Re: ... another no start puzzle

I put the injectors on backwards, did a cold compression test, took a look at glow plugs in their natural habitat. Glow plug system good. injectors producing good looking spray, still can see no air in lines. Compression looks to be the problem, something like 300 200 100 300, cold, of course, with...

rims (al)

do any al(aluminum) rims fit a jetta3? (14"). or is it too heavy for some rims; i have an offer for 5 spoke rims and the spoke isnt very big; i want to make sure the rims will hold the extra weight, before i buy.

Re: Oil spewing out of breather 1.9l na

if the filter is up isnt the flange reversed, and you have the oil flow reversed too, is the brass screw part of a line? on top of the flange, with filter pointing down, you have prob 2 fittings, 1 for oil pressure sensor, and 1 if you have a turbo for oil line. other than getting flange straightene...

Re: Pump not pumping?

in both of my mks i have a mark on the Outside of the pulley (1 tooth), corresponds with a mark about 11oclock on timing tin, right there the pump pin slips in.
not too say, i cannt remember seeing too much if any of pump bracket as tin covers it up.

Re: Pump not pumping?

i figure the best thing first is to see exactly where you timing is at now; put it to tdc, check pump is at tdc, and then the cam will either be at #1tdc, or #4. thats if the pump has 1 hole for pin, if it has 2, well you ll have to do more to figure it out.

Re: Pump not pumping?

if you have cam tool and pump lock it should start like that; id say glow plugs is next to start; getting pump right on is much better, for many reasons. but it definitely should start, run a jumper to glow plugs, and try,,if that works you have to troubleshoot gps, if not you still may need New gps.

Re: charging

i had, back in the 80s and 90s a couple of t/1's that had generators or swap-overs from gen to alt. so i know about voltage drop. none of those cars had a/c, that seems a lot of voltage drop for an a/c, and 12.7 would seem the minimum charge, i ll see when i get a new alt. i do believe the change up...
