Hunting for my engine code

[Cougar1979]

Hi everyone

I have had the car scanned with vag-com as it was juddering on a accelerating.

Turns out cylinder 2 is mis-firing every time I accelerate to pass anything on the road.

After reading many posts about how to get the cover off, I finally managed it!

I have taken loads of pictures and will pop them in a post a bit later on as they may be benificial to someone else.

What I need is a method of finding out what engine model is in the car, ad it looks like they need different coil packs and spark plugs.

There was no sticker or coding on the engine that I can see.

It's a 1.2, 12 valve htp model.

Only had it a month and would love to have it drive nicely

Thanks in advance for any suggestions

It's will be a three letter code, try looking on a White sticker on your boot floor or inside cover of service book.

Few causes of misfires

Coil pack (most common)

Injector (fairly common)

Valve (oversized valve guides lead to seat damage and leakage)
