Ok, I have a vague suspicion that the "new" (new-used) engine that was put into my car might not have actually been put in. In other words, I suspect that the engine in my Bug in not "new" but that it is the same engine that the mechanic told me I blew up.
(Hit a pot hole while lost, tore open the oil pan and supposedly fried the engine in the span of 2.5 miles.)
What I've been trying to figure out is how to tell if it's the same engine or not. I know there is a code on the engine block but that doesn't mean anything to me since I don't know what the original code was. In fact I have no idea if there is any way to find out what it was.
Shouldn't there be a way to find out what engine number was put into my car when if first rolled off the assembly line? :1zhelp:
Thanks. :)
