Hello,

Not many diesels in my area. Has anyone converted a gas car to diesel.
Would the diesel bolt to the same transmissions as the gas engine? With
diesel engine mounts would it be a direct bolt in? Just neet to change
flywheel, clutch, wiring? There is an early 80's jetta with a manual and
gas engine for sale for $500. Thinking of buying it if it is decent and
putting a 1.6 turbo diesel in it at a latter date.

Any ideas apprecitated!!!

Thanks,
Dan
