The 4J series engine has a full flow type lubricating system.
Lubricating oil is pumped from the oil pump to the cylinder body oil gallery through the oil cooler and the oil filter. It is
then delivered to the vital parts of the engine from the cylinder body oil gallery.
Oiling jets installed on the cylinder body spray engine oil to the piston backside faces to achieve maximum piston
cooling effect.

6B – 8 ENGINE COOLING
Draining and Refilling Cooling System
Before draining the cooling system, inspect the system and
perform any necessary service to ensure that it is clean, does
not leak and is in proper working order. The engine coolan
t
(EC) level should be between the “MIN" and “MAX" lines o
f
reserve tank when the engine is cold. If low, check for leakage
and add EC up to the “MAX" line.
There should not be any excessive deposit of rust or scales
around the radiator cap or radiator filler hole, and the EC
should also be free from oil.
Replace the EC if excessively dirty.


P1010064
1. Completely drain the cooling system by opening the drain
plug at the bottom of the radiator.

2. Remove the radiator cap.
WARNING: To avoid the danger of being burned, do not
remove the cap while the engine and radiator are still hot.
Scalding fluid and steam can be blown out unde
r
pressure.
3. Disconnect all hoses from the EC reserve tank.
Scrub and clean the inside of the reserve tank with soap and water. Flush it well with clean water, then drain it.
Install the reserve tank and hoses.
4. Refill the cooling system with the EC using a solution that is at least 50 percent antifreeze.

Procedure for filling with coolant (in case of full change)
 Make sure that the engine is cool.
 Open radiator cap pour coolant up to filler neck.
 Pour coolant into reservoir tank up to “MAX" line.
 Tighten radiator cap and start the engine. After idling for 2
to 3 minutes, stop the engine and reopen radiator cap. If the
water level is lower, replenish.
WARNING: When the coolant is heated to a high
temperature, be sure not to loosen or remove the radiato
r
cap. Otherwise you might get scalded by not vapor or
boiling water. To open the radiator cap, put a piece of
thick cloth on the cap and loosen the cap slowly to reduce
the pressure when the coolant has become cooler.

The pump camshaft speed sensor signal is utilized for
the following purposes.
To determine the momentary angular position of the
cam ring.
To calculate the actual speed of the fuel injection pump.
To determine the actual timing plunger position.
The pump camshaft sensor signal has a tooth gap, and
the crankshaft position (CKP) sensor on the flywheel
housing is used as a reference signal of engine top
dead center (TDC) for the start timing of fuel delivery or
injection which is to be set.High Pressure Solenoid Valve
Fuel injection quantity control is performed from the
beginning of pressure delivery at the beginning of cam
lift until the high pressure solenoid valve opens at the
end of pressure delivery.
This interval is called the pressure delivery interval.
Accordingly, the interval that the high pressure solenoid
valve is closed determines the fuel injection quantity
(high pressure fuel supply ends when the high pressure
solenoid valve opens).

6E–74 4JA1/4JH1 ENGINE DRIVEABILITY AND EMISSIONS
When current from the pump control unit (PSG) flows to
the high pressure solenoid valve coil, the magnet
anchor (a movable iron core) pushes the valve needle,
toward the valve seat.
When the valve seat is completely closed by the valve
needle, the way, of the fuel in the high pressure
passage to the low pressure circuit is closed.
The pressure of the fuel in the high pressure passage is
rapidly increased by radial plunger lift, and the high
pressure fuel is delivered through the constant pressure
valve (CPV) to the nozzle holder assembly and is
injected into the engine cylinder.
When the fuel injection quantity demanded by the
engine is reached, the current to the coil is cut and the
valve needle re-opens the valve seat.
As a result of this, a path is opened for the fuel in the
high pressure passage to the low pressure circuit and
the pressure decreases. With a decrease in injection
pressure the nozzle closes and injection ends.Timing Control Valve (TCV)
The pressure of the fuel fed from the feed pump is
adjusted in accordance with speed by the regulating
valve. This delivery pressure acts on the hydraulic
stopper's annular chamber as control pressure.
The chamber pressure of the annular chamber is
controlled by the timing control valve (TCV).
The timing plunger is connected to the cam ring by a
ball pin. Ax ial movement of the timing plunger is
transferred to the cam ring in the form of rotational
movement. Movement to the right of the timing plunger
(to the spring side) advances injection timing. (1) Valve Needle

