Lancer Cs1 2002 - How To Find The Engine Number

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

I was unable to locate the engine number physically on the engine body. Does anyone know where to look for? The vehicle is for sale, but when a potential buyer comes, he/she looks for the engine number on the engine and can't locate anything and leave without a result. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Just now I removed that exhaust cover, but I couldn't see a number behind that cover, then again the exhaust unit is blocking from view some areas of the engine. Seems like I have to take the vehicle to a garage to remove the exhaust unit first and see it.

My vehicle has sort of a problem; that it got duplicate vehicle registration book since the time I bought the vehicle, apparently the previous owner also had duplicate registration book.

But so far no troubles from the RMV. If there were to be any funny business with the vehicle previously, I should have known by now already since the vehicle is registered for 5 years under my name.

Could it be that this vehicles' engine was replaced previously and it doesn't have an engine number or was scratched off??

Or could it be I can't simply see the engine number??

Does the manifacturer hide the engine number from the view , so that special effort should be paid to obtain the engine number

I can vaguely see the engine number in the image you have shared (left to the engine oil dipstick and right above the exhaust manifold heat shield bolt on the left).

Edit: Removed image

Davy,

That's not the engine number. I have attached a photo of it. It says GI-S4FF.

Good news ! Found the engine number! Didn't want to remove the exhaust mainfold heat shield. Basically the engine number is located on the right side of the engine. You have to keep your eye just above the radiator cap and look into the mid section of the engine just off the right side mid section of the exhaust mainfold heat shield. There is a window you need to see through it. Herewith I have attached some photos, forgive me for the bad lighting, and the engine # is in a very tight space for you to see
