89 1.6 8 valve distro on a 1.6 16 valve
« on: April 25, 2012, 11:49:53 PM »
I'm in the process of converting my 92 sidekick 1.6 16 valve to carb.  I just ordered an 89 1.6 8 valve distro and base off e-bay.  Anybody had any experience with installing the 8 valve distro on the 16 valve?

Not sure if it works but can I ask why you are doing a carb on that?

They are not interchangable. They rotate in oposite directions.
