You need to find out what injection pump is on it, or the intended applicat=
ion for the engine.  The industrial engines use an injection pump with a di=
fferent governor suited for stationary (more constant load and RPM) applica=
tions.

I have the opportunity to buy a 75 BHP VW 1.9 diesel engine.  From what I
understand, it was used only very slightly for test purposes by VW.  I don't
know if it's a USA or Canadian engine, but it not the turbo.  The price is
right and with an air-cooled gearbox it should be a real improvement in my
82 diesel Vanagon.

I was wondering if anyone has experience with this motor and has any
comments on how well it may work, fit, etc.

Thanks in advance y'all.

Jon
