Hi everybody , it looks like a great trove of info this website , thank you in advance .
The reason for my post is to confirm what type of transmission came with the 4.0 l engine that is in the back of my Volkswagen Karmann Ghia .
Its been many years since I ve had time to work on it , (23 ), its always been garage kept, turned over faithfully by the nut on pulley , unfortunately life got in the way and Im just finding time now to dive back in , but its been awhile and would like to double check some things before jumping back in .
Engine bolted to a Volkswagen 091 bus manual tranny , via engine adapter by Kennedy engineering in California. I have the wiring harness from original vehicle and that is the first direction Im heading in, but I cant recall when I bought engine and harness from the wrecker back in the mid 90 s for sure if engine was from a manual transmission or auto.
Through talking with an electrical wiz at work , he is hoping it indeed is from a manual as the ECU may be a real headache if it thinks its supposed to communicating with a auto tranny.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated,
Thank you Dean
