2000 SUZUKI SWIFT check engine

6A-20 ENGINE MECHANICAL (G10, 1-CAM 6-VALVES ENGINE)
CAUTION:

Don’t turn camshaft or start engine (i.e., valves should not be operated) for about half an hour after
reinstalling hydraulic valve lash adjusters and camshaft. As it takes time for valves to settle in place,
operating engine within half an hour after their installation may cause interference to occur between
valves and piston.

If air is trapped in valve lash adjuster, valve may make tapping sound when engine is operated after
valve lash adjuster is installed. In such a case, run engine for about half an hour at about 2,000 – 3,000
r / min., and then air will be purged and tapping sound will cease. Should tapping should not cease,
it is possible that valve lash adjuster is defective. Replace it if defective.
If defective adjuster can’t be located by hearing among 6 of them, check as follows.
1) Stop engine and remove cylinder head cover.
2) Push adjuster downward by hand (with less than 15 kg or 33 lbs force) when cam crest is not on
adjuster to be checked and check if clearance exists between cam and adjuster. If it does, adjuster
is defective and needs replacement.
VALVE LASH ADJUSTER NOISE DIAGNOSIS
In case of the followings, valve lash adjuster noise may be caused by air trapped into valve lash adjusters.

Vehicle is left for 24 hours or more.

Engine oil is changed.

Hydraulic lash adjuster is replaced or reinstalled.

Engine is overhauled.
If noise from valve lash adjusters is suspected, perform the following checks.
1) Check engine oil for the followings.

Oil level in oil pan
If oil level is low, add oil up to Full level hole on oil level gauge.

Oil quality
If oil is discolored, or deteriorated, change it.
For particular oil to be used, refer to Section 0B.

Oil leaks
If leak is found, repair it.

Oil pressure (refer to Oil Pressure Check in this section)
If defective pressure is found, repair it.
2) Run engine for about half an hour at about 2,000 to 3,000 r / min., and then air will be purge and tapping sound
will cease.
3) Should tapping sound not cease, it is possible that hydraulic valve lash adjuster is defective.
Replace it if defective.
If defective adjuster can’t be located by hearing among 16 of them, check as follows.
a) Stop engine and remove cylinder head cover.
b) Push adjuster downward by hand (with less than 20 kg or 44 lbs. Force) when cam crest is not on adjuster
to be check if clearance exists between cam and adjuster.
If it does, adjuster is defective and needs replacement.

VALVES AND CYLINDER HEAD
INSPECTION
Valve Guides
Using a micrometer and bore gauge, take diameter readings on
valve stems and guides to check stem-to-guide clearance.
Be sure to take reading at more than one place along the length of
each stem and guide.
If clearance exceeds limit, replace valve and valve guide.

Valve Springs

Referring to data given below, check to be sure that each spring
is in sound condition, free of any evidence of breakage or weak-
ening. Remember, weakened valve springs can cause chatter,
not to mention possibility of reducing power output due to gas
leakage caused by decreased seating pressure.

INSTALLATION
NOTE:

All parts to be installed must be perfectly clean.

Be sure to oil crankshaft journals, journal bearings, thrust
bearings, crankpins, connecting rod bearings, pistons, pis-
ton rings and cylinder bores.

Journal bearings, bearing caps, connecting rods, rod bear-
ings, rod bearing caps, pistons and piston rings are in com-
bination sets. Do not disturb combination and try to see that
each part goes back to where it came from, when installing.
1) Fit main bearings to cylinder block (1).
Among two halves of main bearing, one halt has oil groove (3).
Install this half with oil groove to cylinder block, and another half
without oil groove to bearing cap.
Make sure that two halves are painted in the same color.
2) Fit thrust bearings (1) to cylinder block between No.2 and No.3
cylinders. Face oil groove (2) sides to crank webs.
3) Put crankshaft on cylinder block.
4) Fit bearing caps sequentially in ascending order, 1, 2, 3 and 4,
starting from pulley side. Be sure to point arrow mark (2) (on
each cap) to crankshaft pulley side (1).
Gradual and uniform tightening is important for bearing cap
bolts. Make sure that four caps become tight equally and pro-
gressively till specified torque is attained.
Tightening Torque
(a): 53 N
.m (5.3 kg-m, 38.5 lb-ft)
NOTE:
After tightening cap bolts, check to be sure that crankshaft
rotates smoothly when turned by hand.

ENGINE MECHANICAL (G10, 1-CAM 6-VALVES ENGINE) 6A-29
5) Install oil seal housing and its gasket.
Install new gasket. Do not reuse gasket removed in disassem-
bly. Oil lip portion of oil seal before installing. Tighten housing
bolts to specification.
After installing oil seal housing, gasket edges might bulge out;
if so, cut them off to make them flush with cylinder block and
oil seal housing.
Tightening Torque
(b): 12 N
.m (1.2 kg-m, 9.0 lb-ft)
6) Install oil pump.
Refer to item “Oil pump” for installation of oil pump.
7) Install flywheel (M / T model) or drive plate (A / T model).
Using special tool, lock flywheel and torque its bolts (1) to spec-
ification.
Special Tool
(A): 09924-17810
Tightening Torque
(c): 78 N
.m (7.8 kg-m, 56.5 lb-ft)
8) Install pistons and connecting rods as previously outlined.
9) Install oil pump strainer and oil pan.
10) Install cylinder head assembly to cylinder block (1).
Before installing cylinder head assembly to cylinder block,
install check valve (2) into oil gallery in cylinder block, directing
slit of valve toward top of cylinder block.
NOTE:
Tighten cylinder head bolts to specified torque as pre-
viously outlined.
Whenever installing cylinder head to new cylinder block,
use following procedure to tighten cylinder head bolts.

Tighten cylinder head bolts to specified torque as pre-
viously outlined and loosen them once till tightening
torque becomes “zero”. And then torque them to specifi-
cation again.
11) Install crankshaft timing belt pulley, timing belt, crankshaft
pulley, water pump pulley, etc., as previously outlined.
12) Install clutch to flywheel (M / T model).

WARNING:
For vehicles equipped with Supplement Restraint (Air Bag) System:

Service on and around the air bag system components or wiring must be performed only by an autho-
rized SUZUKI dealer. Refer to “Air Bag System Components and Wiring Location View” under “Gener-
al Description” in air bag system section in order to confirm whether you are performing service on
or near the air bag system components or wiring. Please observe all WARNINGS and “Service Precau-
tions” under “On-Vehicle Service” in air bag system section before performing service on or around
the air bag system components or wiring. Failure to follow WARNINGS could result in unintentional
activation of the system or could render the system inoperative. Either or these two conditions may
result in severe injury.

Technical service work must be started at least 90 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to the
“LOCK” position and the negative cable is disconnected from the battery. Otherwise, the system may
be activated by reserve energy in the Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM).

COMPRESSION CHECK
Check compression pressure on all four cylinders as follows:
1) Warm up engine.
2) Stop engine after warming up.
NOTE:
After warming up engine, place transmission gear shift le-
ver in “Neutral” (shift selector lever to “P” range for A / T
model), and set parking brake and block drive wheels.
3) Remove ignition coil assemblies (1) and all spark plugs (2) refer-
ring to Section 6F.
WARNING:
Failure in disconnecting couplers from ignition coil as-
semblies can cause spark to occur in engine room possi-
bly resulting in a dangerous explosion.
4) Disconnect fuel injector wire harness at couplers (2).
5) Install special tools (Compression gauge) into spark plug hole.
