This manual contains a detailed description of the structures and principles, servicing and adjustment,
removal, assembling technology and matching clearance of the parts of the Geely “MK” sedans
with torque information of the bolts and nuts as well as schematic diagram for special tool operation.
This manual also introduces the transmission control system of the automatic transmission models,
vehicle electric circuits and elaborates ABS system, SRS, BOSCH M7.9.7 electronic control fuel
injection and ignition system, rear parking radar, sound, air conditioning and onboard hands-free
phone system. You can refer to this manual for the information about the regular maintenance,
servicing, adjustment, troubleshooting, removal and installation procedure, specific operations of
the “MK” sedans.
This manual covers the matching relation among the engine assembly, transmission assembly and
the vehicle, but does not have the further description of the structures and principles of the engine
and transmission assemblies and their servicing process. You can refer to the service manuals
solely prepared for engine assembly and transmission assembly for these information.
All information in this manual is based on the latest products released at the time of publication of
this manual. However, the specifications and procedures may need to be modified, and the subse-
quent change will be revealed in later versions.
This manual is prepared by Geely Automobile Research Institute under the assistance of technical

jacking up the rear wheels, place stoppers only before the front wheels.
(5)During the job, make sure to use safety stand instead of jack
only to support the vehicle.
(6)When only jacking up the front wheels or rear wheels, place
stoppers before or after the wheels touching the ground.
(7)when lowering the vehicle with its front wheels lifted, release
the park brake, and place the stopper only before the rear wheels.
When lowering the vehicle with its rear wheels lifted, place the stop-
per only after the front wheels. the opening of the removed inlet system parts and the engine with a
clean shop lag or gum tape.
(3)When installing the inlet system parts, check that there is no

Figure 1-2
Figure 1-3Engine AssemblyEngine Inspection3-3 After the belt is re-mounted and operates more than 5 minutes, check the distortion based on old belt
distortion.
Check the tensioning force and the distortion of the V-belt after the crankshaft of the engine has rotated 2
turns.
10. Check the ignition timing (see Figure 1-2).
(1) Start the engine for warming up.
(2) When using the portable tester:
Connect the portable tester to the fault diagnosis socket
(DLC3).
Ignition timing:
before the top dead center when idling.
Prompt:
Please refer to the operating manual of the portable tester for
detail.
(3) When not using the portable tester:
a.Short the terminals 13(TC) and 4(CG) of the fault diagnosis socket(DLC3) with special service tool(SST).
Attention:

Make sure to connect correctly, or else the engine can be damaged.
Switch off all the electric systems.
Check when the cooling fan motor is disconnected.
b.Check the ignition timing with a timing light.
Ignition timing: 10°±20' before the top dead center when idling.
Note:
(a) Check the ignition timing, and the transmission should be set to the neutral position.
(b) Keep the engine speed at 1,000-1,300r/min for 5s and check when idling.
(c) Remove the special tool on the fault diagnosis socket.
(d) When the engine speed rises, the advance angle of ignition timing will increase.
(e) Remove the timing light.
11. Check the engine idle (see Figure 1-3).
(1) The engine warms up.
(2) When using the portable tester: Connect the portable tester to the fault diagnosis socket (DLC3).
