[Vwdiesel] Engine Questions

[Stephen Kraus]

I have nearly completed the 2.1l Turbo Diesel I am putting in the Jeep, I
have a couple questions:

Should the lack of the turbo keep the engine from running constantly? I can
get the engine started and it fires up but it acts like its choking, slows
down, and then stops firing. The longest I've gotten the engine to hold for
is about 30 seconds to a minute, that is without the turbo. I don't have a
reliable hose made to port the turbo air to the air intake yet.

Mike Strawbridge been a big help in both the headgasket job and torqueing
down the head (and letting me make a horrible mess of his garage)

I'm posting this to both the VW diesel list and the Jeep list because I'm
hoping with all the answers I get I should be able to piece together what I
need to do. I just want to remove that damned 2.8l V6
