How about you just have your diesel chipped? Will take make life alot easier or would it still be slow?

i'm doing the same with my van, ive just bought a whole donor car 1.6 16v zetec to replace the 1.8d starting in 3 weeks so i'll let you know. i cant forsee any problems with the wiring if you mark it all up properly, i think i'll struggle with tank if you could let me know what your'e doing with that.

They wont do fuck all on the 1.8d engines, i put up with mine being slow for 3 years, i had a tonne out of it tho

Don't think you can chip a non-turbo Diesel??

I think you are correct Christian, you can wind open the fuel pump on the early engines though, makes a slight difference!

Personally i wouldnt bother, not worth the hassle and it will still be slow with a 2ltr petrol engine in it
