• Hi,
  
  i have an '82 vanagon with a 97 AAZ and a 93 td golf. the golf pump is kaput and needs to be resealed.
  
  can i put an injector pump from 97 on a 93 without major work?
  
  I know that in 97 they did something with the sproket.
  
  next question...
  
  can i put a JX 1.6 pump (from a euro vanagon td) on the 97 aaz without major work?
  
  i know major work is pretty subjective but you know what i mean
  
  ...what is the opinion if this is good for performance in the 1.9td vanagon in conjunction with gtd injectors or not.
  
  thanks!

• ...c'mon someone help me out here, please.
  
  are the 93 and 97 aaz  injection pumps interchangable?
  
  thanks

• Yes you can, but the sprockets for each type of pump need to stay with the original pump.

• You will have to change the mounting bracket that came with each pump in order to swap from one style to the next (where the pump mounts is a different size hole in each bracket). otherwise shouldn't matter.
  The Vanagon pump good question, count the teeth on the pulleys, different timing belts...and throttle cable set up is different.
