1B – 2 SOHC ENGINE MECANICAL
DAEWOO M-150 BL2
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
ENGINE TYPE
The engine is 4-cycle, water-cooled, in-line 3 cylinders
with displacement of 796cc (68.5×72.0mm) (2.70×
2.83 in.).
Engine model
(Specifications)F8C Type SOHC /
2 Valve (MPI)
Maximum power (kw/rpm)37.5 / 6,000
Maximum torque (Nm/rpm)68.6 / 4,600
Compression ratio9.3 : 1
D102B001
ENGINE LUBRICATION
The engine lubrication is of the wetsump method to draw
up the oil forced by the oil pump. The oil pump is of a
trochoid type, and mounted on crankshaft at crankshaft
pulley side (a). Oil is drawn up through oil pump pickup
tube (b) and passed through pump (c) to oil filter (d). The
filtered oil flows into two paths in engine block. In one
path (e), oil reaches crankshaft journal bearings. Oil
from crankshaft journal bearings is supplied to connect-
ing rod bearings by means of intersecting passages
drilled in crankshaft, and then injected from a small hole
provided on big end of connecting rod to lubricate piston
(f), rings, and cylinder wall. In another path (g), oil goes
up to cylinder head and lubricates rocker arm (i), valve
(j), camshaft (k), etc. through the oil hole provided on the
rocker arm shaft (h).
D102B002
CYLINDER HEAD AND VALVE TRAIN
The cylinder head is made of cast aluminum alloy for
better strength in hardness with lightweight, and cam-
shaft (k) and rocker arm shaft (h) arranged in-line sup-
port.
D102B003
The combustion chambers are formed into the manifold
combustion chambers with increased squish parts for
better combustion efficiency and its intake and exhaust

parts are installed in the cross flow arrangement. The
rocker arm (i) operates in seesaw motion to close and
open the intake and exhaust valves (j) with camshaft by
turning the rocker arm shaft of each intake and exhaust
part.
ENGINE BLOCK
As the largest part of the engine components. the block
(l) has all the necessary parts attached to outer surface
of it.
On the inside surface of block, there are bore surfaces
by horning, which are cylinders, and on the periphery of
the cylinders, there are the passages to prevent the
over-heated and to lubricate the engine block.
CRANKSHAFT
The crankshaft (m) is to convert the rectilinear motion
into the rotation motion through the connecting rod (n)
which transmits the power generated by combustion.
On the one side of it, oil pump, crankshaft pulley and
timing belt pulley are attached, and oil seal housing and
flywheel are on the other side.
A special steel of high grade cast iron is used for the ma-
terial to stand the bending load and distortion. The mate-
rial of the main bearing (o) is aluminum alloy. The split
thrust bearings (p) are inserted in the journal bearing
part (No.3).
D102B004
CONNECTING ROD
The connecting rods (n) are made of forged steel, and
its section is typed “I” with its big end connected tocrankshaft (m) and its small end to piston pin to transmit
the power.
The big end is detachable, and its upper and lower parts
are fastened by bolting after the metal bearings (q) are
inserted.
PISTON, PISTON RING AND PISTON
PIN
Piston
The piston (r) is of the open skirt type and its crown is
exposed in the combustion chamber to generate power.
Its land and skirt parts are made of coat aluminum alloy
which is light and has excellent heat conductivity in order
to meet its continuous and high speed reciprocation
movement.
Piston Ring
It is composed of two compression rings (s) and one oil
ring (t) and installed between the grooves of the piston
to make the high speed reciprocating movement main-
taining a remarkable air tightness as well as cylinders. It
is a critical parts to affect the compression pressure, oil
consumption, compression, blow by pressure and en-
gine performance.
Piston Pin
The pin (u) is not fixed to the piston or connecting rod
and its both ends are assembled by the circlip (v) in the
full floating type. The pin is used to transmit the power
from the crown part of piston to connecting rod.

TIMING BELT AND PULLEY
The timing belt connects the camshaft timing pulley (w)
and the crankshaft timing pulley (x). The timing belt
coordinates the crankshaft and the camshaft and keeps
them synchronized. The timing belt also turns the cool-
ant pump (y). The timing belt and the pulleys are toothed
so that there is no slippage between them. There is a
tension pulley (z) that maintains the correct timing belt
tension. The timing belt is made of a tough reinforced
rubber similar to that used on the serpentine drive belt.
The timing belt requires no lubrication.
D102B006
ENGINE MOUNT
This is to absorb or reduce the engine vibration and im-
pact from the wheeled road. Engine mount is attached to
the engine–front side, the engine-right side and the en-
gine-rear side and one transaxle mount is attached to
the transaxle side.
