Not sure

[2gendsm98]

So, I dont know if I am poting this in the right spot. I just signed up for this site today, an not to sure how to use it yet. Ill just ask and maybe u can tell me where to go from here. I just bought a 1998 Eclipse GS-T Spyder for super cheap. I have never owned this kinda car before all mine where Chevy v-8, I thought i would give it a try. My question is the car is a 98, but I think the engine might be out of a 1st generation car. Is there anyway to tell by looking at it?? There is a number oon the block (6L3971) if that helps. Another thing, the coils are all in a line?? I thought the later ones are in a 1-4 pack?? any help would be great!! then ill ask the other guestions. First things first I need to findout what i got here.. Thanks for ## time.

VFAQ Site - Visual Frequently Answered Questions

That site will be your best friend. Not sure on the block number you supplied. The easiest way is to look at the oil pan to tell whether you have a 6bolt or 7bolt.

Post up some pictures

If its on the back of the head near the cam gears there is not one there, but, there is a pig tail on the harness that is right in that area. dond know is that is anything. There is a bunch of pigtails that aint hooked up to anything?? what do i need to take pis of?? what part of the motor do you need to see?? Ill take as many as i can.