When control current flows to the timing control valve
(TCV) coil, the valve needle opens and the fuel annular
chamber flows through the orifice to the feed pump inlet.
Consequently, the pressure of the annular chamber
decreases and the hydraulic stopper is moved to the
retard side.
The timing control valve (TCV) acts as a variable
throttle, using the rapid opening and closing (cycling) of
the valve needle in the timing control valve (TCV).
At normal operation, the TCV controls the pressure
acting on the annular chamber so that the hydraulic
stopper cam move to any position, from the retard
position to the advance position. At this time, the duty
ratio is set by the pump control unit (PSG).
Duty ratio is the ratio of the time that the timing control
valve (TCV) is opened to one complete timing control
valve (TCV) operating cycle. A duty ratio change of
100% to 0% is an advance in injection timing. (The
VP44 displays an ON duty ratio.)The engine control module (ECM) contains
characteristic maps of the start of injection,
corresponding to engine operating conditions (engine
load, engine speed and engine coolant temperature).
The pump control unit (PSG) is constantly comparing
the set start of injection timing and the actual start of
injection timing. If there is a difference, the timing
control valve (TCV) is controlled by the duty ratio. (The
actual start of injection timing is determined from the
pump camshaft speed sensor.) (1) Coil

ENGINE MECHANICAL (6VE1 3.5L) 6A-3
General Description
Engine Cleanliness And Care
An automobile engine is a combination of many
machined, honed, polished and lapped surfaces with
tolerances that are measured in the thousandths of a
millimeter (ten thousandths of an inch). Accordingly,
when any internal engine parts are serviced, care and
cleanliness are important. Throughout this section, i
t
should be understood that proper cleaning and
protection of machined surfaces and friction areas is
part of the repair procedure. This is considered
standard shop practice even if not specifically stated.


A liberal coating of engine oil should be applied to
all friction areas during assembly to protect and
lubricate the surfaces on initial operation.

Whenever valve train components, pistons, piston
rings, connecting rods, rod bearings, and
crankshaft journal bearings are removed fo
r
service, they should be retained in order.


At the time of installation, they should be installed
in the same locations and with the same mating
surfaces as when removed.

Battery cables should be disconnected before any
major work is performed on the engine. Failure to
disconnect cables may result in damage to wire
harness or other electrical parts.

The six cylinders of this engine are identified by
numbers; Right side cylinders 1, 3 and 5, Left side
cylinders 2, 4 and 6, as counted from crankshaf
t
pulley side to flywheel side.
General Information on Engine Service
The following information on engine service should be
noted carefully, as it is important in preventing damage
and contributing to reliable engine performance.

When raising or supporting the engine for any
reason, do not use a jack under the oil pan. Due to
the small clearance between the oil pan and the oil
pump strainer, jacking against the oil pan may
cause damage to the oil pick-up unit.

The 12-volt electrical system is capable o
f
damaging circuits. When performing any work
where electrical terminals could possibly be
grounded, the ground cable of the battery should
be disconnected at the battery.


Any time the intake air duct or air cleaner is
removed, the intake opening should be covered.
This will protect against accidental entrance o
f
foreign material into the cylinder which could
cause extensive damage when the engine is
started.
Cylinder Block
The cylinder block is made of aluminum die-cast casting
for 75Vtype six cylinders. It has a rear plate integrated
structure and employs a deep skirt. The cylinder liner is
cast and the liner inner diameter and crankshaft journal
diameter are classified into grades. The crankshaft is
supported by four bearings of which width is differen
t
between No.2, No.3 and No.1, No.4; the width of No.3
bearing on the body side is different in order to suppor
t
the thrust bearing. The bearing cap is made of nodular
cast iron and each bearing cap uses four bolts and two
side bolts.
Cylinder Head
The cylinder head, made of aluminum alloy casting
employs a pent-roof type combustion chamber with a
spark plug in the center. The intake and exhaust valves
are placed in V-type design. The ports are cross-flo
w
type.
Valve Train
Intake and exhaust camshaft on the both side of banks
are driven through an camshaft drive gear by timing
belt. The valves are operated by the camshaft and the
valve clearance is adjusted to select suitable thickness
shim.
Intake Manifold
The intake manifold system is composed of the
aluminum cast common chamber and intake manifold
attached with six fuel injectors.
Exhaust Manifold
The exhaust manifold is made of nodular cast iron.
Pistons and Connecting Rods
Aluminum pistons are used after selecting the grade
that meets the cylinder bore diameter. Each piston has
two compression rings and one oil ring. The piston pin
made of chromium steel is offset 1mm toward the thrus
t
side, and the thrust pressure of piston to the cylinder
wall varies gradually as the piston travels. The
connecting rods are made of forged steel. The
connecting rod bearings are graded for correct size
selection.
Crankshaft and Bearings
The crankshaft is made of Ductile cast-iron. Pins and
journals are graded for correct size selection for thei
r
bearing.
Engine Control Module (ECM)
The ECM location is on the common charmber.
