Fw: [Vwdiesel] Injector tester

[Gerry Wolfe]

Active Fuel Injection on McGarrigle in Nanaimo... Haven't used them for VW
stuff, but have heard OK feedback re: marine diesel stuff.  They seem to
know what they're talking about with VW stuff e.g. owner knew off the top of
his head that the NA and TD injectors were different.
