you need one that came off an engine with a dizzy, the DIS ones are different. Also the very early GTE ones were different as well.

would of saved hassle if the dude had the paperwork from the company that did it but oh well.
I think bosch make remanufactured ones that are apparently better than standard.
125 quid though. second hand i think is the way forward.

early and late air mass meters are not interchangeable from looking at your pic you need an early pre 92 afm
