Scrap project 1, on to project 2... (Doing a WVO 2003 VW Jetta TDI Wagon)

Hi Folks,

So, after much fuss over what to do to my econobox gasoline 09 VW Golf to get better MPG, I have already changed plans and dragged another econobox home last night...

Now I'm going to start with an 03 VW Jetta TDI Wagon, and switch it over to a "WVO" veggie diesel system.

The car is well used, but the PO was somewhat good at keeping the maintenance up, so it doesn't need much...not yet at least, but I'll have to do the timing belt and a few other odds and ends before I get into burning canola oil.

I'll be back as I progress along and have actual 'news' to report.
