1.9TD "AAZ" Conversion

<< < (3/4) > >>

Baxter:
I'm interested in the taller 4th gear, do you have any more details?
The AAZ revs reasonably high for a Diesel hence why I chose it, as far as I know it is the highest revving Diesel engine that VW produced.
It is also not that hard to make it rev more, simple governor modifications release more power and let the engine rev.
I hate Petrol engines, they smell too much.
I know about the cast block, I keep having to chop bits off to get it in the engine bay properly!
:)
I have used a 80°c thermostat as the AAZ does run warmer than a 1.6TD, plus I have used the original radiator (rebuilt) so I thought that would be a useful addition along with the oil cooler.
I also intend to fit a coolant temperature gauge as well as boost and EGT.

i hate diesel engines, they sound weird and their reek is an anathema to since i stood many times behind my tank to warm me up in winter
but hey, many poeple are frozen, none of them perished of smell :)

i do tranny conversions, it's not too hard, but you need proper equipment (you sure have)
the pinions i have in stock (+11%)
for warranty reasons i modify only new gear boxes, so bearings and sealings are new and easy to disassemble

i advice you to take the bombardier radiator, it holds almost 2l more liquid
also the additional (diesel) oilcooler with fan is a good add-on (but hard to get, almost no diesels are stripped for pieces)

This sounds a bit... strange. :D

But I'm sure your mean transmissions, not....

:D


Oh and (to keep this on topic) - I agree on the diesel issue. Diesel stink. ;)
There are some good petrol engines you could use in the Iltis. I prefer the PF engine.

I get the feeling that there's quite a lot of VW diesel expertise on the other side of the channel. From T3's, Synchro's etc. and now also Iltis.
Wouldn't it be great to have a complete conversion story of the AAZ Iltis? Simon, many members of the community would be grateful!
It was always my opinion that a vehicle like the Iltis should be equipped with a diesel engine (all my other cars are diesel burners, with the exception of one rotary).

One question:
Am I right assuming that the governor is the rev limiter? I'm not sure.
