BERTMAN 40 1 Cars Posted May 10, 2006 thats what i thought, until i read on here that its the 75hp unit out of the SR not the TU3s? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rippthrough 98 Posted May 10, 2006 thats what i thought, until i read on here that its the 75hp unit out of the SR not the TU3s? I'm 90% sure its the TU3S, but I think there's a few owners on here, so they can confirm/ridicule. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sandy 189 Posted May 10, 2006 It is the TU3.2, an amalgum of later Iron block and earlier alloy head, with two stage Solex carb. 75bhp, it is not an XS engine, even though it looks like one from above, the only other model to feature this engine spec afaik was the 106 pre cat, non-injection 1.4.

trogboy 17 Posted May 10, 2006 The carbs are slightly different between the rallye and the XS as well; apart from being jetted differently and the carb on the rallye has a smaller secondary venturi. The cam is different too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
