84-85 Golf Intake Manifold

Does anyone know where I could find a 1984-1985 Golf  intake manifold for a
1800cc engine with hydraulic lifters for a single carburetor? Will pay
reasonable costs.

    Larry,

    Depending on what type of fuel injection system you have, there are many
    possibilities…vacuum hoses, airflow sensors, etc. etc.

    Personally, I’d take it to a service facility.
