You can't run 100% propane in your diesel engine, but a mix of propane and
diesel is possible and often done to increase output.
I've done propane fumigation on the Jetta TD with good results.

You can convert your WBX or inline four to propane.
See mine here:

The 2.0 liter 16v engine in my old passat wagon would also be a good propane
engine because of it's 10.8:1 compression ratio.
The MV WBX is less than ideal because of it's low CR.

I've always wanted to build a turbocharged propane engine.  The high octane
of propane (115 plus) should overcome detonation problems.
Also, propane fuel systems are able to deliver through a wide range,
eliminating the need for supplemental fueling.
