[Vwdiesel] Injection Pump Replacement This Weekend

[Bryan K Walton]

Hi again everybody,
	Well, its 8:32PM Saturday night, and things are much better
right now -- at least much better than they were last night.
	First, I want to thank everybody for your help and suggestions
regarding my problems last night.  And I'd like to thank Val for his
comment that I could remove the outer crankshaft pulley w/o removing
the A/C tensioner.  That worked for me.  
	Anyway, everything else has gone great from that point on.  I
have the new pump installed and the new timing belt on.  BTW, the
camshaft locking tool and the injection pump locking pin are REALLY nifty
tools and helped a lot with the TDC requirements.  Tomorrow I'll time
the pump, put the V-belts and alternator back on and finish up some
other minor little things.  Again, thank you everybody!
	One final question regarding timing: the new pump's VW part number
is 068-130-107AG.  According to Loren's web page here: 
http://members.aol.com/lbaird119/rabbit/pump/pump.htm
it looks like the most retarded timing for this IP is .88 +/- .02mm.  
Bentley says that for a 1981-1982 vehicle, which this IP date falls into, 
the minimum is .86 +/- .02mm.  I want to time this pump for maximum mpg.
Should I set it .86 or .84mm?
	And finally, when tweaking the pump timing, do I tilt the TOP
of the pump toward the front of the car, or toward the firewall in
order to retard the timing?

Thanks!
Bryan
