oh bugger!

Post by Iceworx »

Right, i need a sure way of identifying my engine.

The log book says 1.7d which the the KY, and when i last drove it it was hugly under powered.

Got underneath it yesterday to find 1.6d on the engine block meaning its a CS engine..

Can someone point me in the right direction.

thanks :)

Bare in mind that if you go "AAZ etc" your gearbox is most likely going to be very under geared... ie it will accelerate really well and scream its nuts off at 70... (bet you never though 70 would be poss :lol: )... need to find out what code your box is too then.. :wink:
