Split_Pin Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 I'm currently finding out if I can use the engine and loom with my 1.0 gearbox. I shall report back. Cavcraft 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bub2006 Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 1.0 I'm pretty sure is a f13 box. Same as a 1.4 manual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
320touring Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 Iain, if as bub says, the gearbox is the same, the loom shouldn't be much problem. Likely its only the ecu/clocks and engine bay side loom that is different. They'll likely connect into the main car loom under the dash. Should be able to either unplug and swap, or splice it in as needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Split_Pin Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 Yes I was thinking that. We Scots have a habit of travelling to London for old Vauxhalls though! outlaw118, The Moog and Cavcraft 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bub2006 Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 From what I recall the 1.6 had either f13 or f15, bigger had f18 and anything with cr in code was a close ratio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sierraman Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 Nae response from the Corsa pages regarding a sensible technical question. Does anyone else know the answer here?You often find there's quite a few differences between the engine fitted to Autos and Manual. The radiator often incorporates an ATF cooler, the flywheel might be different etc. On the other hand it will have had an easier life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Split_Pin Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 That's ok I have everything else to make it a manual in my existing car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lisbon_road Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 Probably crankshaft different for flywheel fitment too? Remember also that the auto Corsas got the single point injection engine, unlike auto Astras which were multipoint or twin cam. The SPi engine is adequate in a Corsa mind.

pandamonium Posted May 18, 2017 Author Share Posted May 18, 2017 Price reduced before I throw it to the eBay wolves. It needs a thermostat and temp sensor, less than 30 quid all in. I'll entertain swaps or trades. .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
