[Vwdiesel] the 1.9 TD

[82 Diesel Westy]

Wow, that is scarce for sure, it seems to be getting
that way, trying to find early AAZ stuff.  I had lots
of time invested trying to find intake, turbo and
exhaust manifolds for AAZ long block I have.  I still
have to make 1 good turbo out of 2 I ended up buying,
and one was supposed to be re-built, but the waste
gate is Very stiff????

Anyway, good idea to keep the second head as a spare. 
There was no piston damage, just bend valves?
Of course, you need to replace the valve guides on
those 2 as well, most likely have to pay for that to
be done unless you have a drill press.

let us know when you get the AAZ back on the road and
how it turns out, good luck.
