84 ranger engine size

Hello,
I have a 1984 Ranger XL with a 4cyl engine. I need to do some work on the engine and have run in to a problem.... I can't figure out what engine it has, if it is th 2.0L or the 2.3L. I can't seem to find any referance under the hood on any of the tags or on the drivers side door sill stickers. How might I visually figure this out?
Thanks
Jacob

The 8th digit of the VIN is the engine code. If the engine is original it will tell you the size. Give me the 8th and I will let you know.
