How many volts should I see at the IP solenoid? I see constant 13 volts. Shouldn't it start out 12-13v and continually drop.
Cold- starts immediately. Hot- log cranks. Looking at VagCom, 189 min before starting. Sometimes will hit 220? What does min stand for? On a hill I can have someone push the truck 1 foot and the engine will start immediately. It must be the starter. I've had the starter checked numerous times and verified a good start. Pump was leaking awhile back I replaced the fuel sensor. Getting error again. Verified no short in wire
16566 - Fuel Temp. Sensor A (G81)
P0182 - 35-10 - Short to GND - Intermittent

I think its time you throw in a spare ECU. You can also hotwire the IP solenoid to rule out ecu issues. It will actuate with as little as 9 volts. I would do that to see if the starter issues goes away.

I forgot to mention after purchasing a new wiring harness, the current ECM was not programmed for the glow plugs and I kept getting errors. I purchased an ECM from Fastforward with the correct tune. My glow plugs are working and no glow plug errors. So I know it's not the ECM. After hours of testing and not making headway I thought it must be the ECM but it wasn't. Cold starts immediately and when hot 7-8 cranks before starting. Pull off with another truck and fires up immediately. Once it cranks, lots of power. There has to be a reason. I wish I had a known good spare IP to test.
My turbo was on and off and I decided to clean before attempting to find the issue. After starting, I sprayed some degreaser and I noticed bubbles around the turbo. It this repairable?

I am going to purchase a new turbo. Not going to take a chance! With my current stock turbo, it fits 1/8 inch from the starter. From my research, I need a bhw manifold. What turbo would I need that closely matches the Garret GT1749v? I don't need more power than what I have.
I tried looking for a bhw manifold when building my bus and they are hens teeth. It does rotate the turbo in a higher position but not sure how far out it sticks.

I have a starter blanket on it now. On the TDI forum, PickleRick made suggestions that I should bore the other hole. I think I am going to take it to the machinist and he complete the bore.
On my swap, I use the Hasenwerk Logic Switcher. I think it is shorting out the brake light. Keep blowing fuses. Is there a workaround for this? I had this issue before and once I purchased the new logic switcher it resolved the issue. It takes like 3 weeks got get it from Canada.
I ordered an oil pressure switch and VDO adapter. I installed the VDO adapter and added the oil pressure sensor. I wired it and all worked perfectly. However, I had a small leak and I removed the VDO adapter and installed just the oil pressure sensor. I started the truck and no leaks; however, the oil pressure gauge would go all the way pass 100. It doesn't matter if I start the truck.
I can turn the switch on and it goes to 100or Why???
IDoes your oil pressure sensor resistance range match your oil pressure gauge? There are several different standards for gauge resistance ranges. Some ranges from a quick Google search
0-180 Ohms
10-180 Ohms
0-30 Ohms
0-90 Ohms
73- 10 Ohms
40-145 Ohms
240-33 Ohms
168-15 Ohms
NOTES:
1. VDO makes senders for several resistance ranges
2. Notice that some senders increase the resistance and other senders decrease the resistance as the fuel level changes.
3. The other possibility is a short circuit in the wire to the sender.
Bought some bad fuel from Walmart two months ago. Verrrry slow pumping... Had to dump my tank and change my filter. Last week started having issues losing prime. Prior still had power but noticed like a loping sound. Verified all lines where not leaking......Contact DFIS in Oregon and Triplet in Waco Texas. Any recommendation before I send it off.
