Time for a new thread - I can't tell you how exited I am to get started!
A while back I ordered a 200 tdi "kit" & wasn't prepared for how incomplete it was. This was probably my fault, not knowing what to expect or what to ask for. Having never changed out an engine before, I needed a set up that was in good working order & as complete as possible.
Uncle Douglas had one, replaced the timing belt & sent me a crate that made a lot more sense to me, uncut & new hoses, filters, belts, bolted together, with muffler pipe, shroud, fan blade - all the stuff my first order didn't have! AND crated so the engine didn't shift against the trans & radiator! Props to UD for doing the extras.
I'm leaving town for four days. When I get back it's time to get busy!
