I'll have to check the jug. It was recommended by the BITOG site, and they're quite good on oil.

In my Caddy, all gauge lights are wired together, but I changed all the bulbs to LEDs. Very little power draw.

I have a 1981 Rabbit pickup and I installed a tuned 1.9 turbodiesel from a 1995 Passat. I couldn't be happier.

Zero-pressure cooling system

Has anyone here ever used Evans coolant in a VW diesel. Apparently it allows you to run the cooling system at zero pressure.

Turbo, downpipe & Intercooler

I have a good K-14 turbo (internal wastegate) a 1.6 TD cast downpipe, and a Saab Blackstone intercooler. The turbo has no play in the bearings, but it has sat on a shelf for a year and a half. The IC will handle 20-25 psi and is Bar/plate design, so it's very efficient and small enough for a neat in...
