How can you find out if your 2002 Pontiac sunfire sfs model 4-cylinder 2door has an echotek engine?

The 2002 Pontiac Sunfire didn't use engines branded "Echotek." There's no such engine designation associated with General Motors or Pontiac vehicles of that era. The Sunfire used either a GM Ecotec engine (likely what you're thinking of) or a different GM engine family.

To find out what engine *is* in your 2002 Pontiac Sunfire, check one of these locations:

* Your vehicle's title or registration: It should list the engine displacement (e.g., 2.2L).

* The engine block itself: The engine code is usually stamped on a visible part of the engine block. You'll need to look carefully; it might be near the oil filter or on the top of the engine. A photo of the engine code will help someone identify the precise engine.

* The vehicle identification number (VIN): You can use the VIN to decode the engine through various online VIN decoders or by contacting a GM dealership. The VIN is usually located on the dashboard, visible through the windshield.

* Your owner's manual: If you still have it, the owner's manual will specify the engine type and size.

If you find an engine code, posting it here will allow others to help identify the specific engine in your car.
