RE: Engine number location

Are you talking about the actual engine number? Or just the engine model on the VIN code. I believe it's the 6th and 7th digits.

RE: Engine number location

There is a metal plate near the battery that has numbers on it. I know the VIN is one of the numbers and I imagine one is the engine number.

The engine number is usually on a sticker on the front of the timing cover.

RE: Engine number location

There are two locations; one supplied by Tech, the other is in tight quarters and you may need a flashlight + inspection mirror.

I hope this helps. The attached pic will be deleted within the next few days so save it quick!
