[Vwdiesel] stuck stick in cylinder

[S P SHERMAN]

Have not been following this thread closely, but have you tried pulling the GP and injector, putting an air hose connection to the GP hole and placing a screen/net over the other and see what comes out? The net/screen is just so you can tell what is coming our (or not).
 
If you do try this, be sure that the valves on theat cyl are closed, otherwise you may force the stick elsewhere to cause trouble. (and of course, if you can't move the crank because of this stick in there, and the valves are not aligned right, then this probably isn't an option). And be sure the engine crank is locked (in gear on a manual tranny), so the cranck won't spin around on you from the air pressure.
 
Anyhow, if you had not thought of this, and the valve positions cooperate, this might be an easy fix. At least you should have little to loose.
