ive just been offered an engine from a 2001 dse with 40000 miles on it,i think its just a straight swap but not sure if the new engine needs coding to the ecu or should it just fire straight up,

cheers
Gareth
 
fire styraight up i think!! although thats assuming your putting it in a doozel rangey of the same model. if your putting it in a BMX frame then you need it coding!!
 
cheers Gav,its a 2001 going into a 98 probably just the air flow meter and egr to get rid of the newer engine,wifes just asked me why i am wanting to convert to diesel and not keep it petrol:doh::doh:,hence the reason i dont let her anywhere near the drivers seat,
 
tell her its because the newer doozel has a photon erradicator that actually promotes tree growth as you drive along!!!


that should fcuk her up for a while!!!

anyone got the code to put a V8 into my bmx frame :D
 
You didn't know you had to turn the handlebars to the left 4 times before entering the code.

be a fcuking hell of a lot easier to leave the engine in the 2001 and get it on the road though.

the 2001 was parked on a building site last year when a low loader carrying a 40 excavator reversed over the back end of it,to say it was an uneconomical repair would be an understatement.
