dear converters
Last years failure of our trusty 1.6TD caused us to replace with 1.9TD
not all was seamless--- (Work done by the highly competent Wagan Works in
Garden City, Idaho)
the dip stick sleeve needs to be extended to fit -
the water pump mounts a little funny ...
every thing that previously fit the 1.6 block now requires 10mm additional
--
due to 1.9 size difference --
all other stuff like pan and pump and starter fit without trouble
yours

There are two kinds of jobs in the world:
Picking up garbage and telling people things.
Successful people do both, with the same good attitude. (riw)
