[Vwdiesel] Nozzles?

[Dave Cook]

What was that rebuilder?  I was thinking, if nozzles would be a good idea, about a slight upgrade and chip.  Like we talked about a little at the tractor place.  And just plan for having to eventually replace the clutch from all the increased power. :)


I feel like my friend's '01 Jetta w/Auto is a bit quicker by the seat of the pants dyno (before his goes into limp mode as has been discussed here many times).  

I do need to get out VAGCOM and check the timing settings and such too.

I was told by a rebuilder that these nozzles are good for about 100K or actually less.  I'd suspect (mostly from James' experience) that if you go with an upsized nozzel, you'd really notice improved mileage (~5mpg?) and a slight increase in power.  Stock nozzle and your power would go down, due to being used to the worn - larger nozzles.

I have an '02 Golf TDI w/5-speed.

've noticed that upon cold-engine startup (and sometimes with warm engine), 
ven in warm weather, a puff of smoke.    

ixed use driving since January has yielded a pretty consistent 39-40 MPGs 
xcept for one rogue 35 MPG tank when I filled up at a different station.  

have not noticed any smoke while driving, or idling.  

he puff of smoke and slightly lower than expected mileage combined with 232,000 
iles makes me wonder about the nozzles.  

hat do you all think?  Recommendations?  Possibly a small upgrade?
