DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING)
Theory of Operation
Dual Variable Valve Timing (VVT) allows the PCM to monitor and adjust the position of each camshaft, based on
desired torque levels and engine operating conditions. The PCM controls two solenoid operated control valves, one
for each camshaft, that are used to direct oil pressure to hydraulic actuators mounted between each camshaft and
its driving sprocket. The oil pressure alters the angular position or phasing of each camshaft relative to crankshaft
rotation. A sensor is used to monitor the position of each camshaft.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING)
Theory of Operation
Dual Variable Valve Timing (VVT) allows the PCM to monitor and adjust the position of each camshaft, based on
desired torque levels and engine operating conditions. The PCM controls two solenoid operated control valves, one
for each camshaft, that are used to direct oil pressure to hydraulic actuators mounted between each camshaft and
its driving sprocket. The oil pressure alters the angular position or phasing of each camshaft relative to crankshaft
rotation. A sensor is used to monitor the position of each camshaft.

1. EXHAUST LEAK
NOTE: A thorough exhaust leak test must be completed before removing an O2 Sensor or any other part
from the exhaust system. Do not remove any parts before an exhaust leak check has been completed.
NOTE: An exhaust leak may cause downstream fuel adaptives to rail out, resulting in a false 1/1 O2 Sensor
failure
Turn the ignition off.
Inspect the exhaust system for leaks between the engine and the 1/1 Oxygen Sensor.
Perform a leak test with Miller Tool #8404A Evaporative Emissions Leak Detector (EELD), even if an audible leak is
not heard. Pay particular attention to the exhaust manifold to head surface, exhaust pipe to manifold connection,
and the O2 sensor boss for leaks.
Connect the SMOKE supply tip (black hose) to the exhaust cone adapter (if equipped) and place it into the tail pipe.
Set the smoke/air control switch to SMOKE.
Press the remote smoke/air start button.
While still holding the remote smoke/air start button, use the white light (#8404-CLL) to follow the exhaust system
path and look for a leak, indicated by exiting smoke.
If a leak is concealed from view, release the remote smoke/air start button, and use the ultraviolet (UV) black light
#8404-UVL and the yellow goggles 8404-20 to look for residual traces of dye that is left behind by the smoke.
The exiting smoke deposits a residual fluid that is either bright green or bright yellow in color when viewed with a

Theory of Operation
The PCM performs a continuous check of the O2 sensor heater circuit during operation. The heater circuit is
momentarily disabled to allow a resistance measurement to be taken to infer heater temperature. The current deliv-
ery to the heater is duty cycled to maintain a specific target temperature. The error from the target temperature is
continuously monitored to assess heater performance.
• When Monitored:
With the engine running, O2 sensor heater duty cycle greater than 0%, and battery voltage greater than 11.0
volts.
• Set Condition:
The PCM detects no O2 sensor output when the heater is powered up. Two trip fault. Three good trips to turn

Theory of Operation
The Evap Purge Monitor tests the integrity of the hoses/tube between the throttle body/intake and the fuel tank. The
monitor is a two stage test and runs only after the Evap system passes the small leak test. Stage one is non-
intrusive. The PCM monitors the purge vapor ratio and the ESM switch closed ratio. If the purge vapor ratio is
above a calculated value, the monitor passes. If the ESM switch closed ratio is greater than calculated value when
purge flow is greater than a minimum value, the monitor passes. Stage two is an intrusive test and runs only if
stage one does not pass. The PCM commands the purge solenoid to flow at a specified rate to force the purge
vapor ratio to update. The ratio is compared to a calibrated specification. If it is less than specified, a one trip failure
is recorded. This test can detect if the purge hose is off, obstructed, or the purge valve is not operational.
• When Monitored:
With the engine running, after the Evap System small leak test has passed.
• Set Condition:
If the PCM detects that the purge vapor ratio and the ESM switch closed ratio are below a calculated value,
the PCM commands the purge solenoid to flow at a specified rate to update the purge vapor ratio. If the ratio
remains below a specified value, a one trip failure is recorded. Two Trip Fault. Three good trips to turn off the
MIL.

Theory of Operation
The vehicle speed sensor rationality is a continuous test that monitors the vehicle speed sensor for lack of activity.
The rationality will not run if a limp-in exists for MAP, Throttle Position, and Engine Coolant Temperature. If vehicle
speed sensor is below a minimum threshold for a period of time after the vehicle is operated at a sufficient load, a
failure will be indicated.
• When Monitored:
With the engine running, transmission not in park or neutral, brakes not applied, and engine RPM greater than
1500.
• Set Condition:
This code will set if no vehicle speed signal is received from the ABS Module for more than 11 seconds for 2
consecutive trips. Two Trip Fault. Three good trips to turn off the MIL.

Theory of Operation
The objective of the Idle Speed Rationality monitor is to evaluate the ability of the idle speed control system to
achieve and maintain a steady idle, by monitoring engine RPM during idle. If engine RPM is not within a calibrated
deadband of target idle speed, a timer is started. If the timer reaches a maximum threshold without any sign of the
RPM trending towards control, a soft failure is generated.
• When Monitored:
With the engine idling in drive (for CVT vehicles) with the brake applied, MAF < 250 mg/tdc, air temp > -17.8°
C (0° F) enable after coolant temp > 70° C (158° F), canister purge < 100% duty cycle, and no VSS, MAF/

Theory of Operation
The objective of the Idle Speed Rationality monitor is to evaluate the ability of the idle speed control system to
achieve and maintain a steady idle, by monitoring engine RPM during idle. If engine RPM is not within a calibrated
deadband of target idle speed, a timer is started. If the timer reaches a maximum threshold without any sign of the
RPM trending towards control, a soft failure is generated.
• When Monitored:
With the engine idling in drive (for CVT vehicles) with the brake applied, MAF < 250 mg/tdc, air temp > -17.8°
C (0° F) enable after coolant temp > 70° C (158° F), canister purge < 100% duty cycle, and no VSS, MAF/
MAP, ECT, TPS, ETC, CKP Sensor, fuel system, or injector DTCs present.
• Set Condition:
If the idle speed is 175 RPM or more above the target idle speed for 30 seconds. Two Trip Fault. Three good
trips to turn off the MIL.

