WSG-1068 GENERAL INFORMATION
Engine Identification
Because of such a wide range of industrial engines – manufactured both in the U.S. and overseas – it is important that
you have as complete identification of the engine as possible in order to provide the correct replacement parts. New
engines being shipped include a standard parts listing describing the parts which does not tell the owner the part number.
It remains a distributor function to identify the part number. The key to identifying the engine is the identification decal
mounted on the engine rocker cover. That decal provides not only the engine serial number, but also the exact model or
type, options and S.O. (Special Order). The combination of that data permits you to isolate the precise engine, build level
and customer so you can determine the correct replacement parts.
Engine Identification Decal
An identification Decal is affixed to the valve cover of the engine. The decal contains the engine serial number which
identifies this unit from all others. Use all numbers when seeking information or ordering replacement parts for this engine.
For a handy reference, keep this information recorded in a separate location.
