2.1 DJ timing
Do I need to unplug all it say's in the Bently manual to set timing on a fule injected t25 2.1 DJ and do I use the original single pully.

Re: 2.1 DJ timing
DJ engine isn't covered in Bentley
you would be better off with https://syncrosport.com/info/manual/VW_Transporter_80-92_2-1_Inj_Ign.pdf

Is the 2.1 DJ engine really not in the Bentley manual, I spent a Hundred quid on that book. I think that's why I'm a bit confused. Thank for the advice I will try to get that book you recommend.

Re: 2.1 DJ timing
The Bentley manual is American so only covers the engines they got in that market
2.0 litre Aircooled with fuel injection, 1.9 WBX with fuel injection, CS 1.6 diesel upto end of 1982 and 2.1 MV Digifant
2.1 DJ is the (more powerful) 'dirty' 2.1 originally designed to run on 4*, the Americans only got the cleaner variant with a CAT and a cleverer ECU, timing procedures are different
The 1.9 Digijet the yanks got is very similar to the DJ but earlier and not exactly the same, so worth cross checking the two sets of instructions, iirc timing isn't the same
also DJ running unleaded is timed at 5' (like the MV) instead of 10', if running LPG it's something different ideally
The stuff on Andy's website is pdf downloadable, and the extra stuff like driveability issues leaflet from VW is worth being familiar with
