engine Identification
We've got this bug in the back yard and my Dad seems to think the engine in it is a 1500. i don't agree, I beleive it is a 1300 but am not
sure. the engine no. is F (i think, hard to read) 1 035 039
If it is a 1300 how much difference in power/performance is there between it and a 1500? |

Best bet is to measure inside diameter of one of the pots with a head off this should give you an idea of your capacity I have my engine apart now,
when I got my car the owner told me it was a custom 1700 which he brought off an engine builder in melb turns out it ain’t nothing but a stock 1600
then again I think I still got my $50 worth.
Another idea is to check if its twin port or single if its twin is probably a 1600. |

H = 1500, I think an F is a 1200 from memory. (Found an F motor single port beside the highway on the canberra side of goulburn a couple years ago!
 jammed it under the bonnet of the superbug and took it home) it was
complete minus the carby and distributor too!
If it aint broke,
Make it go faster!!  |
