TOSCO Posted January 3, 2006 Report Share Posted January 3, 2006 Hi, i need some help with engine numbers: I know all the first ones, eg 3S-GE 3= 3rd vr S= block G= cam (either wide or twin) E= efi But what about the other numbers that come after, do they mean anything? eg: "UG4HFM551628" is quoted as an engine number, any ideas what this comes off/after? Thanks a lot, this is very important! TOSCO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TOSCO Posted January 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2006 So is ther anyway of know an info from the numbers after it? eg, "only a 1g-gt1 has a P7XXXX" or sumthing? or does anyone else have "UG4" or somthing close? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TOSCO Posted January 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2006 yes :D poorly listed ad's my friend :y: don't worry, i take it they following numbers mean nothing. Ill jsut have to go inspect the good my self... Although, does anyone know if the cc on the rego papers is 100% correct? Or is is jsut estimated? EG: Mechanic - "Wells its about 2ltr, ill jsut write 1997cc", or do they find the engine number and say "3S-GE, well thats acctually 1998cc". ??

muller Posted January 4, 2006 Report Share Posted January 4, 2006 (edited) i know it isnt exactly what you were after but ive found this site to help out sometimes when i don't know something about an engine. its only simple stuff but you get that i also have never seen a site with so many diff engines specs on one page. http://www.geocities.com/MotorCity/Pit/997...ineEngines.html admin should put it in the wiki or something i think, will help out other people.
