Hi All

Have seen this on an unrestored car…does anybody have anymore details…? I assume the 022 refers to the 1.7L but what about the other number?

Any insight would be appreciated…thanks

Wow...I think you are on to something. I dont knwo 1.8L throttle bodies. Wonder if the 1.8 owners brain trust can survey their car for the TB ports and dizzy PN.

Great job...

all right youz two
@JeffBowlsby & @StarBear .

part # on throttle body of mine.
022 133 067A
with a H above it.

wouldn't you know it - does not accord with parts catalogue #022 133 062 H.
except for maybe the H bit, sort of.



this made me think someone's whacked in a replacement throttle body before i got it.
did a search on web, threw up a lot of stuff that has already gone down on this website 10 years ago. you have already brushed up against this one before jeff.
everyone got a headache out of it back then and no one had their head around it except dave darling and capn krusty.

point 1.
turns out the part# on my TB is right. same as other 74 1.8s so something short circuits in the parts catalogue where VW does a part number resequence or whatever for the 1.8s and its not in there right.
the parts catalogue is right for D jet 1.7 TBs PN. they do have the 022 133 062 number - i inspected a random ebay photo .

point 2.
in that thread from 10 years back someone posted a 75 1.8 with throttle body part #
022 133 067C. it was a cali i believe with EGR etc.
i conclude that the 1.8s have throttle body part #s that are 022 133 067 followed by a Letter for region/chronological variant identification.

there are at least 2 versions an A in 74 and a C in 75.

i can't read my distributor PN at the moment.
i need a magnifying glass hooked up to a robot to crawl down there and read it.
tried taking a photo. just blurs.

what this survey would need from owners of 1.8s is

as suggested above the PN of dizzy and TB.
but also the pic of the engine bay sticker (EC-A or EC-B).

------

its possible that the 1.8 throttle body PN cast in is an audi part #?
VW part # in the catalogue might correspond or equate via internal code.
its got audi symbol cast in as well as VW.
