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.

Dismantling
1Refer to Chapter 2, PartA, Section 18,
paragraphs 1 to 8 inclusive.
2A suitable selection of splined and Torx
sockets will be required to remove many of
the bolts when dismantling the engine.
3Before dismantling the main engine
components, the following externally-
mounted ancillary components can be
removed, with reference to the relevant
Chapters of this Manual and the relevant
Sections of this Chapter, where applicable.
Inlet manifold (and carburettor, if applicable)
Exhaust manifold
Alternator.
Coolant pump, and thermostat
Alternator/coolant pump drivebelt tensioner
Distributor cap, HT leads and spark plugs
Oil pressure warning lamp switch
Crankshaft speed/position sensor
Oil filter
Dipstick
Engine mounting brackets (if not already done)
Crankcase ventilation pipe and hoses
Clutch
Alternator mounting bracket.
Air conditioning compressor mounting
bracket (where applicable).
Engine lifting brackets.
Examination and renovation
4Refer to Chapter 2, PartA, Section 18, but
note that the connecting rod bolts should be
renewed on reassembly, and when renewing
the cylinder head bolts, the latest type bolts
with hexagonal heads should always be used.
Reassembly
5Proceed as described in Chapter 2, PartA,
Section 18, noting the following:
6If they have been removed, new cylinder
head bolts (both M11 and M8, of the latest
type with hexagonal heads), flywheel bolts,
and connecting rod bolts must be used.
Note: Refer to the warning at the beginning of
Section 5 before proceeding. A suitable puller
will be required to remove the crankshaft pulley.
A new crankshaft pulley bolt, a new timing chain
tensioner plunger assembly, new upper and
lower timing chain cover gaskets, and a new
camshaft cover gasket and reinforcing sleeve
sealing rings, must be used on refitting.
Removal
1If the engine is in the car, carry out the
following operations:
a)Disconnect the battery negative lead.
b)To improve access, remove the radiator. It
will be difficult to remove the crankshaft
pulley with the radiator in place.c)On carburettor models, remove the air
cleaner.
d)On fuel injection models, remove the air
inlet hose, plenum chamber, and air
cleaner lid as an assembly.
e)Disconnect the breather hose from the
camshaft cover.
f)Remove the distributor cap and HT leads,
and the rotor arm and housing.
2Proceed as described in paragraphs 2 to 11
inclusive of Section 18 (see illustration).
3Remove the alternator drivebelt.
4Slacken the crankshaft pulley bolt. Prevent
the crankshaft from turning by engaging top
gear (manual gearbox only) and having an
assistant press the brake pedal hard, or by
removing the starter motor and jamming the
ring gear teeth with a lever.
5Unscrew the bolt part-way, and use a puller
to remove the crankshaft pulley. The legs ofthe puller must be suitably shaped to enable
them to rest on the metal surfaces of the
pulley. Do not use a puller on the rubber
surface of the pulley (see illustrations).