Diagnostic Test
1. DTC IS ACTIVE
Ignition on, engine not running.
With a scan tool, select View DTCs.
NOTE: Diagnose and repair any Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor DTCs before proceeding with
this test.
NOTE: Inspect the ECT sensor and related PCM connector terminals for corrosion or damage.
NOTE: Extremely cold ambient temperatures may cause this DTC to set.
Is the status Active for this DTC?
Yes >> Go to 2
No >> Refer to the *CHECKING FOR AN INTERMITTENT DTC Diagnostic Procedure. (Refer to 9 - ENGINE -
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING)
3. THERMOSTAT
Ignition on, engine not running.
NOTE: Allow the engine to cool to ambient temperature before proceeding with this test.
Using the appropriate service information, determine the proper opening temperature of the thermostat.
With a scan tool, read the ECT sensor value. If the engine was allowed to cool completely, the value should be
approximately equal to the ambient temperature.
Start the engine and allow it to reach operating temperature while monitoring the ECT sensor value. The sensor
value change should be a smooth transition from start up to normal operating temperature. Monitor the actual cool-
ant temperature with a thermometer.
NOTE: As the engine warms up to operating temperature, the actual coolant temperature (thermometer read-
ing) and the coolant temperature value on the scan tool should be relatively close. The thermostat should
not open until the engine reaches the temperature specified in the Service Information.
Does the thermostat open at the temperature specified in the Service Information?
Yes >> Go to 4
No >> Replace the thermostat in accordance with the Service Information.

WARNING: WHEN THE ENGINE IS OPERATING, DO NOT STAND IN A DIRECT LINE WITH THE FAN. DO NOT
PUT YOUR HANDS NEAR THE PULLEYS, BELTS OR FAN. DO NOT WEAR LOOSE CLOTHING.
Based on the diagnostic condition that applies, review the following list and perform any tests that relate to the
condition:
If multiple DTCs are set in the PCM, review the wiring schematics for problems in any shared supply or ground
circuits. Refer to the diagnostic procedure for Checking the PCM Power and Ground Circuits.
Inspect the air intake system and related tubes for damage, restriction, or poor connection.
Inspect the exhaust system and related tubes for damage, restriction, or poor connection.
Remove and inspect the Air Filter for excessive dirt and debris which may cause an air flow restriction.
If the PCM detects and stores a DTC, the PCM also stores the environmental conditions under which the DTC was
set.
Before erasing stored DTCs, record these conditions. Attempting to duplicate these conditions may assist when
checking for an active DTC.
With the scan tool, Clear the stored DTC(s).

Theory of Operation
The Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor contains two independent three wire sensors. Each sensor provides inde-
pendent pedal position signals to the ECM. The raw voltage signal from APP #1 sensor is 2 times the raw voltage
signal from APP #2. Although the raw voltage signals differ, the scan tool converts and displays these voltages as
matching percentages of pedal travel.
• When Monitored:
With the ignition on. No other APP DTC’s set. No Sensor Reference Voltage DTC’s set.
• Set Condition:
APP Sensor #1 and APP Sensor #2 signals do not agree for 0.26 seconds.

WARNING: DO NOT REMOVE THE PRESSURE CAP WITH THE SYSTEM HOT AND UNDER PRESSURE
BECAUSE SERIOUS BURNS FROM COOLANT CAN OCCUR.
Check the coolant level and fill as required. DO NOT install the pressure cap.
Start and operate the engine until it attains normal operating temperature, then turn the engine OFF.
Clean spark plug recesses with compressed air.
Remove the spark plugs.
Remove the oil filler cap.
Remove the air cleaner.
Calibrate the tester according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The shop air source for testing should maintain 483
kPa (70 psi) minimum, 1,379 kPa (200 psi) maximum, with 552 kPa (80 psi) recommended.
Perform the test procedures on each cylinder according to the tester manufacturer’s instructions. While testing, lis-
ten for pressurized air escaping through the throttle body, tailpipe and oil filler cap opening. Check for bubbles in the

coolant.
All gauge pressure indications should be equal, with no more than 25% leakage per cylinder.
FOR EXAMPLE: At 552 kPa (80 psi) input pressure, a minimum of 414 kPa (60 psi) should be maintained in the
cylinder.
With the engine cool, remove the coolant pressure cap. Start the engine and allow it to warm up until thermostat
opens.
If a large combustion/compression pressure leak exists, bubbles will be visible in the coolant.
PM ENGINE 1.8L WORLD 9 - 1449
WARNING: WITH COOLING SYSTEM TESTER IN PLACE, PRESSURE WILL BUILD UP FAST. EXCESSIVE
PRESSURE BUILT UP, BY CONTINUOUS ENGINE OPERATION, MUST BE RELEASED TO A SAFE PRESSURE
POINT. NEVER PERMIT PRESSURE TO EXCEED 138 kPa (20 psi).
Install Cooling System Tester 7700 or equivalent to pressure cap neck. Start the engine and observe the tester’s
pressure gauge. If gauge pulsates with every power stroke of a cylinder a combustion pressure leak is evident.
Combustion leaks into the cooling system can also be checked by using Bloc-Chek Kit C-3685-A or equivalent.
Perform test following the procedures supplied with the tool kit.

