Question Whats the Difference

I was wondering the differences between the 12a motors which is what i have and the 13B motors? Anyone have a good explanation of the differences?

Well, the main difference is that the 12A is a 1.1 litre engine and the 13B is a 1.3 litre engine. To make it a 1.3, the rotors are 10MM wider then the 12A and thus the eccentric shaft is longer and the rotor housings are thicker.
