It would run, I doubt it would run very well though, probably not enough to go off road in it.

Re-jet it first to save taking it off again to do it once you realise its pants ;)

It wont run that badly unless the needle is wayyyy wayyy wrong. The 1.6 and 1.3 engines have quite a similar needle profile. You shouldn't really need to put a new jet in it.

If it was running on a 1.6 it should be dead easy to get it running on your 1.3.

I say stick it on, then stick the needle in later. It's only like 4 screws to change the needle afterwards

BFM needle is correct for the 1.6 engine

When I got mine I ran it for a while on something like an AUZ or an AAZ...
Just the one that came with it lol
