[Vwdiesel] GAS TO DIESEL IN AN 85 JETTA

[lbaird119 at aol.com]

  I've ordered the replacement adjusters.  I think it was via dealer but not positive.  May have been aftermarket through my supplier.  Seems like it was about $7 each.  Luckliy I only needed one or two but still way cheaper than a new light, especially for the Quattro.

I seem to recall that the fuel stop solenoid power works nicely from the gasser's distributor or coil wiring.  Fuel pump relay is basically what/where the GP relay goes, not postive if wiring is larger for the glow plugs...  Easy to utilize it or something similar, along with a relay and either a push button or if, like me, you prefer the automatic-ness of the glow plug relay, it's not that hard to wire stuff up if you have a copy of the wiring diagram.

 have moved a diesel engine from a Rabbit, hooked up to a 5 speed tranny with a 
ew clutch and pressure plate into an 85 Jetta.
Probably normal problems making this switch including but not limited to the 
irection of the input hose into the radiator not to mention that the upper 
adiator hose for diesel has that small hose branching off and going to the 
eservoir tank.  (Coolant system is done.)
Anyway, any one that has done a job like this could probably save me a bunch of 
ime by letting me know how you solved the source for the electrical supply for 
he glow plugs, the electrical for the injection pump and any other electrical 
'm not even thinking about yet.
I've removed the fuel pump and filter from the gasoline system but retained the 
nternal fuel tank pump.  Haven't, as of yet, gotten the fuel lines spliced in 
or my supply and return.  
What's a good source for the plastic adjustment fittings for the headlights?
Is there any other problems I haven't even considered yet?
I'll appreciate any knowledgeable insights.
