ENGINE TYPE?

Post by Justin » 08 Feb 2013 06:13 pm

What is the engine type of my 1.4 1988 Volvo 340DL? Is it a B14.3E, B14.4E, B14.40, B14.4S?
1988 340 1.4 DL

(I suffer with O.C.D. which makes me obsessed with fine detail)

(Diagrams or photos are far more helpful to me when it comes to cars)

I would think that it is a B14.4E but to make sure you will need to have a look at the riveted plate which is on the side of the engine, above the oil filter.

As it is possible that a previous owner had the engine changed.

Thanks, I checked it earlier and it is indeed a B14.4E

I wonder what the E stands for?

By the way your diagram is brilliant...
