2) Fuel System Flow Diagram
The fuel from the fuel tank is supplied to the fuel heater of fuel filter/priming pump and then low pressure
generated by the low pressure pump (built into HP pump) is transmitted to the HP pump.
The fuel pressure at the HP pump is controlled by the IMV valve, and the maximum allowed pressure is
1,800 bar. The compressed fuel at the fuel pump is delivered to the rail, and injected by the injectors
according to the injection signals. The injection method is the same with the conventional method; Fuel
return by backleak which operates the needle valve.
The major difference is that the fuel return line is connected to the fuel filter inlet port, not the HP pump
venturi.
The pressure from the high pressure pump is increased to 1,800 bar from 1,600 bar, and the pump is now
installed to the cylinder head (cylinder block for previous model). The fuel pressure is generated by the
operation of intake camshaft and gears. The specifications for the IMV valve and the fuel temperature
sensor are not changed.

(2) Fuel Control
a. Fuel Pressure Control Elements
Pressure control consists of 2 principles.
Determines rail pressure according to engine operating conditions.
Controls IMV to make the rail pressure to reach to the required value. -
-
Pressure in the fuel rail is determined according to engine speed and load on the engine.
When engine speed and load are high
The degree of turbulence is very great and the fuel can be injected at very high pressure in order to
optimize combustion.
When engine speed and load are low
The degree of turbulence is low. If injection pressure is too high, the nozzle's penetration will be
excessive and part of the fuel will be sprayed directly onto the sides of the cylinder, causing
incomplete combustion. So there occurs smoke and damages engine durability. -
-
Fuel pressure is corrected according to air temperature, coolant temperature and atmospheric pressure
and to take account of the added ignition time caused by cold running or by high altitude driving. A
special pressure demand is necessary in order to obtain the additional flow required during starts. This
demand is determined according to injected fuel and coolant temperature.
b. Fuel Pressure Control
Open loop determines the current which needs to be sent to the actuator in order to obtain the flow
demanded by the ECU. ▶
Closed loop will correct the current value depending on the difference between the pressure demand
and the pressure measured. ▶
If the pressure is lower than the demand, current is reduced so that the fuel sent to the high pressure
pump is increased.
If the pressure is higher than the demand, current is increased so that the fuel sent to the high
pressure pump is reduced. -
-
Rail pressure is controlled by closed loop regulation of IMV.

5) Guidelines on Engine Service
(1) Cautions before service works
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 o
f
HP pump, fuel hoses and high pressure pipes.
To remoev the engine, use the dedicated equipments such as engine jack, transmission jack, engine
stand and engine crane. -
-
-
-
-
(2) Engine and accessories
When disassembling the engine, related parts (bolts, gaskets, etc.) should be stored as a set.
Clean the components completely with engine oil before assembling if needed.
Fully drain the engine oil, coolant and fuel from the vehicle and seal the inlets with the plugs before
removing the engine.
All the interference should be eliminated before removing the engine. -
-
-
- To prevent the personal injuries and vehicle damages that can be caused by mistakes during service
and to provide the optimized performance and safety after service works, the service technicials must
keep the basic cautions and service guidelines below. These could be easily forgotten during service
works.
Engine has a lot of precise components. The specified tightening torque and correct procedures should
be kept during service works. And, the working area is always clean and well prepared.
To prevent any damage to electric systems, make sure to disconnect the negative (-) cable from the
battery and place the ignition switch to OFF position before servicing.
Use only the specified parts with same ratings when replacing the electric devices. Check the
grounds and connections for looseness. -
-
(3) Electric devices
Extraordinary care should be taken when servicing the electric systems. Currently, the engine uses a lot
of electric devices. Short circuit and poor contact may cause the low engine performance, incomplete
combustion and other abnormalities.
When working with the fuel or oil systems in enclosed area, always keep the working area well-
ventilated and never allow anybody to smoke.
Gaskets and seals on the fuel and oil systems should be replaced with new ones. All bolts and nuts
should be tightened as specified.
Make sure to check the connections for leak after installation. -

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). -

Fuel and engine oil system ▶
The engine oil and fuel damages the painted surfaces and rubber material of the vehicle.
Disconnect the negative cable from the battery before servicing the fuel system, and prepare the
service plug grip.
When working with the fuel or oil systems in enclosed area, always keep the working area well-
ventilated and never allow anybody to smoke.
Do not allow the gasoline to contact to rubber or leather parts.
Carefully separate the pipe between high pressure fuel pump and fuel injector so that any fuel can
be spilled out.
Fully release the pressure from the fuel system before removing any parts of fuel system.
To release the fuel pressure in high pressure line, let the engine fully cool down.
Gaskets and seals on the fuel and oil systems should be replaced with new ones. All bolts and nuts
should be tightened as specified.
Prolonged exposure to the engine oil make cause a skin cancer or an irritation.
Used engine cotains the hazardous material that may cause the skin cancer. Do not allow the used
engine to make contact with your skin.
Make sure to wear the protection gloves and goggle when handling the engine oil. If contact
happens, rinse affected areas immediately with plenty of water. Do not wash it with gasoline or
solvent. If irritation persists, consult a doctor.
Improperly disposed engine oil can pollute the environment. Dispose the used engine oil and oil
filter in accordance with local environmental regulations.
Make sure to check the connections for leak after installation. -
