It is my understanding that the Diesel Vanagon
that was available for one year only here in the
States (1982) did not use a Waterboxer 091-1
based 094 5 speed but used something completely
different based upon the '80-'83 aircooled 091s.
The 091-1s did not show up here until the introduction
of the watercooled Vanagon which was available
starting with the 1984 models here.  My Bentley
also shows the 094 but it is a 091-1 based gearbox
which, while looking somewhat similar, is a completely
different animal.  Perhaps VW stuck something in the
1982 Vans that was only really available overseas for
this very limited production run for the States?  Its well
known that we here in the States got the bland stuff
while those in other countries tended to get the 'good'
stuff.    I must admit my memory is a bit vague when
it comes to the Diesel only 5-speed as I have not seen
one in years.
