Thanks for your kind reply
Can you plz tell me about diesel engine 1c & 2c
Many people are telling about diesel engines are way better than petrol bcoz its economic and last longer
@mshoaib432722
Im planning to buy any one of old used car like 1976, 78, 80 or 1982 toyota corolla for home use.. im living in little bit hilly area
Ok. Then 4k petrol is a definite NO for these cars.
Also 2c and 1c wub be a NO from my point of view because these engines are HEAVY. I doubt that the frame of these cars can bear this much weight. Even if some mechanic fits it, the car might get too heavy to give good fuel economy.
Try 1N diesel engine. That engine is made for light weight diesel cars.
If some petrol engine is available (1800cc, 2000cc etc), thats the best because of diesel engine harsh starting issues in winter on hills.
I think imrankiyani707, 4K is a good option. also 5k & 7k if you can find them.
all of these mentioned engines from toyota are work horse engines. Since you are looking for low priced car and engine, there is no point looking for too much economy.
1c and 2c are bit overkill for 74-84 models of corolla, though some users are driving them succesfullly.
4k IMO gets atleast 10km/ltr.

Brother what is your suggestions for me ?
Is it good 76, 78, 80 or 82 corolla with diesel engine or petrol engine?
Diesels are good if you can take care it properly. You will get powerful engine, happy to bear load, tunning less (as compared to petrol), and dheet engine. On negative side, it will be noisy, smokey, and vibrating.
Otherwise, petrol is vice versa.
With models of corolla you mentioned, petrol is recommended. If i were you, i would have bought 82, remove 4k, and install 7k with 5 speed gear. 7k might be available in EFI also.
