geordiedoors 10 Posted January 1, 2020 Long shot I know, but I'm looking for options and the long shot of anyone having a swirl pot for my corrado k jet 1990 1.8.16v. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keyo 47 Posted January 1, 2020 (edited) I would try these three mate in descending order. All on facebook Chris Ferry or username on here lilfuzzer Brendon Moss of Dubstock Mathew Palmer Mk2 golf spares Here is a couple of threads that might help about uprating fuel pump or alternatives to a swirl pot. http://the-corrado.net/showthread.php?84555-16v-fuel-pump-complete-Wanted https://www.clubgti.com/forums/index.php?threads/upgrading-fuel-pump.282505/ Im wondering the Golf Mk2 16v swirl pot works or even the 8V swirl pot but as mentioned the Corrado has a different part number but the bracket is the same on both models that houses it to the underside of the floorpan.

geordiedoors 10 Posted January 1, 2020 Thanks for your reply mate. I will check out your links. I guess I should open a Facebook account then. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keyo 47 Posted January 1, 2020 Unfortunately chap it does help opening a FB account to source classic parts, mind you can just leave the profile blank or make up a name, no need to have your private details on facebook for the world to see. Club gti has alot of stuff on there something about using a MK3 filter and Mk1 pump. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keyo 47 Posted January 1, 2020 Check this thread out as well chap. https://www.clubgti.com/forums/index.php?threads/swirl-pot-replacement.286190/ https://www.merlinmotorsport.co.uk/p/obp-fuel-swirl-pot-1-litre-100mm-diameter-x-135mm-tall-obpa025 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

geordiedoors 10 Posted January 1, 2020 Thanks for the advice about Facebook, not found what I'm after yet, but options are much better Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keyo 47 Posted January 1, 2020 (edited) Thanks for the advice about Facebook, not found what I'm after yet, but options are much better �� I know matthew palmer has one but one of the brackets is broken that holds either the accumulator or fuel filter. drop him a message but you would have to drill a hole and use a cable tie for the bad bracket. You can always type in corrado breaking on facebook and see what comes up. Always pay via paypal for protection. https://www.facebook.com/groups/768808459938759/ Edited January 1, 2020 by Keyo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
geordiedoors 10 Posted January 1, 2020 I did message Mathew palmer awaiting response and the fella from dubstock is getting back to me with price and pictures of one he has tomorrow. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keyo 47 Posted January 1, 2020 (edited) Good stuff mate sounds promising. It is a really rare part because it was only ever made for a 16V KR Corrado. The Mk2 golf 16V is hard to get as well but more common, I keep a couple as spare just incase. Edited January 1, 2020 by Keyo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
geordiedoors 10 Posted January 1, 2020 Awesome thanks to yourself for your help. I will be doing the same and stocking up on obselete parts. Thanks again Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
