Is it possible to put a non turbo 1.9 D BX engine into a Xantia and fit the turbo back on ?
Does anyone have a 1.9td engine that they want to sell ?

No. Whilst outwardly similar the N/A and turbo engines are really very different.

Not personally - mine is very much still in use! You should be able to get one from a breakers without too much grief though.

As Richard says they are stunningly different, different compression, cams, pistons etc, the head on the TD also has oil galleries etc
I found it VERY difficult to locate one at a breakers largely because they have a tendancy to end up back in taxi's, and because of this they can be VERY expensive. Better option might be to look for a crash damaged Xantia and buy the whole thing!

Hi Nigel
I've just spotted a damaged Xantia with good turbo engine on ebay. Go to www.ebay.co.uk and do a search on Xantia. It's at £22 at the moment and is in Dorking, Surrey.
Hope this helps
