   Been searching for a while this morning but can anyone tell me if a phase 1 vtr loom will work with a phase 2 vtr engine?
   I know my phase 1 needs the phase 1 loom but want to know if it will plug in with the phase 2 engine ok.
   
   I know I'll need the single plug mk2 ecu though. The single plug ecu will work with an engine that had a 3 plug ecu won't it?
   Hope questions make sense

   your trying to plug a THREE plug loom into a SINGLE plug ecu? you need the loom and ecu to be either both single or three plug.
   
   
   mk 1 engine is single plug. to use a mk2(three plug) loom you would need to change sensors iirc.

   No, ill get same loom to match the ecu but will a single plug loom work with a later mk2 engine still?
