#1: engine blown Author: gushi, Location: uttoxeterPosted: Sun Nov 07, 2010 5:43 pm ---- HI my engine has just blown on my 206 1.4LX. I understand that if I am to replace my engine it has to be the same one with the same number.
Is this correct. If so where do I find this number please help.

If you've got some mechanical experience you can't be a complete novice. I reckon if you make plenty of notes & take loads of pics of what goes where & with a Haynes manual, you can do it.

if its a second car or something then there is no harm in trying but get a haynes manual first
