Not to sure about the M13A fitting with the G13BB gearbox. I think it can be done with an adaptor plate*.

Btw, can you easily source a M13A?

seen afew in the bamboo .... but they are all from the swift

you not gonna get a rwd m13a so easy ... as they not from japan.

you would have to get one from singapore.

wrt to the gear box i doubt.

yeah i heard d bamboo have a few...hadda make some time n go hunting....but dat gearbox is a big concern....wrt the gearbox tho Suzuki Sportsman, i take it an adaptor plate would have to be fabricated?....am i lining myself up for heartache or do i stand a chance?...lol.....

The best bet would be to go back with the G13BB engine to save you all the headache.

*edit* Saw the description in your 2nr ride

4 cylinder 1.3L fuel injected G13BB RWD engine with a 5 speed manual trans....

Does the car have a O2 sensor on the exhaust as maybe that was fouled.

Did the mechanic remove all the injectors and clean them? They may need to be cleaned.

Did the mechanic flush the entire fuel system or just the tank? Maybe some residual diesel passed through the system after he cleaned everything and that messed it up again.

Were the spark plugs changed? They may have be fouled by the diesel.

While you might want to change the engine it would probably be a lot cheaper to check all of these things first. Would definitely save you the hassle of hunting in the bamboo for an engine.
