which engine do i have?

Post by Wildman640 »

I just bought a 92 gs and the guy said the motor had been changed out recently. Im not sure if it is still the 1.8 or a bigger one. The only thing it says on top is Mazda 24 valve DOHC. Is there anywhere else I could check to see what size it is?

you need to look on the heads. If it says K8 101 then it's a 1.8L. I don't know what the KL heads say, but I'm sure it says KL XXX. Just look between the intake runners and you'll see them on the rear head.
