F22B1 or F22B3 engine?

[repeated_love]

Couldn't find the engine block stamp here is a pic

[curtis265]

didn't realise it was from an odyssey...

what does it say under the rad hose in that photo?

Odyssey lol

It said under the radiator hose:

HM
F22B
(some numbers) 42145?

Here is a black and white image



Can having this Odyssey engine cause any complications?

In particular I've been shopping around for the following parts:

• manifold intake gasket
• rear exhaust (has a hole in it)
• alternator belt
• sump gasket
• engine mounts
• timing belt/balance shaft belt

Have been asked the question "is this for a F22B3 or F22B1" should I be telling them I have an Odyssey F22B engine?

And here is the funny thing...I took the car in to Honda after they informed me of a safety recall issue with the balance shaft seal, it was after they fixed this that my AC stopped working.

Regarding ur PM question u sent me - no it won't have an issue if you have an odyssey engine, just search for the right engine code. It may vary between years, just make sure u double check with the parts manufacturer

[curtis265]

pretty much the numbers after the f22b

Exi has F22B3 but best to check ur engine bay

It looks like an F22B3.

Lookie here for interesting info, I wonder what his source is:

JDM engines were stamped only as F22B.

Tell them the engine is an F22B RA1 out of an Odyssey (seems like 95-97 era) and they should be able to find it.

[mooshie]

The RA1 that is written on your new swapped engine refers to the chassis code of the Odyssey it came out of.

The Accord and Odyssey shared a common platform and a lot of compatible mechanicals

Thanks guys. The suppliers confirmed gaskets for Odyssey and Accord F22B3 are the same.
