3. GUIDELINES ON ENGINE SERVICE
G20DF engine is for FF (Front Engine Front Drive) type vehicle. Therefore, there are some deferent
maintenance and repair works compared to the engine for FR (Front Engine Rear Drive) type vehicle.
For safe and correct works, you must observe the working procedures and instructions in this manual.
And, use the designated tools as follow:
: Power train mounting stand / Engine hanger / Engine stand / Heavy duty engine jack.
Cautions before service works ▶
G20DF engine is FF (Front Engine Front Drive) type engine, and the engine and transmission are
integrated in a same module. Remember that there are many differences compared to
conventional engine in FR (Front Engine Rear Drive) type SUV vehicle.
To remove the engine, use the dedicated equipments such as engine jack, transmission jack,
engine stand and engine crane (1 ton).
To prevent the engine from abruptly starting during service in engine compartment, never allow
anybody to stay in the vehicle.
Make sure to disconnect the negative (-) cable from the battery to prevent any damage to electric
systems.
Make sure to clean the working area and to prepare the necessary tools before service works.
Always place the ignition switch to OFF position if not required. Otherwise, there could be
unexpected damage to electric devices or personal injuries due to short-circuit..
To prevent the foreign material from entering into the fuel injection system, completely seal the
inlets of HP pump, fuel hoses and high pressure pipes.
Do not remove the engine while supporting the oil pan with a jack. -

Lifting up the vehicle ▶
Before lifting up the vehicle with a lift, correctly support the lifting points.
To prevent the vehicle from rolling down, put the chocks under the tires (when using a 4-post lift).
Make sure to support the correct lifting points (when using a 2-post lift). -

The drive chain is single chain drive system with simple design and variable performance, and it utilizes
the hydraulic tensioner to reduce the wave impact generated by the chain. The silent chain provides the
silence during the operation. To improve NVH, the shoulder bolt has been introduced. Overview ▶

1. OVERVIEW
This system purifies the exhaust gas generated by the combustion in the engine to reduce the pollutants
and noise during that arise during combustion.
Harmful materials produced in the combustion process is treated and reduced in the exhaust system.
Harmful materials discharged from the crankcase and fuel tank is drawn into the intake system again to
reduce discharge amount of harmful materials.
Emission aftertreatment system ▶
Catalytic Converter & O2 Sensor
The catalytic converter is a monolith type purification system composed of cordierite which purifies
exhaust gas through the small holes of active monolith catalyst from the exhaust manifold. As exhaus
t
gas passes through the small holes in the layer in the middle, its CO and HC are reduced by
oxidization reaction and its NOx is reduced by reduction reaction to Pt, Ph and Pd. The oxygen
sensor sends signals for feedback and determination of catalyst condition. For detailed description,
see the corresponding section. -
The fuel evaporative gas is a gas evaporated to the atmosphere in the section between the fuel tank and
fuel line, and its main component is hydrocarbon (HC). The fuel evaporative gas is temporarily stored in
the canister, and it is drawn to the engine through the throttle body when the purge control solenoid valve
is open according to the engine operating condition.
Gas in the combustion chamber is sealed by the piston. However, gas is leaked through the gap
between the cylinder and piston and drawn into the crankcase during the compression and explosion
strokes. This gas is blow-by gas and its main components are hydrocarbon and carbon monoxide. If this
gas is drawn into the crankcase, the system can be corroded and oil can be deteriorated. Also, if this
gas is discharged into the air, it can pollute the environment. To prevent these, the blow-by gas
reduction system (also called as crankcase ventilation system) draws the blow-by gas from the
crankcase to the combustion chamber for combustion.

1. OVERVIEW
The ignition system is to supply high voltage generated from the ignition coil to the spark plug. The
G20DF engine is equipped with the independent type direct ignition system that the ignition coil is
installed in each cylinder.
The basic ignition timing in each cylinder is determined by the signals from camshaft position sensor and
crankshaft position sensor.
This ignition system controls the electronic ignition timing received from the engine ECU. To control the
ignition timing precisely, the ECU use the information below:
Engine load
Coolant temperature
Intake air temperature
Engine rpm
Camshaft position sensor (CPS)
Crankshaft position sensor (CKS) -
-
-
-
-
-
If the signal from the camshaft position sensor is not delivered to the engine ECU, the ignition coil and
fuel system cannot be operated.