minutes. Check the oil dipstick to make sure the dye is thoroughly mixed as indicated with a bright yellow color
under a black light.
3. Using a black light, inspect the entire engine for fluorescent dye, particularly at the suspected area of oil leak. If
the oil leak is found and identified, repair as necessary.
4. If dye is not observed, drive the vehicle at various speeds for approximately 24 km (15 miles), and repeat inspec-
tion.
5. If the oil leak source is not positively identified at this time, proceed with the air leak detection test method
as follows:
• Disconnect the fresh air hose (make-up air) at the cylinder head cover and plug or cap the nipple on the cover.
• Remove the PCV valve hose from the cylinder head cover. Cap or plug the PCV valve nipple on the cover.
• Attach an air hose with pressure gauge and regulator to the dipstick tube.
CAUTION: Do not subject the engine assembly to more than 20.6 kpa (3 PSI) of test pressure.
• Gradually apply air pressure from 1 psi to 2.5 psi maximum while applying soapy water at the suspected
source. Adjust the regulator to the suitable test pressure that provides the best bubbles which will pinpoint the
leak source. If the oil leak is detected and identified, repair per service manual procedures.
• If the leakage occurs at the crankshaft rear oil seal area, refer to the section, Inspection for Rear Seal Area
Leak.
6. If no leaks are detected, turn off the air supply. Remove the air hose, all plugs, and caps. Install the PCV valve
and fresh air hose (make-up air). Proceed to next step.
7. Clean the oil off the suspect oil leak area using a suitable solvent. Drive the vehicle at various speeds approx-
imately 24 km (15 miles). Inspect the engine for signs of an oil leak by using a black light.
NOTE: If oil leakage is observed at the dipstick tube to block location; remove the tube, clean and reseal
using MoparT Stud & Bearing Mount (press fit tube applications only), and for O-ring style tubes, remove
tube and replace the O-ring seal.
3. Remove torque converter or clutch housing cover and inspect rear of block for evidence of oil. Use a black light
to check for the oil leak. If a leak is present in this area, remove transmission for further inspection.
a. Circular spray pattern generally indicates seal leakage or crankshaft damage.
b. Where leakage tends to run straight down, possible causes are a porous block, oil gallery cup plug, bedplate
to cylinder block mating surfaces and seal bore. See proper repair procedures for these items.
4. If no leaks are detected, pressurize the crankcase as previously described.
5. If the leak is not detected, very slowly turn the crankshaft and watch for leakage. If a leak is detected between
the crankshaft and seal while slowly turning the crankshaft, it is possible the crankshaft seal surface is damaged.
The seal area on the crankshaft could have minor nicks or scratches that can be polished out with emery cloth.
CAUTION: Use extreme caution when crankshaft polishing is necessary to remove minor nicks and
scratches. The crankshaft seal flange is especially machined to complement the function of the rear oil seal.
6. For bubbles that remain steady with shaft rotation, no further inspection can be done until disassembled.
7. After the oil leak root cause and appropriate corrective action have been identified, replace component(s) as
necessary.

STANDARD PROCEDURE
REPAIR OF DAMAGED OR WORN THREADS
Damaged or worn threads (excluding spark plug and camshaft bearing cap attaching threads) can be repaired.
Essentially, this repair consists of drilling out worn or damaged threads, tapping the hole with a special Heli-Coil Tap,
(or equivalent) and installing an insert into the tapped hole. This brings the hole back to its original thread size.
CAUTION: Be sure that the tapped holes maintain the original center line.
Heli-Coil tools and inserts are readily available from automotive parts jobbers.
CAUTION: DO NOT use starter motor to rotate the engine, severe damage may occur.
1. Inspect air cleaner, induction system and intake manifold to insure system is dry and clear of foreign material.
2. Remove negative battery cable.
3. Place a shop towel around the spark plugs when removing them from the engine. This will catch any fluid that
may possibly be in the cylinder under pressure.
4. With all spark plugs removed, rotate engine crankshaft using a breaker bar and socket.
5. Identify the fluid in the cylinder(s) (i.e., coolant, fuel, oil or other).
6. Make sure all fluid has been removed from the cylinders. Inspect engine for damage (i.e., connecting rods, pis-
tons, valves, etc.)
7. Repair engine or components as necessary to prevent this problem from re-occurring.
CAUTION: Squirt approximately one teaspoon of oil into the cylinders, rotate engine to lubricate the cylin-
der walls to prevent damage on restart.

inspect the package for the expiration date before use.
MOPART GASKET MAKER is an anaerobic type gasket material. The material cures in the absence of air when
squeezed between two metallic surfaces. It will not cure if left in the uncovered tube. The anaerobic material is for
use between two machined surfaces. Do not use on flexible metal flanges.
MOPART BED PLATE SEALANT is a unique (green-in-color) anaerobic type gasket material that is specially made
to seal the area between the bed plate and cylinder block without disturbing the bearing clearance or alignment of
these components. The material cures slowly in the absence of air when torqued between two metallic surfaces,
and will rapidly cure when heat is applied.
MOPART GASKET SEALANT is a slow drying, permanently soft sealer. This material is recommended for sealing
threaded fittings and gaskets against leakage of oil and coolant. Can be used on threaded and machined parts
under all temperatures. This material also will prevent corrosion. MoparT Gasket Sealant is available in a 13 oz.
aerosol can or 4oz./16 oz. can w/applicator.
SEALER APPLICATION
MoparT Gasket Maker material should be applied sparingly 1 mm (0.040 in.) diameter or less of sealant to one
gasket surface. Be certain the material surrounds each mounting hole. Excess material can easily be wiped off.
Components should be torqued in place within 15 minutes. The use of a locating dowel is recommended during
assembly to prevent smearing material off the location.
MoparT Engine RTV GEN II or ATF RTV gasket material should be applied in a continuous bead approximately 3
mm (0.120 in.) in diameter. All mounting holes must be circled. For corner sealing, a 3.17 or 6.35 mm (1/8 or 1/4 in.)
drop is placed in the center of the gasket contact area. Uncured sealant may be removed with a shop towel. Com-
ponents should be torqued in place while the sealant is still wet to the touch (within 10 minutes). The usage of a
locating dowel is recommended during assembly to prevent smearing material off the location.
MoparT Gasket Sealant in an aerosol can should be applied using a thin, even coat sprayed completely over both
surfaces to be joined, and both sides of a gasket. Then proceed with assembly. Material in a can w/applicator can
be brushed on evenly over the sealing surfaces.

