How do I know which Volvo Eng. I have?

[tmbarnes77]

I recently purchased a 1984 Bayliner Ciera BL2, the title says the boat is 20' 8" long. The engine is a four cylinder with a 270 outdrive. I cant find anywhere on the engine what model it is so i can order parts or get info for tuning. Can someone please help me with this if possible?

All i need to know is if it is a aq125a, aq131a, aq145a...or did bayliner put a variety of engines in those boats that year and nobody knows. I cant find a thing online and i have searched everywhere.

Call Bayliner toll free at 877-861-6494 and have your Hull ID number handy. They can tell you what engine came with the boat originally.
There is also a brass embossed tag on the port side of the engines either near the fuel pump or around where the starter mounts.
