i over exagerated it was only 40 psi. but still that's alot.

I do have one I intend on putting on. ive read on other forums Giles apparently has said that he has ran 150 psi pusher pumps with no noticeable effect on internal pump pressure and dynamic advance. He also reccomends running one if you have any kind of performance mod to keep the flow consistent.

I think my my retrurn is siphoning fuel out of my pump leaving my ip without any fuel in it so when I'm cranking it over its having to refill itself with fuel. I'm getting bubbles in or out once its running.

So strange after sitting at work all day in 40-50 degree temps it started right up with no hesitation so weird. Gonna go outside here in a bit and see what happens this morning.

Now my car is starting like crap. had to crank it over for 30 seconds today. individually wired all my glow plugs with 10 guage wire to a fuse block but I haven't hooked up a solenoid yet. Could I have friend something running my red wire to the fuse block to power the glowplugs? to much current? I'...

auto cables are junk do the exact opposite of what they are intended to do which is prevent the clutch from prematurely wearing but in practice actual prevent the clutch from being fully engaged and disengaged promoting pre mature wear. If your someone who maintains your car (if you own a vw you are...

take out your starter replace the bushing in the trans. take apart your starter and grease the shaft and gears after cleaning out well. Bigger cable from starter to batterry short as possible. You may want to get new heatshields and pull all 4 injectors verify all glowplugs are getting red. and whil...

I think the factory drivers side had the one piece deal. on manual racks correct?

you need to check all timing marks to make sure they line up. Your belt could be off. also try loosening injector line and trying to further retard timing they may be restricting movement

Here's my solution a gates 10x675 for alt and a gates 13x955 I think it is. I replaced stock idler with a timing belt tensioner on same adjustable system as the old idler. I used a few jam nuts on the adjusting bolt to hold it in a fixed postion whilst still being able to adjust the idler tension. n...

Before i set this motor in the car what kind of maintenance should i do aside from a t belt etc.. This is my first tdi motor.

They are the same only difference is the teeth on the gears inside and the punch they use to stamp the code into the case. Jettaman did you put the .91 fourth into yours? I was contemplating doing that also. I put in a .71 into my can haven't been able to drive it yet though.

1. set your timing slightly advanced it makes cold starting much easier I had mine set last winter all I had to do was hit the glowplugs 1 time and it spun over in less than 1 crank down to single digits. no heater at all 2. I bet if you ran it off a timer an hour before you could get away with it j...

So I'm looking at a qauntum syncro wagon. its far away from home and id like to drive it and its in great shape cosmetically and the price is right. The engine is what has some issues its a 5cylinder gasser that had the headgasket. replaced by the person previous to who is selling it. The guy had th...

i could possible be off a tooth on timing thats why its able to advance so much without clacking.
