I would be careful with this fitment to the early 5K diesel. My
dad used to have a '80 diesel as well, but something went wrong with
the smoke screen procedure and it ran  permanently when a valve
bust in the motor. Not too dangerous as the car could still go, but
with one valve completely buggered, only thing was that the smoke
screen was on permanently. :)
