1.8 8v jh swap done......no power



Cam was set @ stock setting....yes the 1.6 fuel distributor was used.  
The shop didn't think (although they did not know for certian) if the 
1.6 distributor was different from the 1.8.  One of the techs visually 
compared the two....but that was it and the 1.6 distributor was re-used.

Are the distributors different from the 1.6 to the 1.8??
