[Vwdiesel] Looking for Canadian 1.9 PartsDavid Cook vwdieselbunny at yahoo.comTue Nov 7 20:58:25 EST 2006
Hey all, I am looking for the "vibration damper" (crank serp belt pulley) and the shim that protects it from the timing belt of a Canadian 1.9 diesel engine. AAZ block. I was at the mechanic's today picking up the fuel filter (see previous post...) and he showed me the crank pulley off a customer's car. Aparantly, there was supposed to be a shim that keeps the timing belt away from the pulley. On this car, the pulley was reinstalled by a previous mechanic without the shim, and now there has been a tremendous amount of wear on the pulley. (What was a flat surface now has an interesting surface that looks like a mirror image of the crank sprocket.) Part numbers provided to me by the mechanic, according to ETKA: "vibration damper" 029 105 243 A Shim 028 105 243 T Note: The final letter was distorted by the copier, but I am also sure it is a "T". Also note, ETKA calls this shim "v-belt pulley for power steering" so I don't even know if this is an accurate part number or if the error is just in it's name. The mechanic conferred with another and both were surprised that there was ever supposed to be a shim there, but there sure is supposed to be one. Supposedly, this setup is used on 1993-1996 1.9L Diesel engines sold in Canada. If any of you up North have this sitting around or know of a source of good used units, I would be very happy to know about it.
