I have a 1997 Geo metro with a 3 cyl. 1.0L motor It starts up fine I can drive for up to an hour turn it off then it is really hard to start and then runs really ruff then when I get it stasrted I have to rev it up for 2 or 3 minutes before it will idle alright. I have replaced the fuel pump, relay and fuel filter, also an 02 censor. But the problem still persits. So any ideas?
Thank You...
yes it will if the year model and body style are the same and it dose not have to be the exact same year model i would find out which years fit your sisters car you can call most good body shops and they can tell you or call you local Chevy dealer to find out what years will fit

The timing marks are as follows
1. there is a "V" on the cylinder head cover.
2. Timing mark on camshaft timing belt gear
3. "Arrow mark" oil pump case
4. Punch mark on crankshaft gear.

Disconnect the negative battery cable.
Drain the cooling system.
CAUTION
When draining the coolant, keep in mind that cats and dogs are attracted by the ethylene glycol antifreeze, and are quite likely to drink any that is left in an uncovered container or in puddles on the ground. This will prove fatal in sufficient quantity. Always drain the coolant into a sealable container. Coolant should be reused unless it is contaminated or several years old.
Remove the air cleaner assembly.
Loosen but do not remove the four coolant pump pulley bolts.

This is Part One of a series where I document my troubles with the Camshaft Position Sensor. This first
They come with a 3 or 4 cyl engine, but either way it would not take much to make it run rough. Usually a miss-fire under load is ignition related. Have you checked or replaced the plugs, cap, rotor, and wires ? If not I would start with an inspection of that first.
I don't know if it will physically bolt in or much about either motor really. However, most states have an emissions inspection that requires hooking a computer up to the OBDII connector. Installing an OBDI engine and ecm into an OBDII car won't allow you to pass inspection and is technically illegal. The other way around, would be fine as far as inspection anyway.
inspect the engine for arching from ignition wire to the engine ground on number three cylinder listen for a zapping sound . turn engine off and make sure the wire connections are solid then retry if it fixes the problem
Your timing belt is worn out. Some days it runs good because the cogs are lined up. The next time you start it, it maybe backfires just a touch, and it's out of time. Today, it's really out. Or maybe even broken.
