The engine in my 1986 bubble back ford lazer seized in hot weather last week after a heater hose burst. I now have an oportunity to buy a engine from a wrecked 1985 bubble back ford lazer. My question is, are the engines interchangable between 1985 and 1986 model ford lazers?
Any help you can give will be much apreciated.

There are B6 (1.6), B3 (1.3), and B5 (1.5 which arent common) engines.
Then theres EFI or carbie.
Im assuming neither are TX3 or 4WD as some of these had B6T (1.6 turbo) and I think even BPT (1.8 turbo, although I think these were only in later models) engines.
If the two you have are the same, then yes its an easy swap as Im fairly certain all bubble backs were unleaded, 85 was the change over year.
