Hi gang,Quick question.  On the driver's end of the fuel injection pump on =
a 1983 VW Turbodiesel, there are two outlets.  The lower outlet is clearly =
for the return fuel line.  The upper outlet with a banjo fitting has a smal=
l soft rubber hose attached to it and is about 4" long.  What is this for a=
nd where does it go?   I am trying to get this engine started.  Have checke=
d fuel delivery - OK, air purged out of lines - OK, air filter changed,  ti=
ming right on the mark with micrometer, and starter speed OK.  Guess the la=
st thing is compression, but don't have a compression gauge to fit the dies=
el.  So I am guessing overheated, warped head along with rings that have lo=
st their tension.  Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks, E.J.
