The 1.6 diesel engine in my van has given up (woodruff key thing on crank has gone)
What engine code should I be looking for? Been told to look for just TD or NA 1.9 diesel by mechanic carrying out swap
Also my van was originally petrol and has a four speed box so what code box should I change to as well for better cruising speed?

If your bus still has the original petrol box you’ve got better ratios that the 1.6d would have been. Have a look for your code to see what you’ve got. A n/a 1.9 diesel is probably going to be easier to find than a td. GTI is the choice of winners and you’ve got all the hardware already
