well just created a profile on here figured diesel guys are the best people to ask for diesel advice
if you have time to kill here is my complete build thread
http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=4400090&page=1let me be the first to say this is all new to me, i have learned a lot in the last bit but b4 a few months ago i new next to nothing about mk2's diesel's and turbo's I am a mk3 aba guy
i am in a bit of a stand still
the mk3 Donner car i bought - 95 aaz the turbo on it, k03 turbo, it is no good
so i am stuck wondering if i should get it rebuilt, get the same turbo used in good shape (if i can even find one) or get a different oem turbo or get a different aftermarket one
for right now i just want the car to be simple and efficient turn key every morning good to drive in the winter ect. don't need a crazy amount of power but a little extra never hurt anyone right
was planning on running 2.5" exhaust no cat no muffler was told it should still be fairly quiet as the turbo quiets it down, don't rely want to mess with the injection pump as of right now
a buddy of mine had this turbo kicking around not sure if it would be a good idea to put it on or not
what i ripped off
next question
mk3 diesel fuel tank going to be running it in the mk2, wondering if i should change these check valves
i asked my buddy at the dealer and this is what he had 2 say "... they're check valves so the fuel does run back out the line draining if from the injection pump causing air lock in the injectors.....
so my question is do they fail, or they last 4 ever, i am going to change the rusty connections for some new fuel clamp lines and make it all nice
big thanks to the guys i have already chatted 2 over vortex
cant wait to get this car on the road, it wont be soon enough
