Where is the engine number located on the JAC Refine?
3 Answers
JAC Refine's engine number is located on the cast iron cylinder block near the fan wheel, below the right exhaust manifold. It is a rectangular plane on the cylinder block with stamped engine numbers. Similar to the car's VIN, the engine number is unique. Different manufacturers may have varying arrangements and contents in the engine number, but it generally includes the engine model, production date, and a randomly assigned serial number when the engine comes off the production line. The JAC Refine is a model that falls between a minivan and an MPV. In terms of body dimensions, the JAC Refine measures 5255mm in length, 1850mm in width, and 1970mm in height.
In my years of driving experience, locating the engine number requires a step-by-step approach. For Jianghuai Refine models, the number is usually engraved on the engine block itself, commonly found on the side of the cylinder block or the metal area at the front. After opening the hood, crouch down near the front of the engine and carefully feel or wipe areas with heavy dust. Some model years may have it hidden deeper, such as near the oil filter or close to the engine mount. I've encountered cases where the number was obscured by grease, so bringing a cloth and flashlight is very helpful to avoid spending too much time searching. The location is fixed, but it varies slightly between different models. Checking the vehicle manual or online forums can also help confirm, as this is crucial for registration or repair convenience.
As a new car owner, I was often confused about where the engine number was, but it's actually quite simple: open the hood and locate the large black iron block—that's the engine body. On the Jianghuai Refine, the number is usually found on the front right side of the engine, either engraved on a nameplate or directly cast on the cylinder block. Squat down and wipe off the dust with your hand to see it clearly. If it's hard to see, try feeling around the rough surfaces near the front of the car, but be careful not to burn your hands for safety. Remember, the exact position may vary slightly depending on the year and design, but the general location remains the same. Finding it will help with maintenance or ownership transfer, saving you hassle later on.
