So, I've had this "affliction" for a while and I've succumbed. Bought myself a '73 2.0 supposedly. I'm looking the car over trying to get familiar with whatever it is in my driveway now and where to start on the repairs. I could use some help from the experts here.
I'm trying to figure out what the engine is but I cannot find any part number stampings, only what I believe to be case matching numbers. And, I haven't been underneath the car yet, still trying to work that one out. Here are some pictures of the engine bay. It has Webers but note the dipstick is short - seems the tube is reduced down to the case level. Thanks for your help. |

The picture above shows a 2 L head with 3 studs for the intake manifold. My name Is Joe Sharp and I live just outside of DeLand. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) And also based on the angle of the spark plugs. If you look at plug #3 and think "That looks like a bitch to get that plug out" it is a 2.0L. The 1.7 & 1.8 had the plugs pointing closer to straight up. |
