[Vwdiesel] More Quantum Questions?

[mark shepherd]

Agrred towing will start it now.
If it doesn't then there is something strange with the pump. Thatbolt with 
the gauze is a bit iffy The gauze should be a nice neat factory fit. I 
wonder if the bolt is some kind of replacement... Anyway towing would be the 
easiest way to go. Replace fuel supply back to/from tank now.
This is a shimmed head, and not hydraulic, isn't it?
