so the 94 mirage I have has a salvage title.. the tag on the hood says 1.5.. but ive read the 94 es came with the 1.8 auto.. when I search the vin I only get 1 result and its very vague.. it says

engine 2 Li I4.. I know the I4 is inline 4.. but not sure how to determine if the 2 Li means 1.5 or 1.8? thanks

Look at the silver plate on the firewall, it'll either read 4G15 (1.5L) or 4G93 (1.8L).

If there is a VIN on the engine block you can try running that as well.

Also in some rare cases the trim means nothing. I've seen LS cars at the yard with 1.5's in them.
