Hey Gang
I have not being on the list much this winter but I am back now...
I just picked up a 5 cylinder Audi turbo diesel motor, 2.0 liter from an 83 
5000. I want to install it in either my 86 4000 quattro or 89 100 quattro. I 
have the engine apart, one fuel injector failed and burned out the glow plug 
plus the pistons have wear around the chamber insert (from a poor spray 
pattern I think). I am thinking a full rebuild since I know nothing about 
the motor, I already have a rebuilt injection pump.
So, now the questions-I need a vacuum pump, it is seized from sitting. I 
think either car needs one-the 4000 for brakes, the 100 for the climate 
control (brakes use hydraulic system) unless there is another source for 
vacuum but not on a turbo diesel right???)
I also need the v-belt pulley on the back of the head for the vacuum pump, 
it is missing.
Anyone have pics of this engine as installed in the car? Just to sort out 
mounts/accessories etc. I have to find out the engine positioning yet, if it 
will be in the right place or not and deal with a clutch-all turbos were 
automatic.
Anyone have any other problems/ideas etc that I might encounter?
Greg
