Engine Number

Subject: Purchasing a "MX5" Eunos Roadster.

> > 1) I have been unable to locate the cars Engine number. (The UK registrations document on both these cars have the Engine Number listed >> as "not stated") Does any one know on what part of Engine the number is stamped or don't these cars have one, a number that is?!

Of course they have an engine number - in the same place as the engine number on a "British Made" (!) MX5 - a hard to find little shelf on the side of the engine at the rear, near the top of the block, facing upwards. 1600s have it on one side (left or right); 1800s on the other; I forget which..... You usually need to give it a good sanding with emery cloth to make the number visible.
