Default About to buy a 2002 engine, need advices

Hi, I'm expecting to pick up this engine this week end.

It's a BP-Z3 from a 2002 NB, said to be low mileage.

The A/C and starter were sold but everything else seems to be there.

I would like to know if there is particuliar things I should double check before buying it.


I was expecting to pop the sparkplug and take a look inside the combustion chamber with a little light.

But I don't know what else I could do without a starter.


I'm not familiar with the variable plenum and the VVT, I actually have a 1990 1.6L



















Thank you, I'm waiting for your replies!
