Zetec engine identification
 
Last week I picked up a zetec engine from a 2001 focus (supposedly 2.0)
I didn't think of looking on the side of the block to confirm as the car that its from comes up as a 2.0 when searching for parts etc with the reg.

I have just looked at the side of the block for the engine number which I can't seem to find and the large number on the side is 18 so i'm guessing it must be a 1.8.

I can't quite understand this, I don't mind if it is a 1.8 but why would this happen???
Mabey the owner trashed the 2.0 engine and as 1.8's were cheaper they swapped for 1.8???
I have the ecu and most of the loom. Would it have been a straight swap to change the engine and ecu?

Any ideas?

There's a chance it's the original ECU. Since it meters off the MAF, it could have adjusted sufficiently for the different engine displacement. If you're swapping it, keep in mind you'll need to swap the immobilizer bits, too.
There's a four letter code on the ECU, like DESK here:

The ecu code is TEEM but can't find much info.

Mondeo Zetecs have the "2.0" behind the exh manifold,look at Zetec inside website for more info and there are many zetec sites for info.

Ford parts Dunston are a good source of info.

Engine code is also good source of info.

Stick a Pinto in pre IVA and change it after .

did you see the engine being removed from the car?

TT

No I didn't actually see it being removed but contacted the guy I got it from but he was just breaking the car so wouldn't know if it had been swapped.
It must be 1.8 as it has the large stamp on side.

Will try clean up where the engine number should be and get some pictures

Its definatly a bit of a mix up.
Sicker on side says 2.0

Block 1.8

And no engine number


Number on head

Other numbers on the block if they mean anything.

Well after a bit of googling, the ECU is for a 2.0 according to http://www.atpelectronics.co.uk/

So I have:
1.8 Block
2.0 ECU
Head unsure. Does anyone know if there is a way of telling between the 1.8 and 2.0?

I don't like the idea of running a 1.8 on a 2.0 map (can't be good) so I could either swap the ECU to a 1.8. (auto data seems to show all pins are the same) or get the 2.0 ECU remapped.

Nothing is ever easy...

You need a engine number to apply for IVA test, from the engine number they can determine the exact spec of the engine e.g maximum rpm for the noise test, emissions etc and registering with DVLA

My zetec engine numbers were really hard to read on the block, my 2.0l started with EDDG it's printed with lots of little tiny dots, I had to take a photo in bright light and zoom in on the computer to read the numbers, couldn't do it by eye
