87 jetta fuel system

[stewy]

Hello i have just picked up a 87 Jetta when i got the car it had the fuel tank and pump removed. I am unsure about how to re-install it. I have marked a picture with arrows i think the red arrow is for the line from the fuel and but the two thing on the side marked with black arrow i am unsure on what these are for.

Have you gone under the car to see if you can match it up? It looks like your missing your fuel filter and i believe those are brether vent for fuel tank.

I have seen a couple of MK1 Jettas in Oz,and quite a few Jetta 3 ex SA models,but never a MK2 ,although I beleive there are a handful of them in Oz,although I would still like to see one...

yes i do have the filter just wasn't in there at the time and yes i have tried to match it up it has two lines from the tank into the fuel pump and then two coming from the engine bay. I am also new to vw's so i can not guarantee that it is a mk2 but it is a 87 model 4 door sedan i will upload a picture of it when i can so you guys can verify it. the car looks the same as the jetta on the first fast and furious movie

Was it a South African import ???

The MK2 Jetta put VW China on the map,and was a huge worldwide success for VW,expecially in the US.

i got a picture of the car it is in good condition apart from the bonnet i have also taken a picture of the fuel line from the tank

I am sure it is a South African built one,has changed the Jetta headlights for Golf GTI lights,and the big bumpers from later models.

Also non Jetta alloys.Looks like a great car though.How much mileage has it done ?

[stewy]

cant remember how many it has done but it has got the 2.0l injected engine in it now aswell will ger more pics as more happens i just would like to figure out the fuel system

Those 2 pipes are the supply and return. Have a look under the bonnet at the fuel distributor and you'll be able to work out which way it is. I can never remember, much safer to look.

See if you can get a Haynes manual, there'll be good pictures in it.
