Thats a peugeot 205 1.8 diesel pump dude

you can use the JX pump but you will need to use a dial gauge on the pump and then alter the fuel screw, thats a way to pervent changing the engine cover, or you can use the AAZ pump, i have a spare of each if your interested?

would love to come and have a look but your a little too far away!! did you use a 1995 golf and if so did it have a immobiliser, i keep getting different answers and its my first newer engine so im not sure what im actualy looking for! where are you located, i TDI'd mine last year and im in the mid...

I had my dipstick extended (ooer missus!) for my 1Y engine, by Phil Miller on this forum, who fitted the engine. A bit of dipstick was welded on the end (overlapped and shaped with a grinder). Added 3.5 litres, started the engine and ran until the oil pressure light went off - took a reading, and m...

I know from personal experience! Didn't seize just lost vacuum, rapid oil top up cured it.

fair point, you were very lucky not to seize it

If you run with a very low oil level you can lose the vacuum to the servo also! Hows that as the oil pump is ran off the bottom of the vac pump, the vac pump is driven off the aux shaft which is driven off the cambelt, the only way you could lose servo is is the cambelt and or aux shaft snaps, oil ...

I had snapped the brake vacuum spigot and me not being aware that it was linked to the oil pump had made the request for info before realising this, that's what you get for trying to do it all yourself with no real experience I suppose ? :oops: Fair play dude, that could happen to anyone, good on y...

what was it?

Ok couple of quick questions

I take it you have put oil in it? and i also take it you have fitted the T25 oil pump and pick up?

now if both are present, then id take the feed pipe off the oil filter housing and see if you have oil there, if not then check the oil filter housing for blockage

Fair play, very good work there, the exhaust looks factory tbh

Bump - I've now gone ahead and had a 1Y fitted. Thanks to Phil Miller on this forum, i'm now running with 29% more torque. Phil did a fantastic job on this, i'm really chuffed with it! I've written a blog post about it here:- http://campervanthings.com/2013/03/16/t25-diesel-upgrade-to-1Y-engine/&qu...

hmm thinking about it back when i started in the garage we use to stock llb 012, 410 and 472, now for some reason i remember the round based one with a glass bowl for the lamp being a 012 and im sure the 410 was a halg one just with the older type base, i may have the numbers wrong, cant look on the...
