I think you should also consider to replace the whole engine. There are several shops here in Guatemala that sells engines from Japanese cars. It is not too difficult to find an engine with low mileage. Take a look to the yellow pages, in the "Motores Usados" section, and call a few of those shops. The repair of a diesel engine is not cheap and it will be very difficult for you to find someone with the right tools, with experience and that will not charge more than the value of the car for the repair.
Please let us know the progress of your repair....
