I thought I'd like to see pics of everyone elses projects as well as show my
own.
Current Work that has been completed on my 1989 VW Diesel 1.6NA Jetta:
Repairs on Coolant intake
Repairs on rear brake lines and front calipers (Nice to have all my brakes
working instead of having to hold the pedal to the floor)
Repairs on 4th Cylinder Fuel Line and glow plug (Vibrations were causing the
glow plug end to snap, putting a piece of rubber around the GP has helped
tremendously)
Replaced Transmission fluid (Of which there was almost nothing left, not
good since its the original transmission)
Removed AC Compressor and re-belted alternator (works much better now)
Replaced PS Pump and Pulley
Removed AC pulley from crankshaft which was rubbing against the V-belt on
the PS, Water Pump, and Crankshaft, causing it to snap
Replaced 10W30 oil with 15W40 (who puts 10W30 in a diesel?! It was so fun
cleaning that gunk out of the cylinders)
Re-built and cleaned engine and cylinders, put a new head gasket on
New clutch and machines clutch disk
Replaced the speakers
Re-wired Glow Plug Relay and added a socket for a 50 Amp fuse.
New Starter
What She Needs:
Front Shocks
Rear Springs
Trim
And now for Pictures!
