Ben T is correct about the ratios. If you have a 4.86 I would not do it. An inline 4 gas or TDI is what I would recommend. The AAZ I have came from Florida and...
9 o'clock is the short answer. I just looked at a 91 2WD waterboxer, and a 91 euroepan factory TD sycnro . on the 2WD ..the top of the lever is nearly level,...
Hi Scott I have a 1.6 td in an 86 vanagon Karmann Gipsy camper. It amazingly gets over 20 miles per gallon but it is very slow. It has a 5 speed and will run...
Hey Scott, Is this what you mean? The red housing shows my 1.6td housing lever and bearing, and the dirty housing shows a early diesel Vanagon housing. They...
Does the 1.6 TD have much (safe) performance potential? I mean could you produce 90 HP out of it without too much stress on the engine? I was thinking of...
I have driven my 1.6TD (in 1982 westy) and it definitely likes the revs. I liken it to a 125CC motocross bike. Keep it singing on the pipe and it will reward...
From the vwdiesel.net folks these engines can be built to perform and out perform some tdi's. Lots of info on that sight, A vanagon is a vanagon and a jetta a...
hi all, i emailed this group previously looking for a single mass 228mm 1Z/AHU flywheel. after a couple of helpful offers from people on this group nothing has...
hi.. I suppose one could get 90 hp out of a 1.6 TD if they really want to. I consider the poor little engines to be rather stressed pushing a vanagon just...
Yes that will work with your hybrid clutch set up and is the one that we use for our TDI Vanagon conversions. The nice thing about using that flywheel is you...
What is the best fuel setting for a 1z with no mods. I here its best between 3.0 mg/stroke to 5.0 mg/stroke. Is 5.0 richer or leaner than 3.0? Right now mine...
It's counterintuitive, but the large values correspond to less fueling...so changing the value via VCDS should help with your smoke. If you need to adjust...
2 vehicle for $8500 '82 Westy, nicest around many upgrades + '96 Passat 1Z motor running 170k Westy is a factory diesel, so no smog or CARB inpection needed...
3.0 is the best power you can get, it is higher quantity injected than 5. IQ settings are settings are 3-9. Do not change anything unless you got bigger...
All I was given a bosch test rpt for an 11mm IP pump here http://members.shaw.ca/trclark/vwvan/IPPumpe11mm.JPG translation is testSlap-> Slack Test Toerental...
yes--as i said in my earlier reply, higher values = lower fueling. should help with the smoke, but in my experience, unlikely to do much to help EGTs (either...
Are these settings what the expected mg/stroke that the injectors are supposed to output at some defined pressure on a test bench/benchmarked tester? That...
See this post #5 in the following thread for a technical description of what IQ values mean: http://forums.tdiclub.com/showthread.php?p=3655077 But in general,...
Has anyone thought about this as a smart odbii gauge replacement... Android Torque can display all sorts of gauge's ...I have used on my tablet quite happily...
I have a 1.9l tdi with a Sachs dual mass flywheel with less than 20,000 miles on it. The engine is not yet installed in my van. My understanding is that the...
The DMF's have been known to come apart. TDI club members usually take them off at the first opportunity. Mine is still on and at 194k the clutch is still...
If the 228mm AHU flywheel is the standard factory AHU flywheel, then I have two sitting here in my garage. They are a little rusty, but totally serviceable....
Hello Paul and others, I'm having the same problem as Paul below, the ECU is producing slight voltage, keeping relay 109 on after key off. Was wondering if...
The ECU I changed to (BK) came up with a lot of fault codes that weren't true compared to the original one (GQ) so I decided to change it back and deal with...
