trim as the ac evaporator housing is much larger than the stock mk2 one.
