Which engine type is correct?

[kingmustard]

On this page, it lists the following possibilities:

• Gas
• H4 Gas
• L1 Gas

This is the information I could gather on my partner's Picanto:

• Kia Picanto 2012 1.25L
• Hyundai Kappa II engine
• It's the existing 1.25L 4-cylinder Kappa engine with added VTVT
• 86 hp (64 kW; 87 PS) at 6,000 rpm
• 90 lb·ft (122 N·m) of torque at 4,000 rpm
• 4-speed automatic

Here is more model information: http://www.parkers.co.uk/kia/picanto...-5d-auto/specs

How do I know which of the engine types it is?

Gas refers to petrol. H means a hybrid, so either of the other two will do. L tells you it is inline, so I would probably opt for that.

Thank you

The car selector certainly needs improving.

The H is actually for horizontal; a boxter or flat engine in the likes of Subaru and Porsche.

The number is suppose to reference the number of cylinders.

Right enough. I searched for the earlier post and saw EMY92's reply but read your quote instead of EMY92's correction. Numpty.
