What he ^^^ says!
Im sorry to ask but is this all for real?
I would love to help you both but like other have said, I think you are out of your depth by miles..

Hi my girllfriend been asking questions.thanks for your help i have put all the 1.6 D. engine parts on the polo 1.9 D fits ok in T25 the only thing dif is water pump .i have all so left polo pullys on added new belts .my old v belts would not fit . my diesel 1.6 pump will fit with some adjustments but was told to leave the 1.9 pump on . the is ok but when i turn it over the fuel dos not move.

have you primed the pump/bled the diesel through?

tried undoin pipe one at a time while turming engine,still diesel wont go trough pump.will try and get 1.9 diesel pump at weekend thanks for help,

When you changed belts, I assume you changed the timing belt???
Did you check cam and fuel pump timing?

Timing the fuel pump on a diesel engine is like timing the distributor on a petrol engine.

Not being condescending. Just starting with basics.

Did you use the 1.6 sump and oil pump in place of 1.9 sump and oil pump?

Did you prime the pump as lloydy asked?

Where about in country are you?

By the sounds of it the pump is full of air! Also by the sound of it you dont really know what your doing, perhaps get some one who does!

but was told to leave the 1.9 pump on

thought you had it from your previous post? Good luck!

so is your problem with the fuel..water or oil pump ?

is there no-one in dudley that can help you with this ??

Really feel for you both and I am sure you are doing your best, if you were closer I would be straight round as I respect people when they have a go, get stuck and shout for help. I have sent you a PM (go on you can find it) with my mobile number. Feel free to give me a call.
Pete.

^^^^^good ol' boy

^^^^^^^^ still owe you a beer, but cant catch ya Dave. Maybe this year !

been too busy this year so far for jollies but when i get chance i might have a trundle your way mate for a night or 2 ...cant pass up a free beer,now can i

Let Dr.Pete have a stab at your problem...
You have done all the donkey work but could not get the INJECTION PUMP to prime ?
SO you thought the best option would be to fit a LIFT PUMP to help the diesel up to the INJECTION PUMP.
You could not get a Diesel Lift Pump so you tried a Petrol Lift Pump.....yes so far ?
Weeeellllll, not so bad.
Remove the big Banjo fitting on top of the pump and fill it with diesel.
And maybe a silly question but is the fuel solenoid opening (can you hear it "click" when you turn
your key on and off. Have you got a black wire connected to the right "thing" ?

thanks will try to do that keep u posted