CAUTION: Excessive pressure or high RPM (beyond the recommended speed), can damage the sealing sur-
faces. The mild (white, 120 grit) bristle disc is recommended. If necessary, the medium (yellow, 80 grit) bris-
tle disc may be used on cast iron surfaces with care.
NOTE: Plastigage is available in a variety of clearance ranges. Use the most appropriate range for the spec-
ifications you are checking.

Possible indications of the cylinder head gasket leaking between adjacent cylinders are:
• Loss of engine power
• Engine misfiring
• Poor fuel economy
Possible indications of the cylinder head gasket leaking between a cylinder and an adjacent water jacket are:
• Engine overheating
• Loss of coolant
• Excessive steam (white smoke) emitting from exhaust
• Coolant foaming
With the engine cool, remove the coolant pressure cap. Start the engine and allow it to warm up until thermostat
opens.

ENGINE BLOCK
DESCRIPTION
The die cast aluminum cylinder block is a two-piece assembly, consisting of the cylinder block and ladder frame.
The block is an open deck design with cast in place cast iron cylinder liners. The cast iron cylinder liners are
recessed below the aluminum deck surface. The ladder frame bolts to the cylinder block and does not incorporate
the main bearing caps. This design offers a much stronger lower end and increased cylinder block and transaxle
rigidity. The rear oil seal retainer is integral with the block and ladder frame. The ladder frame and block are ser-
viced as an assembly.
The engine build date is located on the bottom of the
ladder frame just behind the oil pan. The date can be
seen with the oil pan in place.

STANDARD PROCEDURE
CYLINDER BORE HONING
1. Used carefully, a quality commercially available cyl-
inder bore resizing hone equipped with 220 grit
stones, is the best tool for this honing procedure. In
addition to deglazing, it will reduce taper and out-
of-round as well as removing light scuffing, scoring
or scratches. Usually a few strokes will clean up a
bore and maintain the required limits.
2. Deglazing of the cylinder walls may be done using
a quality commercially available cylinder surfacing
hone, recommended tool C-3501 or equivalent,
equipped with 280 grit stones, if the cylinder bore
is straight and round. 20–60 strokes depending on
the bore condition, will be sufficient to provide a
satisfactory surface. Use a light honing oil. Do not
use engine or transmission oil, mineral spirits
or kerosene. Inspect cylinder walls after each 20
strokes.
3. Honing should be done by moving the hone up and
down fast enough to get a cross-hatch pattern.
When hone marks intersect at 30-50 degrees, the
cross hatch angle is most satisfactory for proper seating of rings.
4. A controlled hone motor speed between 200–300 RPM is necessary to obtain the proper cross-hatch angle. The
number of up and down strokes per minute can be regulated to get the desired 40–60 degree angle. Faster up
and down strokes increase the cross-hatch angle.
5. After honing, it is necessary that the block be cleaned again to remove all traces of abrasive.
PM ENGINE 1.8L WORLD 9 - 1495
CAUTION: Ensure all abrasives are removed from engine parts after honing. It is recommended that a solu-
tion of soap and hot water be used with a brush and the parts then thoroughly dried. The bore can be
considered clean when it can be wiped clean with a white cloth and cloth remains clean. Oil the bores after
cleaning to prevent rusting.
CLEANING
Clean cylinder block thoroughly using a suitable cleaning solvent.
INSPECTION
ENGINE BLOCK
1. Clean cylinder block thoroughly and check all core
hole plugs for evidence of leaking.
2. If new core plugs are to be installed, (Refer to 9 -

LUBRICATION
DESCRIPTION
The lubrication system is a full-flow filtration, pressure feed type. The oil pump is chain driven by the crankshaft. Oil
pressure is controlled by a relief valve mounted inside the oil pump housing.
OPERATION
Engine oil is drawn up through the pickup tube and is pressurized by the oil pump and routed through the oil filter
to the main oil gallery running the length of the cylinder block. A diagonal hole in each bulkhead feeds oil to each
main bearing. Drilled passages within the crankshaft route oil from the main bearing journals to the connecting rod
journals. The main oil gallery also feeds oil pressure to the timing chain tensioner. A vertical hole at the number
three main bearing area routes pressurized oil through a restrictor up into the cylinder head. The restrictor that is
integral to the cylinder head gasket, provides increased oil flow to the main gallery. Upper engine lubrication is
provided by one main feed to the number three camshaft bearing cap. Oil is then routed through the rocker shafts
to the remaining camshaft bearing caps and rocker arms/hydraulic lash adjusters. Oil returning to the oil pan from
the pressurized components supplies lubrication to the valve stems. The cylinder bores and wrist pins are splash
lubricated from directed slots on the connecting rod thrust collar.

VALVE TIMING
DESCRIPTION
The timing drive system consists of the following:
• Timing Chain (2)
• Camshaft Sprockets (1,3)
• Crankshaft Sprocket
• Right Timing Chain Guide (Moveable) (6)
• Left Timing Chain Guide (Fixed) (4)
• Timing Chain Tensioner (5)
The camshaft sprockets are attached to the cam
phasers which are attached to the front of the cam-
shafts and is used with the timing chain and crank-
shaft sprocket to turn the camshafts. The camshaft
position sensors target is part of the camshafts and is
used with the camshaft position sensors to provide the
PCM with valvetrain position information.
The timing chain tensioner is installed in the right side
cardiagn.com
of the engine block. Using engine oil pressure, the
tensioner applies constant pressure to the right side
(movable) timing chain guide, which in turn applies pressure to the timing chain. Also as the tensioner extends, it
rachet locks in position to provide constant timing chain tension.

