I will try to answer each of you plus keep the OP up to date for the latest version of the list.
Strelnik: I will add in the liners but I may get away with reusing current ones...just honing?? This engine is ready to rebuild. Unknown miles over 300k miles, 140 psi compression on 1 and 3 and 170 psi on 2 and 4, 1 qt of oil per 300 miles. Glow plugs and fuel are all fine. Starter is fine. Injection pump is fine. This is a classic case of rebuild and get it ready for the next 300 k miles. Trust me if it could be started I would have done it.
t walgamuth: Thanks for input. See above for compr readings and glow plug health. I would like to think you will be wrong on parts total but this exercise will get us all on the same page. Give me your raw list and I will enter the data in the OP plus keep a running total. Trust me if I cannot save I will be more than happy to offload the job but $5000 plus is very high to put into a $2000 car. Now I know I am not doing this to sell the car. I am doing it for me so the value can be recalibrated in those circumstances.
