        Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine The Northstar engine  is designed  to minimize  the need for routine 
maintenance  while incorporating  systems to remind  the driver  when 
service  is  required. 
An oil life  index  indicator monitors  ongoing operating 
conditions and reminds  the driver  when  an oil  change  is  needed. 
A low 
coolant  warning  message  keeps track of the  level  of this  vital  fluid.  Direct 
acting  hydraulic  tappets provide  maintenance  free  zero lash operation  of 
the 
32 valves  from idle to  the 6500 rpm  redline.  The camshafts  are driven 
by  a 
two stage roller  chain  assembly  which  is  designed  to provide  quiet 
maintenance  free operation. Platinum tipped spark  plugs increase  the 
replacement interval  to 
100,OO miles. 
The  four  valves per cylinder  design  provides  more efficient  engine 
breathing, resulting  in higher  power than comparable 
two valve  engines. 
The  induction  system  uses  smooth thermoplastic tubes 
to channel air into 
the  cylinders.  These smooth tubes simulate  the  elaborate port polishing 
methods  used on racing  engines.  The shape and length 
of the tubes 
boosts horsepower  by using  sonic  pressure waves created  by the  motion  of 
the  inlet  valves  to increase  the amount 
of air entering each  cylinder.  Once 
the  intake charge  has entered  the  cylinder, the centrally  located spark 
plug  ensures fast and  efficient burning of the  fuel/air  mixture. 
This engine  is  designed to be  very  durable.  The aluminum  block  has 
cast-in-place iron  cylinder liners for  greater wear  resistance.  High 
strength connecting rods support  the 
free floating  piston  pins  in bronze 
bushings  for superior  high speed performance. 
The fillets of the nodular 
iron crankshaft undergo  a  high pressure  compression  rolling  operation to 
improve  their resistance  to fatigue. 
Quiet  operation  is enhanced  by the  use 
of special  materials and  designs. 
The  front  cover of the  engine  is stamped from laminated steel  which 
damps  out noise.  Special  cam  cover  gasket  seals  isolate va1v.e train 
operation.  The fuel injectors  are placed  inside  the induction  system 
housing  to eliminate  the clicking  noise  which 
is common  to  other fuel 
injected  engines. 
The  Northstar  engine is  designed  to provide  years 
of efficient,  reliable, 
satisfying  operation.
