I think the 1.6CS engine is really dead!!Angry
 
Looking about at cheap alternatives i have found the 1Y engine, but hve a few questions before i take the plunge:
 
  • Will it fit straight in, ie no other parts required?
  • I am guessing that there will be a noticable difference in performance between the dead 1.6 and the relatively fresh 1Y?
  • does this engine have any week spots? anything i should be looking for when buying?
  • Will there be any parts that will need to be reused from my old engine?
 
I am sure these questions have all been asked before(sorry if so), but i am having trouble finding the answers.
