So, thanks to help from the list, I got connected with an ECM. It will
arrive in a couple of days. I then hopped into the trusty old '85 TD to
get to work thankful that I have a backup car. Except that it won't
quit backing up. The frame that supports the clutch pedal broke in
three places while I was going down the driveway and I couldn't
therefore disengage the clutch to get it out of reverse. The rest of
the day was spent discovering that this is a part VW did not ever intend
to be replaced. Fortunately, there's a muffler shop a bike ride away
that has a MIG welder. At least I now know why the clutch seemed spongy
for the longest time....
