Pretty much all of the VW/AUDI turbo engines (gas and diesel) have the piston oiler nozzles.

The 2.3 TD that Ford put in their 85-87 Ranger also had them.

Matt, VW did cooler sprays on the turbo 1`600s but not on the NA 1600s (Both Diesels). They use a different block, which has led to grief when people triedto field add the turbo to the NAs.

However if you have a surplus volume yes I wouldn't have a problem drilling a plug to oil a distributor gear. It just like I picked up ac couple continental O-470 aircraft engines for my next airboat. Big oil pump, these things can run with .008 main clearance so I drilled the case for piston squirters to reduce potential for detonation. New bearings went in and Newer cases have them I found out. Second engine I bored the case for 520 jugs and isn't together yet but prioritys change. I don't see IMO a burning issue if you don't drill it, I don't see a problem at all if you do drill the plug.

Hey Guys,

Lots of heavy duty diesels have piston coolers, and so do all of the MB turbo-diesel passcar engines. There is a rule in engine design....
If you need cooling or lube oil there, put it there.
Don't count on it happening by chance, because when you really need it, it won't be there.

If you look around, you will find a few passcar motors that have a strange little groove in the upper rod shell that is matched in the rod forging. This is to put lube oil both on the thrust face of the cylinder wall and under the piston crown for cooling.
