need help on engine change

[squeak]

i got a 1.2 carbretter engine in my j reg nova and puttin a 1.6 gsi engine init but need help on the wiring if its possible

[lee 16v]

like what, they should be the same colours, but you will need a fuel pump wire its blue and red on the gsi.

you have got the gsi tank and pump

[novacabrio]

where are you

[squeak]

i hav got the gsi nova siyyin at my work its just rotten so thtats y i am doin the change got everything withit. so can i just cut the loom and join it to the gsi loom or not?

[Rob]

instead of cuttin and shutin the loom just swap the full loom.It doesnt take long it should only take half a day if that .

[squeak]

i hav decided i am not gonna do the loom change just gonna put 1.6 carb onit

[Stuart]

nooooooooooo dont fit a single carb to a 1.6 enigne when its working fine as MPI, its a piece of wee wee to wire up.

fuel pump, some lives, some earths and yoru sorted

[dannyb]

Doesnt the fuel tank and fuel lines need replacing if you are going from carb to MPI though?

[EUROTURBO]

yep and your gonna need a return fuel line off of the gsi too. but as above dont put the carb on it. spend an extra day or 2 it will be worth it.

[Stuart]

fitting a carb (properly) to a 1.6 will make it have the same power as a 1.4..... your best off persivering with the mpi route to keep the 100bhp
