Hi everybody, been lurking for a year, now it's time for my first post!
Quick intro, I'm in the UK, and am currently fixing up what you guys stateside call a Vanagon (it's a syncro too for those of you who like a bit of 4x4 action).
I blew up the 1.6TD lump the van came with, and am about to install an AHU TDi engine, but:
the engine came to me with all the lines and hoses cut, they just cut them all to get the engine out of the donor car quickly
I see red, blue and black hoses all over, Also, i am near the start of a TDi learning curve...
So, bearing in mind I am fitting a mechanical injector pump (2nd thread coming soon! ), i would like to know what I should connect the wastegate vacuum (?) line to, and also the line coming off the inlet side of the turbo (presumably this represents boost pressure). Is the wastegate controlled internally, or does the boost need to affect/control the wastegate by any chance?
Any help is much appreciated,
Cheers, Monkey Phil
