Hi all,
I've finally found a good cheap gasser vw body to swap my diesel 1.6 into. I
have a 90 jetta diesel that's smashed on 3 sides.
I've been reading about this a lot and think I know what I'm doing. I'll
probably wire up a momentary contact switch to signal the glow plug relay. I
have silver bosch plugs, are those the fast or slow?
Both cars have shot exhaust. I was thinking of having a shop up the road put in
a 2" with a cherry bomb muffler. I've heard you don't need a muffler with a TD,
but how about a N/A?
The diesel engine has low oil pressure according to the dash light. Hopefully
it's nothing major, maybe a crapped out sensor?
I hope to do this next week. Any tips would be aprreciated!
Ken
looking forward to his 10th diesel!
