BMC 1500 – Location of Engine Number

[Up-Side-Down]

As above: can anyone tell me where to find it please?

On old 1.5D it was a plate rivetted on the top of the block on the pump side but after all this time it is highly likely to have gone missing.

Why do you need the number?

To get a new water pump

But maybe Calcutt won't need any more detail?

Several on the notable auction site.  There is a common one and a few engines with another version. That is a rare one.

A motor factors will be able to match it to yours and at a vastly lower price than a chandlers.

Many thanks for this.

When ours failed (Seals went and it started leaking through the tell-tale) we took it off and measured the impeller size and the shaft length and then phoned Calcutt as the local motor factor in Market Drayton isn't open any more.

Sounds like a plan!
