[Vwdiesel] problem with diesel

[mark shepherd]

Just see if you can turn it by hand backwards. Use a spanner on crank bolt 
but don't do it more than enough to see that it is a clash rather than a 
seizure. Don't over do it incase youundo the crank bolt, but then if this 
action does, then bolt wasn't tight enough and has revealed itelf before 
killing engine...
