    Did you check the code. It might be a 1.5L in 1981.

      Cory Anderson yup it's stamped 1.6D on the back

      This and That with Chris someone must’ve swapped in a later engine. Good luck on the swap. Rebuilding a rabbit engine is pretty easy. If you ever wanted to.

      Cory Anderson I do intent on rebuilding the 1.5L engine !

      This and That with Chris here’s the next surprise. They don’t make replacement piston sets for the 1.5L. You might be lucky to find some piston rings. Lots of parts for the 1.6L. The 1.5L is a rare bird. I rebuilt my wife’s 1.5L. I saved the pistons, got the case cleaned and deglazed the cylinders. Not honed bigger. NOS rings, new bearings and put it all back together. Running perfect.

      Cory Anderson I'll likely do the same or I may just replace the head gasket and Carry on hard to say.
