Does Anyone Know How To Tell The Difference Between The 1.6 And 1.9

[309andy 0]

hi everyone, me and my dad bought a supposedly 1.6 205 gti, its got a drum rear beam etc but i noticed that its got a 1.9 inlet maifold and injectors,

 

we measured the stroke which was a bit awkward due to the angle but we got a reading of about 84mm, and some other more random ones, i know a 1.9 is 88mm but i was wondering is there any other way just to make sure? eg is there a code on the block somewhere.

 

 

thanks in advance to anyone who can help

there will be an alloy spacer between the sump and block if its a 1.9

what colour are the injectors ??????????????????????

most 1.9's i have seen also have the bolt on dizzy rather than the 1.6 which is usually just held on with clips either side...

 

ecu and airflow numbers may also help if they have been changed to suit the engine..

Orange/yellowy colour injectors i believe are on the 1.9

whats the engine code ????????????????

the injectors are yellow, where abouts on the engine would i find the engine code jord?

you need to check below the inlet i think on the block face. check the AFM number and ecu number. yellow injectors are 1.9 items. if its not got 1.9 ecu and AFM i think it will be fueling badly
