when talking about the 2.3 and 2.5 Lima engines, how is Lima pronounced?
is it lie-muh like the bean or lee-muh? i know they're named for the city in ohio where they were built, just don't know the correct way to say it.
 
lima bean. thats how you pronounce the name of the city in ohio.... i had never realized that that is why they are named a lima engine.

It's also why Ford has Cologne (Germany), Cleveland (Ohio), and Windsor (Ontario) engines.

The 2.9L/4.0L isn't called "Cologne" because they smell good (trust me, they don't).
