1.6 TD engine, was recovered from "Goldie" when she went to her final
rusting place in 2010. (550,000km)
Filthy, but runs like a top. I'll be 82 in July, and am still running an
89 1.6TD, and my old faithful 94 AAZ 1.9 road tripper.
Time to downsize. U-pick up in vicinity of Ottawa, Canada (western suburb).
History, I found it in a dissolving rabbit nearby, and when cleaning it
up for the Goldie transplant, discovered a sticker on the block that
said "Re-manufactured by VW Canada" I had a VW tech friend replace all
the seals and the clutch plate, and TB, and ran it in Goldie for more
than 100,000km. (pushing 100,000 miles). Never missed a beat, and always
seemed to be more eager than the original. Faithful oil changes, never
burned oil, always passed emissions tests (no smoke), ran on 50% veggie
in summer.
Would part with some other stuff too, spare injection pumps, A2 & A3, 1
each, some spare axles, A2 & a3, A3 Tranny, other junk.
Must clean out the shop.