CYLINDER COMBUSTION PRESSURE LEAKAGE TEST
The combustion pressure leakage test provides an accurate means for determining engine condition.
Combustion pressure leakage testing will detect:
• Exhaust and intake valve leaks (improper seating).
• Leaks between adjacent cylinders or into water jacket.
• Any causes for combustion/compression pressure loss.
WARNING: DO NOT REMOVE THE PRESSURE CAP WITH THE SYSTEM HOT AND UNDER PRESSURE
BECAUSE SERIOUS BURNS FROM COOLANT CAN OCCUR.
Check the coolant level and fill as required. DO NOT install the pressure cap.
Start and operate the engine until it attains normal operating temperature, then turn the engine OFF.
Clean spark plug recesses with compressed air.
Remove the spark plugs.
Remove the oil filler cap.
Remove the air cleaner.
Calibrate the tester according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The shop air source for testing should maintain 483
kPa (70 psi) minimum, 1,379 kPa (200 psi) maximum, with 552 kPa (80 psi) recommended.
Perform the test procedures on each cylinder according to the tester manufacturer’s instructions. While testing, lis-
ten for pressurized air escaping through the throttle body, tailpipe and oil filler cap opening. Check for bubbles in the
coolant.
All gauge pressure indications should be equal, with no more than 25% leakage per cylinder.
FOR EXAMPLE: At 552 kPa (80 psi) input pressure, a minimum of 414 kPa (60 psi) should be maintained in the
cylinder.

ENGINE OIL LEAK INSPECTION
Begin with a thorough visual inspection of the engine, particularly at the area of the suspected leak. If an oil leak
source is not readily identifiable, the following steps should be followed:
1. Do not clean or degrease the engine at this time because some solvents may cause rubber to swell, temporarily
stopping the leak.
2. Add an oil soluble dye (use as recommended by manufacturer). Start the engine and let idle for approximately 15
minutes. Check the oil dipstick to make sure the dye is thoroughly mixed as indicated with a bright yellow color
under a black light.
3. Using a black light, inspect the entire engine for fluorescent dye, particularly at the suspected area of oil leak. If
the oil leak is found and identified, repair as necessary.
4. If dye is not observed, drive the vehicle at various speeds for approximately 24 km (15 miles), and repeat inspec-
tion.
5. If the oil leak source is not positively identified at this time, proceed with the air leak detection test method
as follows:
• Disconnect the fresh air hose (make-up air) at the cylinder head cover and plug or cap the nipple on the cover.
• Remove the PCV valve hose from the cylinder head cover. Cap or plug the PCV valve nipple on the cover.
• Attach an air hose with pressure gauge and regulator to the dipstick tube.
CAUTION: Do not subject the engine assembly to more than 20.6 kpa (3 PSI) of test pressure.
• Gradually apply air pressure from 1 psi to 2.5 psi maximum while applying soapy water at the suspected
source. Adjust the regulator to the suitable test pressure that provides the best bubbles which will pinpoint the
leak source. If the oil leak is detected and identified, repair per service manual procedures.
• If the leakage occurs at the crankshaft rear oil seal area, refer to the section, Inspection for Rear Seal Area
Leak.
6. If no leaks are detected, turn off the air supply. Remove the air hose, all plugs, and caps. Install the PCV valve
and fresh air hose (make-up air). Proceed to next step.
7. Clean the oil off the suspect oil leak area using a suitable solvent. Drive the vehicle at various speeds approx-
imately 24 km (15 miles). Inspect the engine for signs of an oil leak by using a black light.
9 - 1552 ENGINE 2.0L WORLD PM
NOTE: If oil leakage is observed at the dipstick tube to block location; remove the tube, clean and reseal
using MoparT Stud & Bearing Mount (press fit tube applications only), and for O-ring style tubes, remove
tube and replace the O-ring seal.
cardiagn.com
CAUTION: Do not exceed 20.6 kPa (3 psi).
5. If the leak is not detected, very slowly turn the crankshaft and watch for leakage. If a leak is detected between
the crankshaft and seal while slowly turning the crankshaft, it is possible the crankshaft seal surface is damaged.
The seal area on the crankshaft could have minor nicks or scratches that can be polished out with emery cloth.
CAUTION: Use extreme caution when crankshaft polishing is necessary to remove minor nicks and
scratches. The crankshaft seal flange is especially machined to complement the function of the rear oil seal.
6. For bubbles that remain steady with shaft rotation, no further inspection can be done until disassembled.
7. After the oil leak root cause and appropriate corrective action have been identified, replace component(s) as
necessary.
STANDARD PROCEDURE
REPAIR OF DAMAGED OR WORN THREADS
Damaged or worn threads (excluding spark plug and camshaft bearing cap attaching threads) can be repaired.
Essentially, this repair consists of drilling out worn or damaged threads, tapping the hole with a special Heli-Coil Tap,
(or equivalent) and installing an insert into the tapped hole. This brings the hole back to its original thread size.
CAUTION: Be sure that the tapped holes maintain the original center line.
Heli-Coil tools and inserts are readily available from automotive parts jobbers.
CAUTION: DO NOT use starter motor to rotate the engine, severe damage may occur.
1. Inspect air cleaner, induction system and intake manifold to insure system is dry and clear of foreign material.
2. Remove negative battery cable.
3. Place a shop towel around the spark plugs when removing them from the engine. This will catch any fluid that
may possibly be in the cylinder under pressure.
4. With all spark plugs removed, rotate engine crankshaft using a breaker bar and socket.
5. Identify the fluid in the cylinder(s) (i.e., coolant, fuel, oil or other).
PM ENGINE 2.0L WORLD 9 - 1553
6. Make sure all fluid has been removed from the cylinders. Inspect engine for damage (i.e., connecting rods, pis-
tons, valves, etc.)
7. Repair engine or components as necessary to prevent this problem from re-occurring.
CAUTION: Squirt approximately one teaspoon of oil into the cylinders, rotate engine to lubricate the cylin-
der walls to prevent damage on restart.

