Description And Operation
The 2.0 Liter in-line four cylinder engine is a single over head camshaft four valves per cylinder design. This engine is NOT free-wheeling; meaning that the pistons will contact the valves in the event of a timing chain failure.
The cylinders are numbered from front of the engine to the rear. The firing order is 1-3-4-2.
The cylinder head is designed with a variable valve actuator assembly (VVAA) that takes the place of a conventional intake camshaft assembly. The cylinder block and cylinder head are cast aluminum.
