Engine information
This page contains information I accumulated over a period of time on the
engine in my Speedster. Please bear in mind that this information is not
necessarily correct.
Generic
The 2.2L in the Speedster is the first engine from the new Ecotec line that
General Motors introduced. The engine was designed together with Lotus. The
basic architecture is known as code L850. At this moment there are 3 engines
based on this architecture:
This engines are mainly used in the VS, but you also see them in europe.
Especially the 2.2L is used by Opel and is also used by Alfa in new models
(2.2 JTS).
The engine is known by different names. In the US the engine is known as the L61, in europe as the Z22SE (explination of the abreviation).

Engine management
The engine management on the Z22SE is a Delco GMPT-E15 (in Canada Delco GMPT-E16). GMTP stands for General Motors Power Train and E15/E16 probably is an internal number.
There seems to be very little information on this enigine managment system.