proper width is essential to obtain a leak-free gasket.
There are numerous types of form-in-place gasket materials that are used in the engine area. MoparT Engine RTV
GEN II, MoparT ATF-RTV, and MoparT Gasket Maker gasket materials, each have different properties and can not
be used in place of the other.
MOPART ENGINE RTV GEN II is used to seal components exposed to engine oil. This material is a specially
designed black silicone rubber RTV that retains adhesion and sealing properties when exposed to engine oil. Mois-
ture in the air causes the material to cure. This material is available in three ounce tubes and has a shelf life of one
year. After one year this material will not properly cure. Always inspect the package for the expiration date before
use.
MOPART ATF RTV is a specifically designed black silicone rubber RTV that retains adhesion and sealing properties
to seal components exposed to automatic transmission fluid, engine coolants, and moisture. This material is avail-
able in three ounce tubes and has a shelf life of one year. After one year this material will not properly cure. Always
inspect the package for the expiration date before use.
MOPART GASKET MAKER is an anaerobic type gasket material. The material cures in the absence of air when
squeezed between two metallic surfaces. It will not cure if left in the uncovered tube. The anaerobic material is for
use between two machined surfaces. Do not use on flexible metal flanges.
MOPART BED PLATE SEALANT is a unique (green-in-color) anaerobic type gasket material that is specially made
to seal the area between the bed plate and cylinder block without disturbing the bearing clearance or alignment of
these components. The material cures slowly in the absence of air when torqued between two metallic surfaces,
and will rapidly cure when heat is applied.
MOPART GASKET SEALANT is a slow drying, permanently soft sealer. This material is recommended for sealing
threaded fittings and gaskets against leakage of oil and coolant. Can be used on threaded and machined parts
under all temperatures. This material also will prevent corrosion. MoparT Gasket Sealant is available in a 13 oz.
aerosol can or 4oz./16 oz. can w/applicator.
SEALER APPLICATION
MoparT Gasket Maker material should be applied sparingly 1 mm (0.040 in.) diameter or less of sealant to one
gasket surface. Be certain the material surrounds each mounting hole. Excess material can easily be wiped off.
Components should be torqued in place within 15 minutes. The use of a locating dowel is recommended during
assembly to prevent smearing material off the location.
MoparT Engine RTV GEN II or ATF RTV gasket material should be applied in a continuous bead approximately 3
mm (0.120 in.) in diameter. All mounting holes must be circled. For corner sealing, a 3.17 or 6.35 mm (1/8 or 1/4 in.)
drop is placed in the center of the gasket contact area. Uncured sealant may be removed with a shop towel. Com-
ponents should be torqued in place while the sealant is still wet to the touch (within 10 minutes). The usage of a
locating dowel is recommended during assembly to prevent smearing material off the location.
9 - 1554 ENGINE 2.0L WORLD PM
MoparT Gasket Sealant in an aerosol can should be applied using a thin, even coat sprayed completely over both
surfaces to be joined, and both sides of a gasket. Then proceed with assembly. Material in a can w/applicator can
be brushed on evenly over the sealing surfaces.
cardiagn.com
Only use the following for cleaning gasket surfaces:
• Solvent or a commercially available gasket
remover
• Plastic or wood scraper
• Drill motor with 3M Roloc™ Bristle Disc (white or yellow)
CAUTION: Excessive pressure or high RPM (beyond the recommended speed), can damage the sealing sur-
faces. The mild (white, 120 grit) bristle disc is recommended. If necessary, the medium (yellow, 80 grit) bris-
tle disc may be used on cast iron surfaces with care.

ences in readings between the ends indicate the
amount of taper present. Record all readings taken. Compare clearance measurements to specs found in engine
specifications (Refer to 9 - ENGINE - SPECIFICATIONS). Plastigage generally is accompanied by two
scales. One scale is in inches, the other is a metric scale.
NOTE: Plastigage is available in a variety of clearance ranges. Use the most appropriate range for the spec-
ifications you are checking.

DESCRIPTION
The cross flow designed, aluminum cylinder head contains dual over-head camshafts with four valves per cylinder.
The valves are arranged in two in-line banks. The intake valves face toward the front of the vehicle. The exhaust
valves face the dash panel. The cylinder head incorporates powdered metal valve guides and seats. The cylinder
head is sealed to the block using a multi-layer steel head gasket and retaining bolts.
Integral oil galleries provide lubrication passages to the variable camshaft timing phasers, camshafts, and valve
mechanisms.
NOTE: Replacement cylinder heads will come complete with valves, seals, springs, retainers, keepers, lash
buckets, and camshafts.

STANDARD PROCEDURE
CYLINDER BORE HONING
1. Used carefully, a quality commercially available cyl-
inder bore resizing hone equipped with 220 grit
stones, is the best tool for this honing procedure. In
addition to deglazing, it will reduce taper and out-
of-round as well as removing light scuffing, scoring
or scratches. Usually a few strokes will clean up a
bore and maintain the required limits.
2. Deglazing of the cylinder walls may be done using
a quality commercially available cylinder surfacing
hone, recommended tool C-3501 or equivalent,
equipped with 280 grit stones, if the cylinder bore
is straight and round. 20–60 strokes depending on
the bore condition, will be sufficient to provide a
satisfactory surface. Use a light honing oil. Do not
use engine or transmission oil, mineral spirits
or kerosene. Inspect cylinder walls after each 20
strokes.
3. Honing should be done by moving the hone up and
down fast enough to get a cross-hatch pattern.
When hone marks intersect at 30-50 degrees, the
cross hatch angle is most satisfactory for proper seating of rings.
4. A controlled hone motor speed between 200–300 RPM is necessary to obtain the proper cross-hatch angle. The
number of up and down strokes per minute can be regulated to get the desired 40–60 degree angle. Faster up
and down strokes increase the cross-hatch angle.
5. After honing, it is necessary that the block be cleaned again to remove all traces of abrasive.
9 - 1602 ENGINE 2.0L WORLD PM
CAUTION: Ensure all abrasives are removed from engine parts after honing. It is recommended that a solu-
tion of soap and hot water be used with a brush and the parts then thoroughly dried. The bore can be
considered clean when it can be wiped clean with a white cloth and cloth remains clean. Oil the bores after
cleaning to prevent rusting.
CLEANING
Clean cylinder block thoroughly using a suitable cleaning solvent.
INSPECTION

ENGINE MOUNTING
DESCRIPTION
The engine mounting system consists of a four-point system utilizing two load-carrying mounts and two torque con-
trolling mounts. The load-carrying mounts are located on each frame rail. The right mount is a hydro-elastic mount
and left mount is a conventional elastomeric isolator. The two torque controlling mounts are attached to a fore/aft
member and the front and rear of the engine.
OPERATION
The four-point engine mounting system minimizes the transmission of structure-borne engine noise to the passenger
compartment. The load-carrying right and left mounts dampen and isolate vertical motion and vibration. The front
and rear mount absorb torque reaction forces and torsional vibrations.

