having put a 1.6 16v engine in place of a 1.2 8v, to change the fuel pump to mpi, does this need to be just the pump changed, or the tank aswell?

also, will my 1.2 8v radiator fit for the 1.6 16v, as i've been told both that it will, and also that it wont...

Aslo, do I remove the old coil pack??

Cheers

i bought a 1.6 radiator for my conversion from 1.2 8v to 1.6 16v just to be on the safe side. Not too much from a scrap yard and i think they are more powerful than a 1.2 8v's. Better to be safe than sorry. And if you have electric clocks try getting an f17 gearbox or use the f13 from the 1.2 8v as i bought the f15 and have had a nightmare getting the cable driven box to work with my electric clocks.(but finally think i got it sorted)
