Which cam belt?

[marius3k]

Hello again!
I went to a local car parts shop to buy a cam belt and a "roller/tensioner" and they said that there are 2 cambelts: a 91 and a 93 "teeth" version.
Which one should I buy for my 198x k10/ma10-40kw engine?

Thanks!

I imagine one is for the 1.2 and one is for the 1.0 litre cars... but I dont know which way around

Maybe one it's for the 36kw version of the ma10 and one for thr 40kw version?
In my car's history there is an engine change. Now, I don't know if I have the 36kw or the 40kw version of the ma10 How can i find out?

the early 1.0 have square teeth and after 88 they are round just look at which shape youve got...1.0 have 91 and 1.2 have 93

indeed i believe the reason for the 1.2 having more teeth is due to the head being slightly larger due to the extra bore/stroke it has. IIRC

should of counted the teeth on your old belt.

Yeah, I know, but I it was easier to ask, no?

indeed! counting would be a right pain! lol
