Re: Activating glow plug light in the cluster
The purpose of the solenoid is to increase the juice to the glow plugs for better starts and to keep all the high current out of the cab to avoid a fire.

Re: Activating glow plug light in the cluster
Yea it would be easier but I'm particular. This is something that a future buyer would appreciate.surfcam wrote:I think it would be easier to put a separate light on the dash wired to the live side of the solenoid. Under wise you would have to do a pin out connection on the wiring harness going into the cluster.

Re: Activating glow plug light in the cluster
As far as i can tell i need to plug a wire into the front of the fuse box where the glow plug L terminal would be plugged into. Since this isnt a diesel fuse block will it have the ability to receive a wire into it?

Activating glow plug light in the cluster
Wiring up a pushbutton system in my Passat mTDi converted car. Trying to figure out how to make the stock cluster glow plug light glow. The cluster is from an aaz passat so it is almost the same as a mk2 cluster. The glow plug led comes on when grounded. Im not a wiring wiz.

Re: Can N/A injector pump with altitude compensator be modif
yes just simply hook a boost line to the top most port on the aneroid. a bolt and banjo from a cis injector line works great. or the neccesary bolt and banjo barb can be purchased at the dealer for 20 dollars.

Re: Weird idle when cold
as I understand it... idle is to be adjusted on a warm engine. so just adjust down and see what it does. also check your static timing.
