Default Whats the difference......

My mate has a 4x4 saff like me but with a few differences.

His 205 block is in Blue,
Mines Black.

His oil filter is located at the back corner of the block and mines
at the side!

I'm new to the cossie ownership so i may be a bit thick at times (i'm a brummie, it happens).

Who has the correct block, i've tried to see if it's a 205 or a 200 but theres that much in the way ya can't see.

If anyone can shed any light on this that would be great.

Cheers

Colour of the block is irrelevant, probably just been painted......

A 4x4 should have a 200 block, the 205 is from the 2wd....

the oil filter's are different on the 2wd and 4x4.

The 2wd one is smaller and is fitted directly onto the oil/water cooler modine, whereas on the 4x4 is it bigger and mounted on a remote body pointing readwards towards the oil pressure switch.

Hope that helps.......
