its prob single point injection cos it looks identical to a carb, they never fitted carbs to corsas as they were all fitted with cats and therefore injection | |

Nah - according to ALL official publications (vaux brochures, parkers car guide etc). Not one corsa rolled off the production line with a carb! They were all injection, as the corsa was vauxhalls first proper step into the economy hatch back, so it didnt make sense to carry on using the Carb. | |

The old corsas as some are aware were novas with a different body so im guessing that they probably did come from the nova | |

Ahh, mystery solved. I was under the impression that when the Corsa was released in 93, so were all the engines. Fuel injection was standard on all i thought. Obviously not! So were the 1.2 carbs from the Nova? | |

Tis true! Back then it did but as the years progressed and vauxhall became more technologically advanced the cars became injected! My refernece the max power haynes manual | |

Someone i know at work has a 1993 Corsa Merit 1.2. I was helping him with a knocking problem he heard under the bonnet. I asked him why he has put a carburettor on his 1.2. He told me it came like that as standard. Is it true that the Corsa came with a 1.2 engine with carburettor? |
