do the 1.4 16v have different throttle cables? cos i got one, its the right length but my engine aint got a ball joint, its got a small hole for a cable end to slot into...

cheers mate yeh ive just been doin it, the hoses are the same size as the pipes so its easy peezy!

just go down the scrappy cut the two ends off with some pipe excess and link them upto you pipes with hose joiners and hose clips

i did it and it was and is fine

cheers mate, yeh ive got the ones i need just need an efficient way to connect them to the fuel rails?

I have a spare end which connects to the fuel rail if your interested

nah mate, the P/s models have different mounts on the left, as they are bolted into the frame, whereas non P/S models have surface mounted mounts...

thats not really important, just need to know how to change the ends on the fuel lines, as i got the MPI pump and the connectors just need a way to chnage the ends..

what ya mean ya got different monuts, swap the mounts to the one that hols the PS pump then sort it later? mayb, mind you i dunno if the PS will burn out with no fluid in it

no mate cos the engine mount is connected to that, and ive got different mounts!! so thats y its off in the first place

carnt ya just fit the PS pump but have it running nothing at the mo

i aint really looked cos the engines in now...

i was thinkin about gettin a ribbed belt to the same as the v-belt..

or i will see if i can swap em.. dont think i can because of the sensor on the crank..

right so your alternator, crank shaft pulley are running a ribbed belt and originally you had a v belt, so you need to reun this ribbed belt some how, carnt ya just swap the alternator and crank pulley?

just foned em, they wanted fukin 45 for the pump! paid 10 last time!

yeh ive changed the fuel pump before, thats not so bad.... so i should be able to change the pump, bodge the ends...

now another problem for you's!

i havent got P/S, so i didnt have the correct engine mount, took the P/S mount off, used my old one, but now ive made a bracked so the alternatore slides, but can i just use another belt to fit the crank and the alternator?

i askd in the vauhall place, but they aint got a clue, he said i gotta change the wheels...!?

tut tut, i hate them transponder things, lee mitchel is ya man on this, the MPI fuel pump is a multi point injection fuel pump, you WILL need htis, fold ya rear seats foward to reveal a black round plastic cover, under this is ya fuel pump which sits in the fuel tank remove ya 8v one get one from a 16V corsa any will do as long as its MPI and stick it in its place, think ya need a special tool to remove the pump but ya can also bodge it out, haynes manual time for you i tink

oh rite ok, just need to find some ends then...

yes it has feed and return..

wots teh MPI pump and where does it go?!! i wish i knew about this before its silly now!

i cant wire in the transponder cos i dont know how to wire the blue/red wires in either

think ya can just change the ends???? make sure ya got a MPI fuel pump too, as long as ya got a fuel feed and return ya will be aright, changin the fuel lines as a whole would be a bitch i would imagine, i know ya can change the ends when converting to a 2litre so dont see why ya carnt here

not to sure about changing what u have but i dont think theres a return on a 8v is there?

i thought u need to add a return pipe?

could be wrong though

and also u need an MPI pump...

ive had loads of unexpected problems with this now and its gettin silly!

ive been told i know have to change the fuel lines in the whole car... the old connectors are clip on, but the new engine has screw on...

do i need to change the whole lines?! :mad:
