Help, where is my engine number!?

Post by Builtnotbought » Thu Nov 10, 2016 7:45 pm

So it pains me too have to ask, but where on earth is my engine number?

I did an engine swap all those years ago and never got as far as needing parts before it came off the road.

If it makes any difference, it's a Santana engine

Cheers

Are you running the 1.6? If so it'll be a g16, is it an 8v or 16v?

What parts are you looking for?

It's the 1.0l Santana.

Currently I want a cam belt kit as it's been sat for 8 years and after all this work it would be a shame for me to get it going for the Cam belt to fail.

I think there's 2 lengths of cambelt that were used on the f10, the engine number should be around the gearbox bell housing on the passenger side I think, I'm pretty sure i have some new genuine suzuki ones in both sizes and I'm not far from you.

I wouldn't worry too much about firing it up without changing it any way, these engines are non interference so if the cambelt fails no damage will be done :thumbup:
