   Martin,


   what is the difference between the Golf/Jetta (diesel or gas?) and the
   Vanagon diesel waterpump?
   Does the vanagon version have a high flow rate?


No, different hub, different pulley and belt arrangement. Belt
slips because of shallow contact angle when in a vanagon application
=> quick overheat and often a blown head gasket and warped head.


As I said there's more on Diesel cooling, pumps and thermostats in the
archives.
