aaz valves and springs
Hello, I've got a AAZ out of a 96 golf (Canada) . Where's the best place to get new valves for it? Also is it true that the AAZ's only had the outer valve spring, no inners on mine. Did some one take them out? If they did, can i replace them with some inners from a 1.6 Na mechanical head? Thanks in advance. Paolo

Re: aaz valves and springs
As posted elsewhere...
Reading up; AAZ had inner and outer springs, up to 1996/7ish, then had only one spring, whilst the 1Z and AHU began/carried on the dual spring setup. Code was 028 109 623 A, outer, and 028 109 633A inner, later the single spring was 028 109 623B
Interestingly it seems the AAZ continued to be issued with the dual spring 'carrier'
Finally ABA,and AAC came along with the 028 109 623 'C' outer, no inner

Interesting, seems I should stick with the one spring setup. It does have the upper "carrier", which is the same 2 spring design as the 1.6. It has no lower "carrier" however, the spring rests direcly on the cylinder head! Doesn't seem to be any wear on the softer aluminum after 200,000 miles, guess they knew what they were doing. Paolo. P.S, still looking for valves to buy. Thanks, Paolo
