Do 2.5L parts fit 2.2L ?

Featured Replies

Greetings Subies

 

I am yanking the 2.5L out of my 97 O/B and inserting a 95 2.2L from a legacy.

 

Will the following parts from the 2.5 work on the 2.2:

 

Starter motor

Coil pack

Alternator

Timing Belt Covers

 

 

Also, anybody have a good source for quality Sub parts up here in the frozen

North (Canada). Ordering from the States can be a drag with brokerage fees

coming across the border. I need a timing belt/seals kit.

 

 

Thanks

Are both motors coming out of the same type of transmission based car?

 

The starter depends mainly on the transmission, not the engine.

 

Coil pack & alternator I don't see why they wouldn't fit.

 

The timing belt....probably not....is the 2.5 DOHC?

Don't know the origin of the doaner 2.2L. The car receiving the transplant is

 

a 97 O/B Auto and had the 2.5L.

 

 

Cheers & Thanks for your help thus far.

since your 2.5 had DOHC, and the 2.2 isnt DOHC, no, your timing belt covers wont fit, neither will the timing belt. all the accessories will swpa over just fine, i think even the brackets are the same.

Question, I am going to do the same thing. I will be taking out my 2.5 and placing in a 2.2. The WHOLE engine is being swapped (everything). Here is my million dollar question.... Will the transmission work with the 2.5. Help please

Timing Belt Covers - NO

 

As for the transmission, it will bolt up the '97 style.
