Find an 1.9 TD AAZ from a Mk3 (1993 (?) - 1999 ) The diesel heads call it a "one wire" diesel. This wire connects to "stop solenoid" that allows fuel to flow, or not. IF the GTi swap is using all DV parts, a diesel should bolt right up. You *may* need to adapt coolant hoses and a few wires. If you're lucky, the existing exhaust can be used w/o too much, if any, alterations. There's a diesel Vanagon list on yahoo. Neil.
