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
