Best to you

no engine stated,
my guess v6, as ONLY the V6 had one,
and not all V6 have it.
so, NO V6 size stated or the
8th digit of your VIN code stated, (engine code)
so no answers possible.
there are at least 4 V6 engines generations used.
the last engine is the most comlexe with VVT (3.5L)
it has MAF, and is between the TB and the air cleaner.
on all cars with a MAF, some are in the TB.
facts all
post a vin
i post photos,
sorry not posting them all on both engines 2004

TB = Throttle body, that magic place that sucks huge air.

As far as I know there was only one V6 engine offered on that vehicle in 1983 and that was a 2.8 liter V6. (There were a range of 4 cyl engines offered though).

A decode of the VIN on the vehicle should tell you which engine was fitted in the vehicle when new. (In a vehicle that old the original engine could have been replaced with something different).

The answer to that question is TOTALLY different depending on which engine your Gran Prix is equipped with. The choices are:

> V6-3.8L VIN 2
> V8-5.3L VIN C
> V6-3.8L SC VIN 4

This is really must know information - especially if you are asking somebody for help with your engine, engine accessories, or engine control systems.

It depends on the engine size.
For an InLine 4 Cylinder-122 2.0L CNG DOHC VIN Z SFI :$178.42
For an InLine 4 Cylinder-122 2.0L DOHC VIN 3 SFI : $178.42
For a V6-153 2.5L DOHC VIN L SFI : $152.93
For a V6-153 2.5L VIN G (24 Valve) SFI : $152.93

Hope this was helpful.

the vin x had less horsepower than the vin w. I think the vin x only came on the pickups. The w came in the blazers and was the full size truck v-6 option.

There are four different engines that were installed in 2002 E350's. your question is very hard to answer without knowing which one you have.
The 8th digit in your VIN will identify exactly which engine you have.

V6-4.2L VIN code (2)
V8-4.6L SOHC VIN code (W)
V8-5.4L CNG VIN code (M)
V8-5.4L SOHC VIN code (L)

You have the 3.0 push rod engine over head valve,not cam,,,the U in the vin,tells me this,if this was helpful,please let us know,and please rate,thank you.

2000 Pontiac Grand AM 3.4 liter V-6 VIN "E"



Hope helps (remember rated this).

I dont think so, the 8th digit is the engine code and they are different. I'm glad you put the VIN numbers up, good thinking ; )
