Hi

I have an 80 1.9 TDI, 1994 and need to know how to line up the timing belt and also can anyone tell me if it's an interference engine? Ta xxx

Yes it hits, hard... The bottom end is aligned by a zero mark on the flywheel to a line in the gearbox but the cam is aligned with a plate and the pump with a pin. It can be bodged but I cannot advise you to do that. After running up to temperature, the pump has to be finely adjusted for what is known as the Commencement Of Injection (COI) and this is done using a diagnostic computer system.
