Hey everyone im new here just took me half an hour to find out how to post haha

anyway

i have an xreg punto 1.2 8v, but the engine is leaking oil from all over so im planning to change this, but into a 16v as ive heard these are better. (we already had a 16v gearbox put in it)

Is this possible????

Im starting to feel ill be using this often as my Fix It Again Tomorrow (FIAT) is very true to its name haha

Thanks
 
it is but for the results and extra cost its not really worth it better of just buying a 16v punto

insurance will sky rocket as well with a conversion

fiat's only live up to their 'name' if they are poorly looked after
 
well cnt say for the previous owners but i have give it more then tlc spent what i bought it for on parts + another that to pay my mechanic friends to help SO FAR :( think this hopefully will be the last job that needs doing to it. Cant afford to buy a 16v ive put all the money i have into this one.

I wasnt going to tell any1 about the change just to it :S im naughty lol

but then we all get higher insurance premiums when you get caught by your insurance company, thanks (y)
