Welcome aboard!
You might need to give us more details, there isn't a 2l diesel used on the Mazda Bongo Friendee! Either your looking for a different Bongo & engine or your mistaken about the engine capacity.

Also, the Bongo Friendee was not manufactured until 1995. So I suspect thie vehicle in question is a Bongo Brawny or Bongo Van. We don't have any info about these vehicles. However, it might share the engine with another Mazda, search on Wikipedia as there is a good section about Mazda engines.

There are a whole series of Mazda RF engines see here
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mazda_die ... #RF_series none of these are used in the Mazda Bongo Friendee or Ford Freda range of vehicles.

None of our vehicles use your type of engine! There are lots of different Bongo's each with several types of engine, you need to find a manual which covers the engine type you have, we don't have one.
