1.9 and 1.6 compatable parts
« on: March 07, 2005, 02:19:14 pm »
Hi,
I am going to be putting a diesel in my baywindow.  Hopefully a 1.9.
I was wondering if some of the auxilary parts (injectioin pump, oil pump, radiator, gauges, etc.)  that I will be needing are interchangable between the 1.9 and 1.6 (turbo and non-turbo).  Or if my engine is 1.9 does it all need to be 1.9
thanks,
Kyle

I'm pretty sure that nearly all the parts (including the head) are interchangable.  The IP will work fine with the 1.9 -- you can adjust the fuel up if you like.
