Title: WTB - feeler - any AAZ engines local?
Post by: Rabbit on Roids on January 04, 2010, 10:40:37 am
looking to see whats out there. AAZ's are extremely rare in the pacific north west. ive seen like one or 2 for sale, thats it tho. so, what do you guys have? basically looking for a long block. im going to be using non-stock manifolds and turbo, along with a 1.6 fuel pump and injectors.

im trying to find a long block, because i dont want to pay for parts im never going to use. doesnt really matter tho, lets just see what you guys have to offer?

thats just a BARE BLOCK... not a short block, a short block has a rotating assembly.

i have zero AAZ parts or engines. thats why im looking for a semi complete long block locally. a long block is a short block with a head. i basically need a whole engine with nothing on it. and im not looking for something that i have to ship a million miles unless its super cheap or free...

the thing is, i want it close to me. so i can look stuff over before i buy it. there are too many problems on vw diesels when owned by idiots who dont know what maintenance is. i can think of timing belt failure, crank nose wobble, and some other things that come to mind when i think of common problems of AAZ engines.

but i bet they come with new price tags dont they? see, if i could spend around 3-500 bucks, i would do it. but i bet your new engines are right about 2 grand arent they? if i were to spend that much, i would try and find a TDI motor.

He might get lucky. I bought a complete '93 golf about a year ago for 500 bucks, body a little tough, and I was told the trans was out of it (and it is). Tested a little under 400 pounds, so it's apart for rings right now. Already has the late pulley on the crank, needs a pump seal, everything else looks good.

he wanted 300 for it, but it had no compressor wheel. and slightly low compression (probably from eating the compressor) but it did have a fresh set of 155 bar injectors (under 10k miles) and it had an injection pump, but the input shaft bushing was toast. either way, i dont think it was a bad deal, even just for all the specific parts.

hey kev, you can just take over this thread, im getting too many projects going at this time. i cant take on an AAZ too.

just think celica, GTI, Jetta, 4runner, and rabbit. thats too many all at once. and the funny thing is, even the non vw cars have plenty of VW parts. the Celica is getting CIS injection so i can eliminate the stock restrictive mass air sensor (same size as digi cars).
