Hi!
Do you know if the 306 GTI6 oil pump would feet the BX engine?
Will this pump provide better oil catch and pressure?

I believe it can be fitted from what i have read on the 205 forums. I think it involves changing the master pulley and possibly the chain length.
But i would look to simply increasing the feed pressure of the existing pump, adding a spacer (thus more oil) and fitting a decent set of baffles. Not to mention an AC/Alloy sump if it isn't already on!

The 1.9TD or the 2.1TD?

1.9TD, we don't have the 2.1 here so am not sure if the same but
most of the models of XU engs share some parts.

Just put in a 2.0 TCT pump, it has a higher flowrate and a 6 Bar top pressure, intead of 4/5 bar.
Fits like a glove, without modifications. Just plug and play.
