assuming it's a 91 waterboxer Doka..
( engine type is coded in the VIN btw.....whether gas or diesel, from the

at the base of the oil breather tower..
on the aluminum case, look for "MV' ...which would be a 2.1 waterboxer
engine.
two letters followed by numbers.
If DH .........not likely at all, but that would be a 1.9 wbxr.

you can look up an VW engine code on the internet quiet easily.

POV - point of view.
     - previously owned vehcile
