ee ee899 SPI engine
SEAT is constantly concerned with the
improvement in the quality and performance
of its products,
‘An example of this is the appearance of
the new 899 SPI engine, based on the
already well tested 903 unit, introducing
improvements in the mechanical
components ard fitting a new SPI injection
system.
The most remarkable mechanical
modifications consist in the incorporation of
new pistons and timing chain tensioner. This
enables the engine noise level to be
reduced.
The SPI engine management has enabled
the power level to be retained while at the
same time reducing the emission of noxious
gases and reducing the fuel consumption
thus complying with the present legislation
in force.
The SPI injection is a single point
injection system, governed by a control unit.
This unit controls the operation of other
engine functions at the same time, thus
optimising the engine performance.
All these cheracteristics together with a
complete autociagnosis system, guarantee
rapid and efficient fault finding, making it
possible to return customers vehicles under
repair quickly.

POWER AND TORQUE CURVES
The 899 SPI engine provides maximum
power close to 5800 rpm, developing
30 kW (40 CV).
The maximum torque is produced
around 3000 rpm and this figure is held over
an rpm range extending from 2000 to
3600 rpm, making for comfortable driving.
In short, this is a very elastic engine,
since it has a very wide useful rpm range,
giving the vehicle very good recovery
characteristics.PISTON
The incorporation of a new piston design
increases their durability and at the same
time helps to reduce oil consumption.
The weight of these pistons has been
reduced while at the same time obtaining a
more rational force distribution. The piston
to cylinder fit is more accurately controlled
thus reducing the play between both. The
piston slap is reduced making for a less
noisy engine.
The piston is also fitted with new rings,
improving engine sealing.
TIMING CHAIN TENSIONER
The timing chain is made up of two
different parts, one is the plastic block which
is made up of a spring and a wedge and the
other is a metal bracket.
The block is in constant contact with the
timing chain, since the wedge is pressed by
the spring against the block thus tensioning
the chain. This reduces play in the chain.
It should also be observed that a
ratchet mechanism is fitted between the
wedge and its sliding surface preventing
it from slipping back.
The timing chain therefore needs no
readjustment since the tensioning is
automatic.
In short, the timing chain tensioner
eliminates the noise which sets in with the
passage of kilometres thus improving
comfort due to a quieter running engine.

The commitment by SEAT to environment
protection by reducing the emission of
noxious gases to a minimum has led to the
development of the 899 SPI engine
management.
The contamination levels have been
reduced due to several factors. One
reason is the incorporation of electronics
for engine management which enables fuel
consumption to be reduced while retaining
performance levels, and another is the fitting
of a carbon canister ventilation system.
To enable the 899 SPI engine management
to carry out all the functions correctly, the
control unit needs to know the condition of
the engine, for which itis fitted with a series
of sensors and actuators able to adapt the
engine according to the calculations made
by the control unit.
The basic information required for the
majority of the functions is the rpm and the
load condition of the engine. This
information is obtained from an rpm sensor
and an air intake pressure sensor.
However for proper operation, the control
unit needs more information about the
engine condition, such as, the coolant
temperature, the air intake temperature, the
position of the throttle and the amount of
‘oxygen in the exhaust gases.
The SPI engine management analyses the
put data, thus controlling the different
functions by using the actuators: injection
valve, transformers, idle stabilising valve
and the carbon canister ventilation valve,
In the fuel circuit, the pressure required
is generated by an electric pump and this
pressure is limited by a pressure regulator.FUEL SYSTEM
FUEL CIRCUIT
The SPI engine is fitted with a new design
of fuel pump mounted next to the gauge
inside the tank.
The pump sends fuel to the central
injection unit through the fuel filter, thus
ensuring that all the fuel arrives in perfect
condition to the injection valve, avoiding
the risk of obstruction in the system due to
the inclusion of dirt.
‘A membrane type pressure regulator
holds a constant pressure in the system.
The pressure regulator is fitted in the
central injection unit between the injector
and the return line. The excess fuel is
returned to the tank.
This regulator offers several advantages:
— Ensures that the pressure in the system
is held constant so that the amount
of fuel injected will only depend on the
injection time.
= Maintains a residual pressure for a certain
period after stopping the engine to avoid
the formation of bubbles which could cause
difficult starting later when hot.

