Hello,
What is the easiest way to find my 914's engine serial number? It is a 1973 2.0L with no mods. I have a lift and have been looking from the bottom up, but I am thinking it needs to be viewed from the engine compartment on the topside? I've searched the Interweb hoping to find a video of where to find it, but haven't located it. Maybe I'll make one once I find mine (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Can another member point me to an existing thread or walk me through step-by-step? Thank you, Erik |

The engine number on a 1.7/1.8 is stamped on the top of the case st the flywheel end. The serial number on a 2.0 is just below the oil filler assembly. Some cases have no number. Early bus T4 engines had the number stamped on the fan housing.
The positioning of the numbers has been discussed here many times, and is available via the search function. The Cap'n |
