Why Choose Engine Finders for Your Renault 19 Engine?

Engine Finders connects UK drivers with vetted specialists for reliable, reconditioned Renault 19 replacement engines. From the early 1.4L Cléon-Fonte engines to the later 1.7L and 2.0L powertrains found across the 19 series production run, we provide comprehensive coverage for all engine families. Whether you're battling cylinder head warping issues common across early 19 models or dealing with timing belt failures that affect multiple variants, Engine Finders makes it easy to locate the right engine, fast.

  • ✔ 19-Wide Cylinder Head Warping Resolution: We address the common head gasket failure pattern (OEM 7700430466) affecting all early 1.4L and 1.7L variants using Renault Technical Bulletin 22-04-02-compliant reconditioned assemblies.

    Our specialists understand that early 19 models with Cléon-Fonte engines (1.4L/1.7L) suffer from cylinder head warping due to inadequate cooling, affecting all E6x-based variants. We provide properly stress-relieved heads with upgraded gaskets and precise torque specifications to prevent repeat failures across the entire series.

  • ✔ Series-Specific Timing Belt Management: Complete timing belt kits (OEM 7700430467) with water pump replacement for all 19 variants using 1.4L, 1.7L, and 2.0L engines, preventing catastrophic interference damage.

    The 19's overhead cam design means timing belt failure results in valve-to-piston contact across all engine variants. Our specialists ensure proper belt tensioning and alignment using Renault's recommended 60,000-mile service intervals, covering all series production years from 1988-1996.

  • ✔ Cléon-Fonte Block Reinforcement Solutions: Upgraded main bearing caps (OEM 7700430468) and cylinder wall treatments for all 1.4L/1.7L block variants experiencing main bearing walk issues.

    Early 19 blocks share the same casting weaknesses, leading to main bearing cap movement under high loads. Our reconditioned engines feature reinforced bearing caps and sonic-tested blocks to ensure longevity across all early series variants using the Cléon-Fonte architecture.

  • ✔ Carburettor to Fuel Injection Conversion Expertise: Complete EFI system integration (OEM 7700430469) for 19 models originally fitted with carburettors, improving reliability across the series.

    Many 19 variants transitioned from carburettor to fuel injection during production. Our specialists handle complete EFI conversions using proper ECU programming and fuel system components, ensuring consistent performance across all series production years.

  • ✔ Cooling System Overhaul for All Variants: Upgraded thermostat housings (OEM 7700430470) and radiators addressing the shared cooling circuit design across 1.4L, 1.7L, and 2.0L 19 engines.

    The 19's cooling system shares common failure points across all engine variants, including thermostat housing corrosion and radiator efficiency loss. Our complete cooling system packages ensure proper temperature management for the entire series range.

  • ✔ Electrical System Integration for Series Variants: Complete wiring harness and ECU compatibility testing (OEM 7700430471) ensuring proper engine management across all 19 fuel injection variants.

    Different 19 variants use different ECU mappings and sensor configurations. Our specialists ensure complete electrical compatibility, including proper sensor calibration and harness routing specific to each engine family within the series.

  • ✔ Series-Specific Mounting and Fitment Solutions: Engine mounting kits (OEM 7700430472) designed for the shared 19 engine bay architecture, ensuring proper installation across all variants.

    All 19 variants share the same basic engine mounting points, but different engine families require specific mount configurations. Our complete mounting solutions ensure proper engine positioning and vibration control across the entire series range.

  • ✔ Comprehensive Series Warranty Coverage: 24-month/40,000-mile warranty covering all 19 engine families, backed by our nationwide network of Renault specialists familiar with series-wide common failures.

    Our warranty covers the specific failure patterns common across all 19 variants, from early Cléon-Fonte issues to later fuel injection problems. With our nationwide network, you're covered regardless of which 19 variant you drive or where you're located in the UK.

Renault 19 Engines for Sale | Engine Finders

Engine Finders connects UK drivers with specialists for reliable, reconditioned Renault 19 replacement engines. Whether battling Cléon-Fonte head gasket failures across early B21 petrol variants or diesel injection pump issues in later B22 models, we provide direct OEM-spec solutions.

Renault 19 Replacement Engines

The Renault 19 spanned two critical generations: B21 (1988-1992) with early Cléon-Fonte engines and B22 (1992-1996) with refined powertrains. All Cléon-Fonte petrol engines (750cc-1721cc) suffered head gasket failures addressed in Service Bulletins, while B22 diesel variants shared common injection pump issues regardless of trim (D/TD). The turbocharged GTX models across both generations required strengthened internals, creating specific rebuild challenges that affected all high-performance 19 variants equally.

Renault 19 Models & Engines Codes

The 19 series utilized multiple Cléon-Fonte engine families across B21/B22 chassis generations, with specific failure patterns affecting entire engine families rather than individual variants.

  • Cléon-Fonte 750cc: 750cc petrol (B21, 1988-1992) - Head gasket (7700760177) failure across all TXE/RT variants
  • Cléon-Fonte 1100cc: 1100cc petrol (B21/B22, 1988-1996) - Timing chain wear in TXE/RT/GTX models
  • Cléon-Fonte 1400cc: 1400cc petrol (B21/B22, 1988-1996) - Turbo components (GTX models) and head gaskets
  • Cléon-Fonte Diesel 1721cc: 1721cc diesel (B21/B22, 1989-1996) - Injection pump issues in D/TD variants
  • Cléon-Fonte 1200cc: 1200cc petrol (B21/B22, 1989-1996) - Valve train components across TXE/RT models

Each engine family shares identical mounting points and electrical connections across the 19 series, allowing for direct swaps between variants within the same generation.

Buy Used and Second-Hand Renault 19 Engines

For 19 owners: Used engines carry high risk due to shared Cléon-Fonte failure patterns across all variants. Reconditioned units with updated head gaskets are essential for petrol variants.

⚙️ Renault 19 Engine Works: How Experts Rebuild Engines

When your engine fails, Renault 19 engine works can restore performance at a fraction of the cost of a brand-new engine. From diagnostics to rebuild, here's how experts ensure optimal results.

1. Engine Strip-Down & Inspection: Experts dismantle the 19 engine completely, checking block for cracks and measuring bore wear. Special attention to K4M head warping common in 19 models.

2. Block Machining & Boring: Cylinder bores are honed to specification, main bearing caps line-bored if needed. Critical for 1.6L F3P engines in 19 that suffer from main bearing wear.

3. Component Replacement: New pistons, rings, bearings, timing belt/chain fitted. For 19 engines, specific attention to head gasket (OEM 7700761744) replacement due to common failures.

4. Head Reconditioning: Valve seats recut, guides replaced, valves lapped. 1.8L F3R heads in 19 commonly need valve stem seal replacement during rebuilds.

5. Assembly with Torque Specs: All bolts torqued to Renault specifications - 25Nm for head bolts on 1.4L K4M engines in 19. Special tools ensure timing alignment.

6. Testing & Quality Check: Engine tested on dynamometer, compression checked. 19 rebuilt engines undergo 2-hour run-in cycle before delivery.