PRESSURE SENDER G71
The pressure transmitter is located in
the front panel near the radiator. The task
of this component is to determine the
pressure in the inlet manifold.
A capillary tube transmits the pressure
in the manifold (on the lower body of the
injection unit) to the pressure sender
The sender is made up of two cavities,
separated by a ceramic membrane with
a variable resistance. Vacuum is produced
in one of the cavities, while the other
is in contact with the inlet manifold and
has the same pressure as in the engine
intake side.
In order to make the measurements, the
control unit supplies the sender with a
stabilised 5 volt supply and the negative
supply is received from the control unit.
The output signal from the sender to
the control unit depends on the pressure
in the inlet manifold , since this produces
the deformation of the ceramic membrane.
12
The output values are between 0 and 5 volts
and vary in proportion to the pressure.
SIGNAL APPLICATION
This signal is necessary to calculate the
following functions:
—Fuel injection.
—Igi mn.
~Carbon canister operation.
REPLACEMENT FUNCTION
When the control unit detects a fault, it
sets a value which varies according to the
angle of the throttle. At the same time, it
Note: When the capillary tube of the sender
is manipulated, care should be taken not to
leave any kinks in it.RPM SENDER G28
This sender is fitted to the engine block
above the driving pulley of the auxiliary
units on which the phonic gear is mounted.
This is an inductive type sender with —
om
@ parasite signal protection around the
cable, helping to reduce the interferences
in the signal.
‘The phonic gear has 58 teeth, and tonne
these have a gap equal to the width of
2 teeth. When this gap passes under the
sender, the piston number 1 is located
114° before TDC.
When the teeth pass under the sender,
they generates a sinusoidal voltage, which is
used by the control unit to determine
instantaneous engine rpm, since each
voltage peak represents a tooth on the
phonic gear.
When the gap passes under the sender,
the voltage peak created is greater,
indicating the location of each piston.
This process enables information to
be obtained in order to determine
47-10
the position and angular velocity of the
crankshaft at all times.
SIGNAL APPLICATION
The rpm and position signal is necessary
to calculate the following fun
—Fuel injection.

REPLACEMENT FUNCTION
In case of failure of the rpm sender,
the engine stops or does not start and
no replacement function is available.SENSORS
THROTTLE POTENTIOMETER
G69
The throttle potentiometer is fitted to
the lower part of the central injection unit.
Ithas a pre-set position and cannot be
adjusted
This is a linear single track signal
potentiometer. This signal is used to
determine the position of the throttle and
the speed of the throttle position changes
at all times.
The control unit supplies the throttle
potentiometer with 5 volts and earth.
SIGNAL APPLICATION
The signal of the throttle position is
necessary to correctly perform the following
functions:
~Fuel injection.
= Ignition.
= Idle stabilising.
~Carbon canister operation.
REPLACEMENT FUNCTION
In case of failure the control unit uses
replacement values, depending on the
engine rpm. If the engine is running less
than 1500 rpm, the control unit assigns
a value of 14.4° for the throttle opening.
For the rest of the rpm range the control
unit sets a replacement value of 51.2°
for the throttle opening.
The fault is memorised by the control
unit.

LAMBDA SENSOR G39
This is located on the left of the exhaust
manifold.
The lambda sensor includes a PTC type
heater element, which is supplied directly
from the fuel pump relay, in other words, it
is permanently fed during engine operation.
SIGNAL APPLICATION
This signal is needed for the following
functions:
~ Fuel injection.
~ Carbon canister operation.
The lambda signal is used for mixture
correction and to maintain the correct
stoiochimetric relation.
16
REPLACEMENT FUNCTION
In case of failure in the lambda
sensor, the control unit memorises the
fault and deactivates the lambda
adjustment. In other words, the engine
will be managed without the calculation
of the lambda signal.
The engine management will not be
able to calculate the amount of oxygen
in the exhaust gases, it will not be
able to make adjustments in order to
maintain the correct stoiochimetric
mixture for each situation, meaning
that the amount of noxious gases
emitted will increase.ACTUATORS

INJECTION VALVE N30
The injection valve is located in the
upper body of the central injection unit.
Itis made of a valve body with an
electromagnetic winding and an induction
operated needle.
It is governed by the control unit
using a negative energising signal, positive
is supplied from the fuel pump relay.
The fuel is finely pulverised thanks
to the shape of the injection needle tip.
A conical spray pattern is created between
30 and 90°.
ENERGISING
The control unit modifies the energising
period, so that the fuel injected is regulated,
since the pressure in the system remains
constant.
For each engine cycle, two injections
are made on condition that the injection
time calculated by the control unit does
not exceed 1.3 msec.
When this period exceeds 1.3 msec.,
four injections per cycle are made.
The contro! unit retains a reading of
the battery voltage at all times, since this,
value could affect the injected flow.

IGNITION TRANSFORMERS
N-NT
The ignition system is made up of two
spark ignition transformers. This eliminates
the need for a distributor since each
transformer feeds two different pairs of
cylinders 1 - 4 and 2 -3 with ignition current
at the same time.
The transformers are located in a bracket
integrated in the rocker cover.
The final power stages, are located in
the control unit, these are designed to cut
or build up the primary current of the
transformers.
ENERGISING
ice the final power stages are located
in the control unit, the voltage which
reaches the transformers is adequate to
produce a spark. This will vary according
to the calculation made by the control
unit in a continuous fashion.

