Hoping someone can help here and fast. Long story short I'm an Englishman working in Norway as a mechanic in a large concrete works.
I have a linde H45D with a broken crankshaft so I'm trying to source another engine to drop in. I understand from what I've read and learnt that the engine is a standard 1.9 engine from a vw/Audi.
But which model... We have a local scrap yard here that would potentially be able to supply us with an engine and they've told us we just need to give them the engine code.
I've search low and high and can't find anything on the block apart from there serial numbers

038103373E or 038AN80HBH V1600

Now this last number has made me
Wonder is it actually a 1.9... Or a 1.6. But I can't believe it is and I'm hoping someone on here can say the model engine I have in our truck so we can get it back out into use as soon as possible.

I've also been told 3 engine codes which possibly may be our engine. Maybe you can confirm this?
AHF 81kw
ALH 66kw
AGR 66kw

But this has been given to me so not my information and I'm not sure whether it's correct or not.

Thanks in advance and look forward to your replies.

Fact of the week
The two internal cavities in our nose called nostrils function as separate organs. Each nostril has its own set of turbinates and olfactory receptors. The two independent organs work together through a mechanism called the nasal cycle, where one nostril is dominant for air intake while the other rests and is better at detecting scents.
