The engine number will be located on a flat pad on the left rear of the engine as I remember. I hope I'm not getting the location of that one mixed up with another.

Get subscibed to EPC and when you do you can enter your VIN and get a "datacard." Datacard will show engine number.

kent - Where in EPC is the data card? I don't see it in there in any of the pull-down menus. Thanks!

Click on "functions" on the top menu bar after you have entered the VIN. Data card should be there for the clicking. One of my vehicles (87 560SEC) does not display the data card but my earlier EURO and later vehicles do. I wonder what's up with that? Mark
