Just pulled the motor from my car to put it into my 1995 dodge caravan.

  • I would keep that body, mk2's in that condition are hard to find..

  • ha ha in the beginning of the video "Start Me Up" is on the radio lol

  • @Luna7ick no, its just high compression or a little pre fire. all diesel motors sound like that

  • I am a big fan of Davidsfarm because of all these vids. They're awesome!

  • Dave, please tell me you don't use Fram filters, and that it came with the car...=)

  • @spelunkerd They also use the backpressure provided by closed injectors/regulators to prevent the armature from rattling around and damaging bushings. If you run a pump dry the A/F ratio in the pump can be ignited by sparking inside the armature.

  • Dave, would you happen to know where I might be able to find one of those engines for really cheap. It doesn't even have to work. All I'm looking for are the main bearing caps since mine were totally screwed

  • @1717BY I have the (factory) turbo version of this exact engine sitting in my shed right now. It's the same block for both. Also, in case you were wondering, these were before VW's TDI line, which started in late 1995

  • "Start Me Up" in the background! NICE!!!

  • Dave, did you really put a turbo on this engine? Does the engine withstand the higher pressures and forces without any modifications?
