We just had a new diesel engine installed in our Clark
fork lift...the mechanic said: dont let it idle for
long periods of time, keep the RPM's down below 1500K.
and I forget for how long we are supposed to do this.


Id like to find a wrecked TDI Jetta myself, i wonder
how much say a 40K mile TDI engine goes for?


PHil Stanhope 84' Westy w/Tiico
