'91L "AquaMutt" my '91L; B6 swap/5 speed & Aspire brakes, DD/work car

'93GL "Luxstiva," '94 B6 engine & ATX; needs overhauled
'89L "Muttstiva," now a storage bin, future trailer project -
I allways thought a VW turbo deisel would be cool in a festiva.....and actually give it some power......but somthing tells me that fitting it would be very hard.....we have problems with our engine swaps due to the steering rack and on VW's the exaust manifold/turbo are on the back side of the engine
Too bad!Previous owner of 8 festivas... looking for number 9

Re: Cool Homebuilt Diesel Metro
Could be good idea if driving in city daily... I did think about it before installing the Kohler engine so I could save alot money with gas if I just do driving in city/traffic only. but I didn't have time to mess with my festiva and maybe in future I will keep in my mind.Originally posted by Safety GuyHere ya go:

If you ever go with a Kohler you should look at and stay away from certian models......
Stay away from any 25hp v twin models air or liquid cooled....they suffer from head gasket problems!
The best models for reliability are the 20hp Air cooled V Twin
And the 26hp fuel injected V Twin engine......awsome power...reliable and awsome on fuel .....plus they will start right away on a cold day.
I do landscaping and run kohler engines all day every day.....all in all they are great.....but stay away from that 25hp model!!!!!Previous owner of 8 festivas... looking for number 9

I saw that a few months ago. Can you imagine what a turd it is? A stock Festiva is slow, now divide the power by 6 and you have quarter miles times measured with a sun dial, you could take a nap from 0-60 .....1986 Comp Prep SVO Mustang(1 of 83) Four cylinder turbo! (Think first Fox body "R" model!)
1995 F-150 Extra Cab and it was free!
1991 Festiva L, Surf Blue with A/C
1995 Jeep Cherokee 2wd 5 speed 4.0 and it was free!
1993 Aqua Festiva and it was cheap!
1994 Brake Swap and it was cheap!
1969 Ford F100 Big Block Ranger and it was free! (coming 2/12)Comment
