Sorry all, do you have to get under the car to get the engine number? The car I'm looking at is LPG equipped, and I just can't see it through the top.
Lying under the car I can just see it though, but I'd prefer not to have to jack the car up if I don't have to!

Hi there, if you stand where the drivers side front wheel is and look down there will be a flat bit on the casting just under the exhaust manifold, it might be a little rusty thats why you cant se it also the number is dotted on . Use some emry paper to clean it up a bit, a lead light or torch will help heaps even if its a bright day. cheers mick

Very much after the question was raised in this thread, but relevant for any who follow (like me, who just spent hours rooting around trying to find it)
My FG is the same - it's located where Mick (F6 R-spec) says in the post above. I might be dumb, but it was still hard work even with that info. In case it helps... I'll add: it's perhaps 5 cm above the sump/block join, within a few cm of the bellhousing. The little flat bit of the block it's dot stamped on is not facing forwards, and not facing sideways....but more towards head level and angle if you're standing like mick says... next to the driver front wheel- so pointing a bit outward and upward. You DON'T have to remove the exhaust manifold heat shield like I did (and still took ages to find it) You can see the area just underneath the heat shield, when looking toward the bellhousing/ block join just a little above sump level. I originally couldn't see any numbers, but when I saw a flat area of a few cm there, I wire brushed it and eventually saw the dots. Page 201 of the owner's handbook shows the location, but the printed diagram was no help at all to me. When I looked at a PDF of page 201 it was (just) a bit clearer, but misleading because they show it facing directly forward, which it is not. If this helps just one boofhead like me, my time was well spent. cheers |
