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. |

Mepstein, thank you! I will indeed take you up on your offer. I will PM you my details. Generous and kindly appreciated.
So I didn't get the camera in there but by feeling around I find two bolts top side and one center bolt on bottom of the intake manifold leading me to believe it is a 2L. And I've confirmed it has the original fuel lines. Will get a mirror and try to check the front of the fan housing. Thanks for the advice everyone! |
