Please read the next paragraph, my 1.4 blew up on the motorway, trying to figure out
right i am back on this forum after quite a while and i have had problems with my
ibiza 1.4,
basically i went away for 2 months came back got in the car drove down the road and it died, ii have had a mechanic look at it and it apears the timing is out wich points to the tansioner on the cambelt being at fault, i now have fire and oil coming from my air manifold when i try to turn the car over,
my friend is a mechanic and we are towing the car to his garage on tuesday, we think that the probable solution will be a new (second hand) engine, so we thought wot can we put in it instead of a standard 1.4 engine? we need somthing that will be a straight forward fit,
my question is does anyone know of any engines wich are a straight fit? maybe a 1.6 vw golf engine or just a standard 1.6
ibiza engine, also are there any problems wich need to be highlited when trying somthing like this
