hi and happy new year to all.

Bought this van on new years eve in the dark, yes i know not the best idea, but in the cold light of day not bad at all.

Bought this as a 1.9 N/a diesel after rubbing down the block under no3 injector the code is cs surely its a 1.6 diesel.




Dont know if you can see these images.

Any help on this matter would be very helpful

Cheers Spike

yepp ...cs is the 1.6 non turbo engine code and the rocker cover also looks very much 1.6

Thanks peasant just trying to re asure my self that it is, the reg docs says different.

Pulls very well for a 1.6 n/a need to change cam belt previous owner has no idea when it was done.

Thanks for your help

Can be done in situ, replace the tensioner too. Have you done a cambelt before?? These are quite easy.

Have not done it before louey but always up for a challenge just want to make sure i buy the right parts from mr baxter.
Not sure about this fuel filter ether any thoughts on it is it the screw in type.

Look on the side of the crankcase under the manifolds - if it is a CS it will be 1.6 moulded in the casting. Certainly looks like a CS.The engine no. can be re-stamped but not so easy to change the crankcase moulding. (if anyone should really wish to for some strange reason)

Thanks oldie check that out in the light of day definitely got cs stamped under the injector.

Thanks for your help Spike

Update took the tinware of and a big 1.6d stamped on the crankcase
Thanks to all who helped steer me in the right direction.

Unscrew old one

fill new one at least half full with diesel,
smear a bit on the rubber seal
screw back on
Undo the screw on top of the filter housing a little bit (its an air bleed screw)
turn over engine a few times - if it starts let it run
tighten screw
repeat if engine runs a bit lumpy or air in the clear bit of fuel pipe that runs to the fuel pump on engine)

Thanks louey just what I needed to know parts arriving from mr baxters emporium tomorrow.
