[Vwdiesel] cam lock -- Pump Lock

[cass]

hello..
my name is cassie
and ive forgotten to remove the cam lock plate(file) :o)
its been 6 months since i last touched one.

so ,..now,
 leaving the oil plug out.
.or forgetting to connect
a heater hose (before filling)
((only to find out the messy way..))
is beginning to sound like almost acceptable
practice :o)
(how come you always remember what you forgot a nanosecond
too late?)

cassie.
slightly forgetful.

So we had a compatriate (H.C.) forget a cam lock plate--

Have others, besides me, left the inj pump timing pin in??
(Made the belt jump a few cogs)

  Done both!  Chipped one cam and the only time I ever left the pin in
a
car it was still in need of removing a broken alt. stud.  So I timed
it and
left with a lot of stuff still not on the engine.  Next time I needed
my pin
of it was gone.  Of course the guy they took it to for the broken stud
never say it in there.  :P  Never got the chance to try and start it
with
it in.  :)  I have started/cranked a few with a 1/2" drive rachet
still
hanging on the crank bolt though!
