Hey,
I crashed my '97 TD and bought a '98 (1.9L L4 FI) TDI with a few problems.
1. The temperature gauge won't move past the 1/4 mark. -Thermostat? I can't find a write-up for it. Is it difficult?
2. It wouldn't start this morning (-10C (~14F)). Can I take the block heater from my '97 and install it on the '98?
3. I don't know if this is related, but the check engine light is on. Could it be an indicator for a glow plug being out?
4. There's a hole in a small hose (I have NO idea what it is called or where it goes/comes from - centre-right of engine on the top going into a wide rubber tube (sorry)) and I get intermittent boost and I can hear blast of air while I'm driving. It also puffs black smoke if I hit the gas pedal.
There should be more problems to ask about, it's our first day together.
Thanks.