LUBRICATION
DESCRIPTION
The lubrication system is a full-flow filtration, pressure feed type. The oil pump is mounted in the ladder frame and
chain driven by the crankshaft.
OPERATION
Engine oil drawn up through the pickup tube and is pressurized by the oil pump and routed through the full-flow filter
to the main oil gallery running the length of the cylinder block. A diagonal hole in each bulkhead feeds oil to each
main bearing. Drilled passages within the crankshaft route oil from main bearing journals to connecting rod journals.
Balance shaft lubrication is provided through an internal oil passage. A vertical hole at the number one bulkhead
routes pressurized oil through a filter screen and head gasket up to the cylinder head. The oil then divides into three
passages; one to the intake cam phaser, one to the exhaust cam phaser and one to the camshafts. The passage
to the camshafts divides to feed both of the hollow camshafts at the second cam journal.The rest of cam journals
are feed oil through the hollow camshafts. The #1 cam journals are feed oil through the VVT oil passages. Oil
passages to the phasers are directed through the OCV (oil control valves) to the #1 journals. The oil then flows
through the camshafts then to the cam phasers. Oil returning to the pan from pressurized components supplies
lubrication to the valve stems, cam lobes, and tappets. Cylinder bores and wrist pins are splash lubricated from
directed slots on the connecting rod thrust collars.

CYLINDER COMBUSTION PRESSURE LEAKAGE TEST
The combustion pressure leakage test provides an accurate means for determining engine condition.
Combustion pressure leakage testing will detect:
• Exhaust and intake valve leaks (improper seating).
• Leaks between adjacent cylinders or into water jacket.
• Any causes for combustion/compression pressure loss.
WARNING: DO NOT REMOVE THE PRESSURE CAP WITH THE SYSTEM HOT AND UNDER PRESSURE
BECAUSE SERIOUS BURNS FROM COOLANT CAN OCCUR.
Check the coolant level and fill as required. DO NOT install the pressure cap.
Start and operate the engine until it attains normal operating temperature, then turn the engine OFF.
Clean spark plug recesses with compressed air.
Remove the spark plugs.
Remove the oil filler cap.
Remove the air cleaner.
Calibrate the tester according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The shop air source for testing should maintain 483
kPa (70 psi) minimum, 1,379 kPa (200 psi) maximum, with 552 kPa (80 psi) recommended.
Perform the test procedures on each cylinder according to the tester manufacturer’s instructions. While testing, lis-
ten for pressurized air escaping through the throttle body, tailpipe and oil filler cap opening. Check for bubbles in the
coolant.
All gauge pressure indications should be equal, with no more than 25% leakage per cylinder.
FOR EXAMPLE: At 552 kPa (80 psi) input pressure, a minimum of 414 kPa (60 psi) should be maintained in the
cylinder.
cardiagn.com
ENGINE OIL LEAK INSPECTION
Begin with a thorough visual inspection of the engine, particularly at the area of the suspected leak. If an oil leak
source is not readily identifiable, the following steps should be followed:
1. Do not clean or degrease the engine at this time because some solvents may cause rubber to swell, temporarily
stopping the leak.
2. Add an oil soluble dye (use as recommended by manufacturer). Start the engine and let idle for approximately 15
minutes. Check the oil dipstick to make sure the dye is thoroughly mixed as indicated with a bright yellow color
under a black light.
3. Using a black light, inspect the entire engine for fluorescent dye, particularly at the suspected area of oil leak. If
the oil leak is found and identified, repair as necessary.
4. If dye is not observed, drive the vehicle at various speeds for approximately 24 km (15 miles), and repeat inspec-
tion.
5. If the oil leak source is not positively identified at this time, proceed with the air leak detection test method
as follows:
• Disconnect the fresh air hose (make-up air) at the cylinder head cover and plug or cap the nipple on the cover.
• Remove the PCV valve hose from the cylinder head cover. Cap or plug the PCV valve nipple on the cover.
• Attach an air hose with pressure gauge and regulator to the dipstick tube.
CAUTION: Do not subject the engine assembly to more than 20.6 kpa (3 PSI) of test pressure.
• Gradually apply air pressure from 1 psi to 2.5 psi maximum while applying soapy water at the suspected
source. Adjust the regulator to the suitable test pressure that provides the best bubbles which will pinpoint the
leak source. If the oil leak is detected and identified, repair per service manual procedures.
• If the leakage occurs at the crankshaft rear oil seal area, refer to the section, Inspection for Rear Seal Area
Leak.
6. If no leaks are detected, turn off the air supply. Remove the air hose, all plugs, and caps. Install the PCV valve
and fresh air hose (make-up air). Proceed to next step.
7. Clean the oil off the suspect oil leak area using a suitable solvent. Drive the vehicle at various speeds approx-
imately 24 km (15 miles). Inspect the engine for signs of an oil leak by using a black light.
9 - 1662 ENGINE 2.4L WORLD PM
NOTE: If oil leakage is observed at the dipstick tube to block location; remove the tube, clean and reseal
using MoparT Stud & Bearing Mount (press fit tube applications only), and for O-ring style tubes, remove
tube and replace the O-ring seal.
cardiagn.com
CAUTION: Do not exceed 20.6 kPa (3 psi).
5. If the leak is not detected, very slowly turn the crankshaft and watch for leakage. If a leak is detected between
the crankshaft and seal while slowly turning the crankshaft, it is possible the crankshaft seal surface is damaged.
The seal area on the crankshaft could have minor nicks or scratches that can be polished out with emery cloth.
CAUTION: Use extreme caution when crankshaft polishing is necessary to remove minor nicks and
scratches. The crankshaft seal flange is especially machined to complement the function of the rear oil seal.
6. For bubbles that remain steady with shaft rotation, no further inspection can be done until disassembled.
7. After the oil leak root cause and appropriate corrective action have been identified, replace component(s) as
necessary.
STANDARD PROCEDURE
REPAIR OF DAMAGED OR WORN THREADS
Damaged or worn threads (excluding spark plug and camshaft bearing cap attaching threads) can be repaired.
Essentially, this repair consists of drilling out worn or damaged threads, tapping the hole with a special Heli-Coil Tap,
(or equivalent) and installing an insert into the tapped hole. This brings the hole back to its original thread size.
CAUTION: Be sure that the tapped holes maintain the original center line.
Heli-Coil tools and inserts are readily available from automotive parts jobbers.
CAUTION: DO NOT use starter motor to rotate the engine, severe damage may occur.
1. Inspect air cleaner, induction system and intake manifold to insure system is dry and clear of foreign material.
2. Remove negative battery cable.
3. Place a shop towel around the spark plugs when removing them from the engine. This will catch any fluid that
may possibly be in the cylinder under pressure.
4. With all spark plugs removed, rotate engine crankshaft using a breaker bar and socket.
5. Identify the fluid in the cylinder(s) (i.e., coolant, fuel, oil or other).
PM ENGINE 2.4L WORLD 9 - 1663
6. Make sure all fluid has been removed from the cylinders. Inspect engine for damage (i.e., connecting rods, pis-
tons, valves, etc.)
7. Repair engine or components as necessary to prevent this problem from re-occurring.
CAUTION: Squirt approximately one teaspoon of oil into the cylinders, rotate engine to lubricate the cylin-
der walls to prevent damage on restart.

