Hello everyone!
I have a 2005 year car with recently replaced engine, which was supposed to be new. I saw some members of this forum who doubt that new engines may be found theese days. But I've paid over 5K bucks for this one, the seller sweared it was brand new, from the warehouse, and it had proud N3H3-02-200 title on box with no any "R" suffixes and with no blue tags on engine itself. Though I never saw any documents on it. The engine came to me in a box with mazda stickers but without a single paper.
Now the question is: if this was really a new engine, should I maintain it with parts for series 2 cars, despite my car being 2005? I mean - parts, relevant to engine, particulary - oil filter. I've read here on forum, that one should use only original mazda oil filter with series 2 engines since it's connected to oil pressure being different on theese engines. Oil pump, being a part of engine, was obviously replaced.
On the other hand, engine may be series 1 even if seller did not intentionally fool me. Manufacturer must supply customers with maintenance parts many years since car production ending.
Is there any way to finally establish what engine have I got, for example from it's appearence? All I can see on the engine is number "561414".
I understand, the question is difficult, but I could make some photo if someone would tell me what to shoot. After all, now I'm just intrested in one simple thing: what oil filter to install. Much thanks for any tips and your attention!
