I'm looking to buy another Golf or maybe a jetta. Not worried about the interior or exterior, but I'm looking for something that's not leaking oil, coolant, or major mechanical/electrical hiccups. Shoot me a pic and a price and we can discuss things.

Thanks so much guys for all the input. First, i thought that if I kept the car cranking for 15-30 seconds straight, that it would drain the battery or burn out the starter motor. bu do it for at least 15 seconds and check? i'll do that http://www.thedieselstore.com/template/productOutput.php?partNum...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e-1PWvYBNWo&feature=youtu.be ive left the key turned to on for 30+ seconds several times. no fuel is coming out of those lines...the pump came with a tag that said it was tested. with all of the lines taken off at once, fuel only dribbles for a second from the bott...

I bought it from the diesel store online, got my tools from [removed by moderator] where would i get a fuel filter for such a thing? For this bottle, am i attaching it to the IN line? i got a bottle of diesel sitting outside from bleeding the lines. Rig up a bottle of fuel with a fuel filter on it t...

cam shaft is def at tdc, i got the locking plate in it, but idk about the crank shaft. i used the bentley as reference as to where it should be to be at tdc. flywheel tdc = crankshaft tdc or no? if the crank was NOT at tdc, wouldnt i hear some horrendous noise from piston valve contact?

http://www.jimellisvwparts.com/showAssembly.aspx?ukey_assembly=744395 number 7 on this blown up view? is it the little tooth looking thing on the spindle of the ip that goes into the gear? then it should be properly installed since there was one on the new pump. any possibilities i didnt put the gea...

i cracked the lines, hand pumped it, waited. turned the key to on, waited. then tried to start the car and nothing, not a drop. theres the fuel lines that come from the high pressure head into the metal lines to the injectors. from the injectors is a rubber hose thats connects to the other injectors...

primed the fuel lines by taking the return line off of the out nub on top of the pump, hand pumped until bubbles stopped coming out. fuel is in all of the lines, yes, primed the pump. primed it again when i installed new filter. Brand new pump, has never ran with this car. maybe i could use a vacuu...

i hear it clicking, but doesn't that mean that its working? this is a brand new injection pump, should it be faulty? any ideas on where i can find the exploded view of this component?

i now know what youre talking about. i thought that was a grounding wire of some sorts. its a yellow wire with a little jumper box on it. i tried a hot wire from battery to it, didnt start. i did NOT attach that wire to ground. i thought it was a ground because of the jumper box on the wire. heres t...

There are no wires on the pump except for the idle and accelerator switches and one ground. Ive been looking in the bentley and i can not find anything about a shut off solenoid on my car...

sorry, I've been scouring the web for weeks trying to fix this and I'm tired of telling the story. Was driving, hit a bump and the car shut off. It started right back up tho. An hour later, just getting on the freeway, the car feels likes its slipping out of gear, 30 seconds later it dies. Cracked t...

Car died, no fuel from lines, replaced injection pump. Timing is spot on, did several revolutions of engine, came back tdc. took off out line on top of pump, fuel comes out, no air in lines. checked glow plugs, definitely getting hot. i'm kind of at my wit's end with whats wrong with it. its got fue...
