Likewise, how do I find my engine serial number?
The engine type and serial number are found near the front of the vehicle, stamped on the engine block where the transaxle housing and engine block join one another. The engine type is a five-character code, which is followed by and separated from the engine serial number by a hyphen.
- Find your vehicle's engine serial number.
- Go to the Texoma T's website (see Resources).
- Type the engine serial number in the text field next to "Enter a Serial Number and Press Enter."
- Click the "Run Query" tab to decode the serial number.
Considering this, how do I know if my engine is original?
If you want to be sure that your engine is the original engine of your vehicle, then your VIN will tell you which engine the car came with. When you look at the VIN plate or stamp on your engine, the sequence of ending numbers on the Engine VIN stamp should match the Vehicle VIN stamp.
They are eight digits long and are composed only of numbers. They go in a numerical sequence, based on which engine came first off the assembly line.
