A pump from a Mk3 or Mk4 XR or RSTurbo will work fine. I know that the golf's used K-Jet so would imagine they would work but please check into that because I am just surmising. Good luck.

all good i found a old pump that leeked in the garage and tryed it out and got it going and for not being run for 3 years it sounds very nice and tight with 36000 miles on the clock.

so just need a new/good 2nd hand one and ill be driving it.

cheers
