| Post subject: | Engine Numbers on a Clubman |
Hey guys, I'm sure I saw a thread around here somewhere on how to read engine numbers, but I can't find it for the life of me! I just had a quick question about the engine number of a Clubman I just picked up. The number is: 99H889AJH002351. So far I can work out: 99 = 998cc H = Transverse But I can't work out the rest of it! I've tried: http://www.minimania.com/ArticleV.cfm?DisplayID=1601 But the 889 doesn't correlate to anything that list there. I was wondering if someone could shed some light on what the remaining letter/numbers mean, and if I can decipher the exact model and year of the car from these numbers. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Cheers, Ben |

Morris1100 will no doubt be able to explain a lot of it later , be careful trying to sort Aussie numbers out using minimania , a lot of their stuff doesnt' relate to Australian production ... |

It's just a late Oz 998 Clubby motor with emission controls, air pump etc, probably 1977-1978. These were UK built motors. There is little documentation available, BL took their marbles and went home to UK in 1978, slashing and burning as they went. |

ok awesome thanks. Any idea the exact model of cluby? It appears to be standard to me, but I'm probably wrong! |

Give us the body prefix, it's on the compliance plate and stamped into the radiator shroud. |

You'll get more info about the car from the chassis numbers than the engine number. |

So it's a common Leyland Mini then, not a Leyland Mini S. S = more poSh.

interesting, i have a 1975 Mini S, ill take a photo of the compliance plate, i have the original receipt for the car, instructions, stereo instructions, etc. Had to use a different block, the one that came with the car was beyond use. How rare is a Mini S, how many were made etc |

I have never got all the engine code info and I am missing a lot of details about the engines. 99 = 998 H = Transverse 889 = the spec code (this is the bit I am missing, this describes the full buld spec for the engine) AJ = Emissions/Crankcase breather spec. (but I don't know what exact spec) H = High Compression 002351 = engine serial number. 021 = Leyland Mini (cheap Mini) D = Compliance code = Manual 2S = 2 door saloon. (=Mini) 1 = trim level 1 (= real cheap Mini) M = 4 speed floor change manual gearbox 09 = 998cc motor 20713 = car serial number. awesome, thanks for the info!
