John,


I went to a Vancouver VW dealership for the VW Homecoming week (free 57
item inspection designed to get you in the door.  Free hors d'ouevres).  I
picked up the brochure for the EV and the Transporter.  It would appear
that in Canada, the stock motor in the '97 Transporter is a 2.5 litre 5
cylinder Turbo Diesel.  Something tells me that Andy isn't in Canada.


John, if you bought one of these transporters we could call you Turbo
Diesel John.
