engine conversion (wiring help)
« on: 22 January 2006, 12:53 »
am currently in the process of swapping a 1.3 87 reg and puuting in a 1.6 engine in out of a 88 reg, was just wondering if the wiring is going to be any different, also the 1.3 was automatic choke and the 1.6 has a manual weber, will this be any different, many thanks, andy

The wiring will mostly plug in, theres even less to worry about if the webber is a manual!

should be strait foward, let us know how it goes because im doin the same in the summer.. theres a dash blank for the choke on ur 1.3, to the lower left of the steering wheel, the mount easily fixes to it and the cable easily runs through.
