Engine may be identified by Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). VIN is stamped on a metal tab attached to left side of instrument panel, and is visible through the windshield. VIN is also stamped on the Safety Certification Decals (on driver's front door lock panel) and on the Engine Identification Label (on valve cover).
The eighth character of VIN identifies the engine, and tenth character indicates model year. All label numbers are necessary for determining correct parts for specific engine. DO NOT remove labels at any time.
