5. CYLINDER HEAD COVER AND OIL SEPARATOR
The cylinder head cover is made by high strength plastic to reduce the weight. The multi twist type
oil separator improves the oil consumption.

2) Oil Separator
Oil separator separates the particle in blow-by gas to minimize the engine oil consumption and
reduces the inflow oil from intake system into the combustion chamber. The separated oil returns to
oil pan through cylinder head.

Location of Expansion Plugs
1) Cylinder Head
(1) Overview
The cylinder is made by gravity casting and the water jacket is integrated type.
The cylinder oil passage is drilled and sealed by cap.
The Camshaft bearing cap is also made by casting and installed on the cylinder head.

Intake/Exhaust Camshafts
2) Camshaft
(1) Overview
Hollow type camshaft contains cam, octagon cam, HP pump gear and intake/exhaust gears.
Camshaft operates the intake/exhaust valves, vacuum pump and HP pump, and transfers the
engine oil to vacuum pump through the internal oil passage.

1) Chain Drive
(1) Overview
The drive chain is single chain drive system with simple design and variable performance, and it
utilizes the hydraulic tensioner to reduce the wave impact generated by the chain. This chain is light
weight and has high durability through single bush chain. Shoulder bolts are used for better NHV.
7. CHAIN AND GEAR DRIVE SYSTEM
D20DTR engine uses single stage chain drive system. Timing chain drives the exhaust side and
gear drive the intake side. Timing chain is single bush type. Upper chain drives HP pump
connected to intake Camshaft by driving exhaust cam shift sprocke, and lower chain drives oil
pump to lubricate the engine.

8. OIL PAN
The oil pan in D20DTR engine improves the NVH. Especially, the oil draining is much easier than
before.

1) Piston
(1) Overview
Piston assembly contains piston, #1 ring, #2
ring, oil ring, piston pin and snap ring. The
expansion energy from engine is transferred
to the crankshaft through connecting rod to
convert the linear movement to rotating
energy.

(3) Functions
Piston transfers the combustion energy from engine to connecting rod. Especially in the direct
injection engine such as D20DTF, it provides the combustion space and largely effects to the
engine performance and exhaust gas.
Piston ring
#1 ring (Top ring) : Prevents the high pressurized combustion gas from leaking into crank
chamber, and prevents the engine oil getting into combustion chamber.
#2 ring: Scrapes the engine oil on the cylinder bore, and prevents the leaked combustion gas
from #1 ring from leaking into the crank chamber.
Oil ring: Scrapes the engine oil on the cylinder bore.
Piston pin
Connects the piston the connecting rod, and transfers the linear movement of piston to
connecting rod to convert it to rotating energy
Snap pin
Locks the piston pin. ▶

(4) Assembling the piston
Install the piston rings with the "Y" mark on
the ring facing upwards.
Position the end gap of #1 ring at 180˚
away from the end gap of #1 ring.
Position the end gap of oil ring at 180˚
away from the end gap of coil spring, and
position the end gap of oil ring at 90˚ away
from the end gap of #2 ring. 1.
