thats not the engine number, thats the engine type/model.

engine number is 6 digits as said, but AFAIK means sweet fugg all doesnt tell you anything.

Yeah according to my stuff it should be 2.2L FWD, but by 1997 the entire range was full time 4wd wasn't it?

With that VIN it should be a White LX sedan 2.2L FWD.
