Re: Injector leak off pipe

Yeah my original engine is a 2l Aircooled so imagine my tank will only have one outlet? I bought an SB engine from a Passat that I've just rebuild, came with the early style screw on diesel filter which only has two connections on, for the tank and fuel pump. So I imagine the leak off pipes should g...

Re: Injector leak off pipe

Mine goes to a hard black plastic fuel line back to the tank through the bulkhead on the nearside straight behind the cylinder head. I presume that they should all be the same. Fantastic, thank you for that Might have to invest in a diesel tank then. Mine is an Aircooled petrol tank and probably do...

Passat b3 1v 1.6 td engine? Wrong engine?

I've just picked up a passat b3 1.6td I thought it was an sb engine but it's actually a 1v engine? I can't find a great deal of information. Apparently it has 59hp?? Bit annoyed, what are the different between the sb and 1v can it be tuned? It has a 1.9td turbo. Is the fuel pump tuneable? Kinda anno...

CU Aircooled crown and pinion in diesel gearbox

Hello guys, haven't posted for a while, doing a td conversion on my t25. I've sourced a 4 speed gearbox and Bellhousing from a 1.6d, it's quite a revvy box. I've found an Aircooled cu gearbox for cheap as spares or repairs. As it doesn't stay in gear, I'm thinking off stripping it, removing the crow...

Re: More questions, aircooledness, gearbox ratios, t25 slowness

Sigh.. I see they fetch a premium £300 plus Really beginning to hate t25's That's because it's one of the strongest transmissions, handles lots of BHP with the tallest ratios, all the tuning boys want them. It's not the vans fault the previous owner/s was a knob. It's not just that, it's that all t...
