I screwed up royally and got a significant amount of water(+/- 2-3 LITERS) in my tank. Of course I tried starting it till my battery almost went dead, I replaced 2 glow plugs (#1 and #4) also tired starting with straight ATF. I believe I siphoned off most or all of the water through the fuel lines. I also drained the filter and I plan on replacing it when this all over. How do get my engine going again? Could I have done any serious damage? TIA Arthur '82 Vanagon Diesel (the Beast) A BioDiesel project Happily puttering along with a 1.9NA UNTIL THIS MORNING |
