Can anyone tell me what this plug is for with the 3 wires attached to it that is part of the engine loom?
Also has anyone got a picture of where the engine numbers are on the 1.6 as i cannot find them on mine.

Does the plug go inside the car, can't make it out from the picture?
I know where the engine number is on my XE not sure about the 1600 though...

The car the engine came from did not have aircon mate.
Iv looked where i think you said to look for the numbers but looks like there is no numbers there.
I will get a picture later of where i looked.
Or if anyone else has a pic of where the numbers are located would be great.

Get some stamps and put your own number on if it doesn't have one
I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.
