Good morning and welcome. The data you want is Here (http://www.fordscorpio.co.uk/vin.htm). Is your car a Scorpio like the one in the picture at the top of the page or the earlier Granada model?. :)

All the wiring diagrams are available in the " how to do things" Section

well the engine is in my Cortina mk3 and it was in a Vauxhall victor before hand and I didn't get a wiring diagram but most is plug and play just the coil was hanging so the wires fell off in the mess..
it was an auto as its had the throttle sensor removed

Gents,

I hate to say this, but the title of this thread - ENGINE DATING - makes it sound like something else altogether :P :P ;D

My juvenile sense of humor gets the better of me sometimes ::)

Ash, have you got a piccy of the engine mate? That might help people help you if they know exactly what engine it is.

I'm not a V6 expert but I'm guessing it's a Mk3 Granny 2.9 12v too.
