Which steering wheel

Hi all, I have an 89 devon, I have fitted the corsa b power steering upgrade but I'm now finding the steering wheel is to big,

I was wondering what vw steering wheel will be the best fit, I don't mind minimal modification

Thanks for your time

Re: Tailgate not sitting right after fitting new seal

Take the seal back off and see what it fits like then,

I have a new seal on mine and it is shocking it holds the entire tailgate off, I have tried adjustments and tried a different seal, I think the aftermarket seals are to thick,

Mines watertight so I've left it

Re: Drip from water pump

Changed mine today, 1.9 dg, it's fairly easy,

I removed the bottom pulley to remove cross over pipe behind as I have a larger oil pump and no flexible join,

About 2 hours work all done

Re: Starting problem

That is exactly as I do it all the time, my concern is if I DONT press the acc pedal it will keep turning over but not fire, hot or cold, it's not a case of then pressing the pedal to the floor and starting it I will just turn over, the battery is good and I will spin on the starter for ages

Re: Starting problem

Yes pierburg, if I don't press the acc pedal it won't start then I have to mess around with fuel pump pipe, I think it runs on the choke fuel when I press the acc pedal and then the pump takes over once running, if I don't press the acc pedal at any stage it won't start, I can't even start again, so...
