* Engine Variations: There were various engine models and manufacturing years for Geo Metros. The location of the serial number could vary depending on the specific engine type.
* Manufacturer: Geo vehicles were rebranded Suzuki vehicles. The engine serial number location might differ from what you'd find on a standard Suzuki engine.
How to Find the Serial Number:
1. Consult your owner's manual: It's the best starting point. Check the section on engine information or maintenance.
2. Check the engine block: Look for a raised casting or a tag attached to the engine block, typically around the cylinder head area or near the front of the engine.
3. Look at the engine's paperwork: If you have any previous maintenance records, service manuals, or purchase documentation, it may include the engine serial number.
4. Contact a dealer or mechanic: A Geo/Suzuki dealership or a qualified mechanic who specializes in these vehicles might be able to tell you the exact location based on your specific engine model and year.
Important Note: Be cautious when working around the engine. It gets hot, and there are moving parts. Always use safety precautions.
