Wanted: pre 1993 1800 zetec, i will pick up from pretty much anywhere thanks

trying to get around fitting a CAT r we?

Yep !!!

I bought one recently from an Orion Si, it has no engine number. It's not been ground off or messed with, it's a virgin surface, it's never had one. The only marking is an RQ not even RQA or RQB.

I've since read that in the early days of Zetecs, recon engine's came from Ford without a number.

It makes no difference to us as SVA was years ago, but I wouldn't like to turn up for IVA with an engine with no number.

If you buy one, make sure it has an engine number

I thought it was pre 95 for the emmisions?? The inspector will struggle to see the number I gave him mine and also a sheet confirming date of build I think there is a site linked on here for the zetechttp://www.zetec-cat.co.uk/ I tink the sheet for age related engines is on the site

As far as I`m aware it`s pre july `92 for a manufacturer`s vehicle, but if there is no exact match in the testing manual for your vehicle then it becomes pre aug `95 that is the cut off date, hence for kits it is the `95 date used? Have a look in the flow charts in the IVA manual, it`s available to download online thru DVLA, Cheers

Yes, for kit's it's effectivly, manufactured pre 1st Aug' '95.

This should be pre 94 as the XR2i's were stopped then I believe
