G14 James Posted August 23, 2014 Author Share Posted August 23, 2014 I got a few extra parts that came with, does anyone know what model motor this is EA71 or 81 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lvsarge Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 I don't know what the first picture is. Doesn't look factory. Looks like a voltage regulator but your stock one is going to be over by the battery and has a circular connector. As for the motor, I'd wager it's an EA71. It should be stamped on the block, iirc either in the front or near the heads. May have to take the manifold off to see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kgrove56 Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 looks like a headlight relay for aftermarket lights Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbosubarubrat Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 That motor is a ea71. It should have ea71 milled on the block between where the block meets the head and the distributor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats the odd part the vehicle has a EA71 in it and its stamped clear as day. This is an extra motor that was thrown in with the deal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moosens Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 Was there once a winch in front? Might be a relay for that reason or ? My 78 wagon has the same relay. It was for a winch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djcommie Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 I've seen a similar relay for the air conditioning system, if it has/had one. A winch relay would likely be a lot larger, closer to an external starter relay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
