I've the choice of GTD or AAZ injectors - both sets need a service but which should I choose?
The AAZ ones may be 1Y ones from a NA 1.9 engine....
-
1y injectors are the same length as 1.6 injectors,aaz's are taller.
Are you going to do the new nozzles yourself then i would go by the gtd's.
-
AAZ injectors will run a bit quieter but are much more expensive to get serviced. Remember you need the hard lines that go with the injectors...
-
Reg, there are some nozzles that presquirt, merely due to the tapered, or 'corded' nozzle tip.
Not sure of their numbers:
Inspect some with an eyepiece from a microscope.
Note they only presquirt at low rpm...
The one on the left is slightly tapered

They were removed from a 1Y block and they are longer - not sure of your location, but could your info be US specific? ???
Get the injectors that match your injection pump plunger
Aha....TDI injectors required then? I have a TDI head and plunger.
Remember you need the hard lines that go with the injectors...
I have the lines, I was digging out a set of lines for my engine build and realised I had two types - it was then that I twigged I must have the two different injectors as well !
Mark - thanks for the info.

Canada got the 1.9 in both Eco and true TD versions 93-97.

yeah we always get the ***ty end of the stick when it comes to foreign cars... it'd be nice if they would have sold cosworth escorts here, or many many other cars for that matter.
