Hi, just trying to ID an ‘82 City engine using Guesswork’s excellent decoder - 011833199H997P. Do I input the first zero ? If I do, it has a 3.4 diff, if I don’t , it’s a 2.9.
Any ideas ? Thanks

That engine number is all messed up.

Yeah, what Nick says - it should be started with 99

looks more a Reading phone number, as they start 0118 !

Hi chaps, sorry , I’ve wasted your time.. I took the number off the V5 as the car is in a workshop. Just been to check and the vin is the right way round with the numbers at the end, and there’s no zero at the start of the number . Doh.. I’ll delete this but thanks anyway

comes up as a 3.65:1 when I looked 

 

and swapped in from a metro at some point ?

You’ve put 977 not 997

[stuart bowes]

oh yeah sorry woops

 

just as a correction then (I know it's not required I just don't like errors..)

 

 

don't know why it isn't supplying fuelling info though, mine has the same cc, similar age ('88) and same compression by the looks of it and that's as follows

 

 

whether that's useful as a point of refence or not I couldn't say
