Default I've also heard there are a few coolant routing differences to address

it's definitely an AFC, and both engines are from manual transmission quattros.

Default Personally I'd start with the head gaskets, and work from there.

If it made it 20k with a bad head gasket it should go another 50-100k with a good one.

If I was going through the trouble to take the engine out of my car, there would be something bigger going back in ;p

Default Re: the 90 is an AFC. what kind of problems are you having?

As for my swap I'm running but with NO idle it doesn't even try. I have checked my vacuum thoroughly also cleaned my ISV and swapped coolant sensors.
