Brian the differance in the bolts is hard to detect. I have had to point out the differance to most people as the cant see any. The 2.1 bolt is tapered at the outer edge of the shoulder other than that the rods do look the same. The copper showing on the rod bearings is the poof that the rods are indeed worn out and I would say these are most likely 2.1 rods . this could be a 1.9 crank and rods but I would not think so. the proof will be when you try to fit the oil rings onto the pistons the 1.9 oil rings are thicker give a call when you can Bob Donalds As always all rights reserved |
