[Vwdiesel] new N/A Injection pump question

[Shawn Wright]

My TD pump off Ebay has both the solenoid and the lever. The solenoid appears to have no 
effect when powered, but this doesn't mean much, as the pump is known to have other 
problems, so it may have been messed with. I'd love to hear about making a lever free cold 
start advance for my TD Westy! (that was the reason I bought this pump...)
