Radio Shack will be happy to seel you a 'radio interference filter kit'
in exchange for mere greenbacks.  When I installed an aftermarket amp in
my Taurus (blasphemy! a non-vw ride!) it whined with the engine.  The
radio shack choke silenced the racket.

(Of course, you COULD retrofit a diesel engine and do away with all that
high tension system that's causing you such grief regardless........)
