Glen;
        The 2.1L has the second oil pressure gauge below the water pump.
It also has the oil-to-water heat exchanger between the oil filter and
the block.
        The 1.9L's thermostat is under the water pump where the 2.1L's is
mounted in a tower at the flywheel end.

Drive Safely & Good Luck
