Clarence thanks for that wee bit of information. FYI, an '84 4 door could be a 1.8l OHC carburetor boxer or 1.8l FI OHC turbo boxer; pertinent information regarding the item. A '92 4 door could be a Loyale with 1.8l OHC FI boxer or a Legacy with 2.2l OHC 16v EFI boxer or 2.2l OHC 16v turbo boxer; again pertinent information regarding the item...gleaned from a quick look at cars101.com, may be others. Clarence, I simply wanted some details on the items you offered for sale. I am involved with various projects ranging from tractor and aircraft engines to VW's involving early busses and vanagons to fabricated machinery to meet certain requirements. I don't get why you wouldn't offer more info and seem evasive when asked for more. If you don't know the details or want to keep them under hat, then toss me a p-mail and let me know. Doesn't matter to me whether you know your stuff or not, just seems silly to throw out an offer of 2 engines with low mileage information leaving out other information like displacement or fuel management or even model of vehicle. I won't go into responses from other listees but suffice to say this kind of reply tells much. This is your third response to my original question and I still don't know what kind of engines you offer here for sale. Pass.

JB
