off topic, 1993 Volkswagen Golf III diesel

Hello Everyone
I am trying to help a mechanic in Winlaw, British Columbia, Canada.
I recall several of the members here have VW diesels.
Do any of you know where this fellow find the data online?

Date: 04/22/2004 13:08:11
1993 Volkswagen Golf III
Engine: 1.9 L / 118 CID / 4 cyl / Diesel / Turbo / SOHC
Fuel: (Diesel) Fuel Injection
Trans: 5-speed Standard Transaxle
Mileage: 182,000 km
VIN: 3VWFP01H1P

Symptoms: Incorrect timing
_______________________________________

This car came in as a no start. The crankshaft sprocket was
loose on the crankshaft. After doing the repairs, I am unable
to find the specification for the injection pump setting. The
pump sprocket was not aligned with the setting pin hole at
TDC on disassembly and the timing setting now is at 0.140mm,
which I am sure is incorrect. My copy of MOD (old) does not
have any information on the topic of timing adjustment for
the diesel engine. Can anyone supply this information? Thanks
in advance.

Do you have B4 Passat TDI automatics up there? Send me one if you have one to spare.

Is that not the 1.9L IDI turbo diesel they sold in Canada but not in the US?

If so, use the 1.6TD specs for timing, higher side of the range.

And as I recall there known for that crank pulley failure, be sure it did not ruin the crank.

Enjoy, my father just put one in my old 82 PickUp I gave him.
