question

what does the 'I' stand for in 'TDI'?

Injun

Hurrah, something I can answer definitively!

TDI = Turbocharged Direct Injection...

Cheers,

I fought it was "Turbo Diesel Injection"?

I allus thought it was Turbo deesil intercooler, or have I missed something has there been a secret meeting of the famous five?

From what I remember, if its a capital 'I', it stands for 'Intercooler', if its a lower case 'i', it stands for injection. In reality, the manufacturers probaly just call any turbo diesel TDI/TDi etc., not really caring what the I stands for

Turbo Direct Injection is what they want you to say when stamped on the back of a LR...

Seasons Greetings-------- to you blobby slobby see the lobotomy isnt starting to kick in too badly----- yet. I just love your compliments about me.Pity Adz stole your thunder by answering correctly. That Indian you wanted a mag for What model and year?. The nutters on my planet tell me it must be an early one as all later ones were battery powered. In the bogs when a mag wouldnt spark they would take it off and put it in the bottom of a warm oven leave it for a while to dry off all that scotch mist. If that didnt work and its been sitting for a long time try recharging magnets. Here on planet Zannusi if that dosnt work its serious Probably a breakdown in the shellaced insulation in the windings. If you need further assistance just ask in your usual nice way. Oh by the way dont put it in the microwave magnetos dont like them . Hair dryer would probably be the best. MOISTURE IS NOT KIND TO ELDERLY MACHINERY, Humans to come to think of it.-----BB
