Awesome wealth of information here! Working to get my 91 jetta tdi swap on the road and hoping to learn a little from the forum.
Specifications:
AUH 1.9l TDI full CE2 swap into a CE2 MKII chassis
Observation:
Place key into run position, (not starting vehicle) after a 2sec delay, the IP will begin to pulse / click / tap loudly in a continuous cycle at roughly 1k clicks per min. Sounds like an electric solenoid valve rapidly cycling within the pump. This is no longer heard when the engine is running (could be still occurring, i just cant hear it due to engine noise) Noise will discontinue if key is turned off, or injection pump is electrically disconnected.
Questions:
Is this a normal occurrence?
If this is not normal, what should i look into to solve this issue? Could it be an issue with my swap wiring?
If this is normal, should i be concerned about damaging the pump if the car sits for an extended period in the run position without being started?
Car runs flawlessly otherwise.
Thanks in advance!
