Fitting a diesel engine.

[JasonB]

OK, I know a thread title like this starts a few people crying no! and running to the hills but I'm just thinking out loud at this stage.

i currently have a 1990 2.2 coupe that's not been used for a year.
I'm currently looking at ways to keep it in my ownership and one thing that could sway it is better mpg.
Does anyone have any info of diesel engine swaps done on these?
I'm not clued up on the relevant models codes so any simple advice would be most welcome. Maybe even a set up taken from another manufacturer?
I've tried the search but didn't find anything.

Thanks
JB
