Engine Mechanical problem
1995 Geo Prizm 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic

I have a 1995 with a 1.8 engine. My engine blew up and I was wondering if I could put a 1996 1.6 engine into mine without having to rework all of the wiring/brain parts.

In 1996 all cars went to OBDII engine management systems, you would have to change PCM and wiring harness.
