Hi Neil, I can’t easily follow samba threads. Can you give me a little info about the thoughts on the 1.9 thread?

From their web page: *"This first system was comprised of:"* *......."9. New Delphi electronic control unit (ECU)—replaces NLA Digifant ECU and ICU (idle control unit)"* So, I would assume they kept that ECU in their latest design. There is speculation in a thread on the samba Vanagon forum regarding use of the new GW on a 1.9 WBX. Neil.
