GRRR! AARG!!!!
« on: January 30, 2010, 08:56:53 am »
Finally going at my AAZ this weekend. Pulled piston#1, cleaned up everything. Very little wear, a very small bit of a ring land on one side only. Went to get the rings, I've only got enough for one cylinder!! Apparently when you order rings through Altrom, you order only one cylinder at a time.......... They're Goetze rings, but it's annoying as h*ll!

Stuck until next week!

It only gets better. Went to put the one piston that I could back in the block, they sent the wrong rod bearings!   Spent some time chasing numbers and figured out they sent bearings for a 1900cc DH engine from an early 80's Vanagon........

Someone needs a slap!
