its a straight swap. not sure if it runs on the 1.0 ECU or not, if it does let me know lol...

I currently run a cga3de on a 1.0 gearbox (as my gearbox broken and i could only source a 1.0 box).

I also know somebody whose done a conversion from 1.0 to 1.4, he said its very easy, his also using the 1.0 gearbox but he is using the 1.4 ecu...

depends on what engine you have already. do you have a CG10 or a CGA1?

he's got a CGA1 most likely as he has 2000> car.

according to the autodata cd, all the 1.0,s are CG10DE,s (55hp pre2000, 60hp pre2002)

did the coilpack models not have the cga code?

Likewise, I have the

but I wish to install the

is it only the engine that needs updating? nex, how much cash do you want for doing it if I get the engine? any other parts I should get hold of first? by the way, it's an auto!

ok well its all down to the coil packs then, if the current engine doesn't have a coilpack system then lots of modification to the wiring will have to be done

 

[rlees85]

that engine you have is coilpack and the cga3de will swap straight in.

The mythical "CGA1DE" is actually CG10DE but with a different ECU, loom and head but it shares the same engine code.

I was offered a 4000 miles 1.4 manual for £££, but he said it didn't have a starter or alternator, but the mileage was confirmed and it had a 3 month warranty. I asked him for an auto though. I'm still looking around for a good one, ... if it's a straight swap then who wants a go at installing it and at what price?

I should think that you could drop a manual straight in with no problem.

I wish to keep it as an automatic though. very sick of traffic jams and congestion and constantly moving my feet about. the auto is more practical. Anyway, the manual has the 'alternator' and 'starter kit' missing.

Changing the engine is not really my thing. don't have time to read up on it because of work, part-time uni, guitar practise and much reading and fitness to do
