#1: Engine swap PLEASE HELP Author: DylanAWRoberts, Posted: Sun Jun 02, 2013 1:11 pm ---- Hey guys,
So i bought a vtr engine for my 1.1 206 engine swap and i have hit a rather large barrier with the engine looms as my new ecu wont fit the 1.1 loom and the new 1.6 vtr loom wont fit the 1.1 fuse box i am in a right spot of trouble and have been swapping round sensors from the 1.1 onto the 1.6 block but i suspect doing so will either one make it not run at all or two run very lumpy and slow because of it thinking there is a 1.1 instead of a 1.6 if anyone could help me out that would be great or if anyone knows a loom that would fit that would solve it all i thought maybe the 1.6 glx loom could work but dont have anyone around me who has one so i cant check! thanks in advance for your help!

i still cant see where this plug is supposed to go, that plug is supposed to go where there is no plig pluged in on the fuse box there is no loom on my 1.1 where that can plug in the only wire that goes down passenger side by the bumper is the fog light :/

i have the car close by, the fuse box in the saxo is also incompatible with the loom on my car :/ as my fuse box has plugs for the battery lights and everything els where as the saxos box doesnt i think im going to have to get a loom of a 1.6 hid or glx 206 to get this to work :/

#15: Re: Engine swap PLEASE HELP Author: DylanAWRoberts, Posted: Sun Jun 02, 2013 4:32 pm ---- if i get the loom of this model could i just bipass all these issues? the ecu on this car looks the same as my 1.6 ecu or would i need both the ecu and loom?
