Well, I guess we have to shut this diesel section down due to our IQ's being so low, its funny we can even type! Mr. spencevans over on mightyD50 has this to say: (quote)

[You will want to remove the whole front harness for the conversion, The diesels have very little in common with the 2.6L when it comes to the frontend. You'll want it for the fuel heater, injection pump, glowplug system, tach, fuel filter and much much more. This a straight forward swap but you cannot cut corners like people on here have be telling you. If your having a hard time getting the engine out of the bay, then maybe this swap is not for you. Also don't list ot those idiots on 4x4wire, if you hang around them enough you'll quickly realize how low there diesel IQ is, and you mess the whole thing up.

So thats it boys! Get rid of your diesels, God spence has spoken! We're just not smart enough to run them!