IDLE STABILISING VALVE N71
The idle stabilising valve is fitted on the
lower body of the central injection unit. Its
function is to regulate the passage of air
through an orifice which bridges the
throttle.
The idle stabilising valve is made from a
stepped motor composed of the following
parts:
— A stator with two windings.
-Arotor @ permanent magnet and a
threaded shaft.
— An adjustment cone.
The adjustment cone is threaded to the
centre and coincides with the thread of the
rotor. The cone is guided by the housing and
cannot rotate, it can only move in an axial
direction. The air passage to the manifold
will open or close depending on the
direction of rotation of the motor.
ENERGISING
The control unit governs the positive
and negative current supply to the two
motor windings.
The rotation of the stepped motor is
carried out by energising the magnetic fields
of the stator in a stepped manner.
The polarity of one of the windings is
changed with each step and this produces
the intermittent movement of the rotor.
The polarity change of the windings is
done in a pre-set fashion.
When the motor feed is cut, the rotor
stops instantaneously in its present
position.ACTUATORS
CARBON CANISTER
VENTILATION VALVE N80
The ventilation valve is located near the
front wheel arch. Its function is to regulate
the passage of vapours from the carbon
canister to the engine inlet manifold. This
vapour transfer depends on the energising
time calculated by the control unit.
The valve remains closed in the at rest
position, and only opens when it is
energised by the control unit.
ENERGISING
The energising is governed by the control
unit and this is done through negative feed
with a fixed frequency and a variable phase
which changes according to the actual
condition of the engine.
SUPPLY RELAY J176
FUEL PUMP RELAY J17
These are located in an auxiliary relay
plate, over the right wheel arch next to the
control unit.
The supply relay feeds the control unit.
The fuel pump relay supplies current to
the following actuators:

= Ignition transformer, cyl. 1-4,
— Ignition transformer, cyl. 2-3.

control unit uses a characteristic map, which
is determined by the engine rpm and the air
pressure in the inlet manifold.

MAXIMUM RPM LIMITATION
The control unit limits maximum engine
rotation speed to 6250 rpm. In this way the
mechanical components of the engine are
protected.
This control is achieved by cutting the
injection and controlling ignition advance.
DECELERATION CUT OFF
The deceleration cut off consists in
intercepting the injection for a short period.
This function will always be carried out
when the control unit detects throttle
closure with an engine rpm higher than the
value programmed for the momentaneous
engine temperature.
If the coolant temperature is less than
20°C, the deceleration cut off will not take
place until the temperature reaches 0 °C,
however if the temperatura is higher than
20 °C the function will be activated when
the engine is started.
The fact of operating this function at
different temperatures enables the engine
to reach working temperature quickly,
reducing fuel consumption and noxious
gas emissions.
CORRECTION DURING ACCELERATION

movement.
During acceleration, the control unit
increases the injection time, in order to
enrichen the mixture.
When the control unit detects full load,
it determines the injection time based only
on the engine rpm, and does not take the
intake air pressure into account.
The execution of these engine phases
depends on the pressure end the position
of the throttle.

LAMBDA ADJUSTMENT
The control unit uses the lambda signal
to correct the injection time according
to the amount of residual oxygen in the
exhaust gases.
If the engine temperature is less than
20 °C the adjustment does not start until
it reaches 60 °C.
If the air temperature is greater than
17°C and the engine temperature is
greater than 20 °C the adjustment will be
carried out.

The optimum ignition advance is calculated
by the control unit using the following signals:

The functions assumed in the ignition are:
— Control of the ignition advance according
to a characteristic map.
—Control of the dwell angle.
— Digital idle stabilising.
— Correction during acceleration and full

CONTROL OF IGNITION ADVANCE
This is controlled by a characteristic
map, which varies according to two
basic signals: engine rpm and inlet
manifold pressure. When the engine
is idling, the calculation made is based
only on engine rpm.
The control unit sets different corrections,

CONTROL OF DWELL ANGLE
The contro! unit determines the dwell
angle according to the signals received in
order to obtain a correct spark, thus
ensuring a current supply time for the
mers, in line with each operating
condition of the engine.
CORRECTION DURING WARM UP
During engine warm up, the control unit
advances the ignition, due to the need for
more combustion time during this phase.

When the engine is stopped the carbon
canister ventilation valve is closed,
preventing the combustion vapours from
reaching the central injection unit.
In order for the control unit to energise
the carbon canister ventilation valve,
the engine must not be in the starting
phase, the coolant temperature must
be above 75 °C, the engine must be
running above 1500 rpm and the absolute
pressure in the inlet manifold must be
between 300 - 760 mm Hg.
As the rpm increases, the opening
