DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
ENGINE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER
The engine identification number is located on the
rear of the cylinder block just below the cylinder
head (Fig. 1).
ENGINE LUBRICATION
System is a full flow filtration, pressure feed type.
The oil pump is mounted behind the timing belt
cover. The pump inner rotor is driven by the crank-
shaft. The engine oil pan contains a baffle plate to
control oil level fluctuation during engine operation.
ENGINE COMPONENTS
BLOCK:The cylinder block is a light weight
design created by reducing thickness in many parts
and a short 10 mm (3/8 in.) block skirt. High rigidity
is provided with ribs cast in the outer wall, a full
length water jacket, and a mono-block or beam type,
main bearing cap. This single unit four bearing cap
is designed to control vibration of the cylinder block
partition walls.
CRANKSHAFT:A six throw, five weight crank-
shaft is supported by four main bearings with num-
ber three being the thrust bearing. The six separate
connecting rod throws pins reduce torque fluctua-tions while a torsional vibration damper is used to
control torsion caused vibration of the crankshaft.
Rubber lipped seals are used at front and rear. The
