The 2.0 litre DOHC (Double OverHead
Camshaft) engine was introduced in August
1989 to replace the 2.0 litre SOHC engine
used previously in the Sierra range. The
engine is of four-cylinder, in-line type.
The crankshaft incorporates five main
bearings. Thrustwashers are fitted to the
centre main bearing in order to control
crankshaft endfloat.
The camshafts are driven by a chain from
the crankshaft, and operate the angled valves
via hydraulic cam followers. One camshaft
operates the inlet valves, and the other
operates the exhaust valves. The operation of
the cam followers is explained in Chapter 2,
Part C, but note that no rollers are fitted and
the base of each cam follower is in direct
contact with the cam profile.
The distributor is driven directly from the
front of the inlet camshaft, and the oil pump is
driven by a chain from the crankshaft. An
electric fuel pump is mounted in the fuel tank.Lubrication is by means of a bi-rotor pump
which draws oil through a strainer located
inside the sump, and forces it through a full-
flow filter into the engine oil galleries, from
where it is distributed to the crankshaft and
camshafts. The big-end bearings are supplied
with oil via internal drillings in the crankshaft.
The undersides of the pistons are supplied
with oil from drillings in the connecting rods.
The hydraulic cam followers are supplied with
oil from passages in the cylinder head. The
camshafts are lubricated by oil from spray
tubes mounted above the camshaft bearing
caps.
A closed crankcase ventilation system is
employed, whereby piston blow-by gases are
drawn from the crankcase, through a breather
pipe into the inlet manifold, where they are
burnt with fresh air/fuel mixture.
Refer to Chapter 1, Section 35.The following operations can be carried out
without removing the engine from the vehicle:
a)Removal of the camshafts.
b)Removal and servicing of the cylinder head
c)Removal of the timing chain and
sprockets.
d)Removal of the oil pump.
e)Removal of the sump.
f)Removal of the pistons and connecting
rods.
g)Removal of the big-end bearings.
h)Removal of the engine mountings
i)Removal of the clutch and flywheel.
j)Removal of the crankshaft front and rear
oil seals.
The following operation can only be carried out
after removing the engine from the vehicle:
a)Removal of the crankshaft and main
bearings.
