Just happened to breeze through my '81-82 FPM and noticed some models although designated as "2door,4door,hardtop" are marked as "FE" meaning Fuel Economy.

 

Those 1982 models are:

2door w/1.8 (and not the 1.6 also available! :-\ )that had a 5spd (JF1AF43B*CB)100001 and after

 

4doors w/5spd 1.8 (JF1AB43B*CB)200001 and after

 

and Hardtops (a.k.a. "Coupes as many of us refer to them) 1.8 5spd (JF1AW44B*CB)30001 and after.

 

Seems weird how none of the 1.6's are FE.

 

I do not have my other FPM's handy from '83 and up.But if someone else does I'd like to know if they continued the "FE"....and don't forget,it's not a model,it's a listed feature.

 

The REAL FE was produced in '78 and '79.

 

More info-my '81 FPM did not show this same info.No mention of FE in the same model/feature/classification listing.

 

See you late tonight or tomorrow!

Cheers

hmmmive always seen them marked as glf's

You've seen a 4door or wagon GLF???

 

Don't confuse the GLF with what I posted,please.This is not a model designation,its a feature,notated on certain models.

 

We own a 1982 GLF automatic,and it's not part of the "FE" group.

Probably soemthing like my 82 DL wagon, 2wd 5speed overdrive, and 1BBL carb. Not too long on power, but got 35+ being beaten. Downside was, it had to be beaten to make it keep up with traffic.
