    Default Need a quick hand with a 95 barina

    Have a friend whos 1.3L 1995 model and im looking for a service page on how the drive blets go. Im assuming there is 2 from what i have seen and also the thing wont start with out the belts but i was assuming that it could still start but it would heat up. When i took the air filter cover off there was oil in the pan so to speak. I know this isnt norm so what could it be.? Ill be fitting the belts tomorrow just would like to know im putting them on right. Any help would be great...

    Cheers.

    Well I'm probably no help. But your saying oil is coming out of the air filter? Did they say what it was doing before it crapped itself? If it's efi it should produce error codes same as the commies look for same diagnostic stuff. And it's a barina not a rebadged suzi (first couple of barinas were just suzuki swifts with the badges changed don't know what year they swapped to opels).
