Feel a little silly asking this but oh well. I have just about completed my M-Tdi conversion into my caddy but can't get the darn thing running. I've tried cranking the crap out of it, getting it pull started, and now I have an IV looking gravity feed thing going on and still nothing. Being only familiar with IDI Vw motors, it didn't even occur to me until one of my big truck buddys asked me, Do these things take a primary pump? Looking at ebay, looks like they have an in tank. So if this is the case, this definitely sounds like what my problem might be. How have others remedied this? Is there an aftermarket external diesel pump that I can use?
**I apologize if this is in the wrong forum. Figured since it has to do with an MTDI, it is a little off topic from the normal mechanical questions.
