Milton, second from Flywheel End, that would be #3 Injector line, that one
is not Turbo Diesel specific. I have that line and I'm in South Everett, I
don't think I can get it to you today though but I could in the morning.

Well doesn't look promising for my July 4th meeting at Loren's Pacific Beach
get together. Seems the 2nd from flywheel end metal line from the injection
pump (85 Jetta TD engine) has sprung a pinhole leak where it turns to go
into the injector. I saw a emergency replacement flexible line in Parts
Place catalog; I laughed when I saw that item at the time! But not laughing
now. I didn't expect a metal line to develop a pinhole leak. There wasn't
any metal to metal tube rubbing. Biut the injector lines are missing the
rubber separators, so maybe some vibration created a stress point. Anyone
experience this kind of problem? Unfortunately 4th of July is not good day
to find parts. Do you think I could remove and cut the line and splice in a
piece of hose with hose clamps? Its high pressure in those lines. Anyone do
this? Also, anyone know of some parts place around Seattle that might have
the Banjo? Milton.
