[Vwdiesel] Fwd: Cleaning needed?

[dieseltdi at verizon.net]

Clogged intake would be a logical starting place but I would also  
check all the hoses associated with the turbo and the bolts on the  
manifold.  I have had two of mine back almost all theway out.  BTW a  
pressure washer is a fast, but somewhat messy way to clean the intake  
manifold.  Hayden

" Those who are willing to sacrifice Liberty for Security, deserve  
neither Liberty nor Security."  Ben Franklin
"Dictatorships all have common factors:  a government controlled by  
one party, a leader who claims to have special powers outside the law  
to keep the country "safe", secret prisons where people are locked up  
without charges or trial and government opponents are branded as  
unpatriotic and charged with aiding the enemy."