proper width is essential to obtain a leak-free gasket.
There are numerous types of form-in-place gasket materials that are used in the engine area. MoparT Engine RTV
GEN II, MoparT ATF-RTV, and MoparT Gasket Maker gasket materials, each have different properties and can not
be used in place of the other.
MOPART ENGINE RTV GEN II is used to seal components exposed to engine oil. This material is a specially
designed black silicone rubber RTV that retains adhesion and sealing properties when exposed to engine oil. Mois-
ture in the air causes the material to cure. This material is available in three ounce tubes and has a shelf life of one
year. After one year this material will not properly cure. Always inspect the package for the expiration date before
use.
MOPART ATF RTV is a specifically designed black silicone rubber RTV that retains adhesion and sealing properties
to seal components exposed to automatic transmission fluid, engine coolants, and moisture. This material is avail-
able in three ounce tubes and has a shelf life of one year. After one year this material will not properly cure. Always
inspect the package for the expiration date before use.
MOPART GASKET MAKER is an anaerobic type gasket material. The material cures in the absence of air when
squeezed between two metallic surfaces. It will not cure if left in the uncovered tube. The anaerobic material is for
use between two machined surfaces. Do not use on flexible metal flanges.
MOPART BED PLATE SEALANT is a unique (green-in-color) anaerobic type gasket material that is specially made
to seal the area between the bed plate and cylinder block without disturbing the bearing clearance or alignment of
these components. The material cures slowly in the absence of air when torqued between two metallic surfaces,
and will rapidly cure when heat is applied.
MOPART GASKET SEALANT is a slow drying, permanently soft sealer. This material is recommended for sealing
threaded fittings and gaskets against leakage of oil and coolant. Can be used on threaded and machined parts
under all temperatures. This material also will prevent corrosion. MoparT Gasket Sealant is available in a 13 oz.
aerosol can or 4oz./16 oz. can w/applicator.
SEALER APPLICATION
MoparT Gasket Maker material should be applied sparingly 1 mm (0.040 in.) diameter or less of sealant to one
gasket surface. Be certain the material surrounds each mounting hole. Excess material can easily be wiped off.
Components should be torqued in place within 15 minutes. The use of a locating dowel is recommended during
assembly to prevent smearing material off the location.
MoparT Engine RTV GEN II or ATF RTV gasket material should be applied in a continuous bead approximately 3
mm (0.120 in.) in diameter. All mounting holes must be circled. For corner sealing, a 3.17 or 6.35 mm (1/8 or 1/4 in.)
drop is placed in the center of the gasket contact area. Uncured sealant may be removed with a shop towel. Com-
ponents should be torqued in place while the sealant is still wet to the touch (within 10 minutes). The usage of a
locating dowel is recommended during assembly to prevent smearing material off the location.
9 - 1664 ENGINE 2.4L WORLD PM
MoparT Gasket Sealant in an aerosol can should be applied using a thin, even coat sprayed completely over both
surfaces to be joined, and both sides of a gasket. Then proceed with assembly. Material in a can w/applicator can
be brushed on evenly over the sealing surfaces.
cardiagn.com
Only use the following for cleaning gasket surfaces:
• Solvent or a commercially available gasket
remover
• Plastic or wood scraper
• Drill motor with 3M Roloc™ Bristle Disc (white or yellow)
CAUTION: Excessive pressure or high RPM (beyond the recommended speed), can damage the sealing sur-
faces. The mild (white, 120 grit) bristle disc is recommended. If necessary, the medium (yellow, 80 grit) bris-
tle disc may be used on cast iron surfaces with care.

ences in readings between the ends indicate the
amount of taper present. Record all readings taken. Compare clearance measurements to specs found in engine
specifications (Refer to 9 - ENGINE - SPECIFICATIONS). Plastigage generally is accompanied by two
scales. One scale is in inches, the other is a metric scale.
NOTE: Plastigage is available in a variety of clearance ranges. Use the most appropriate range for the spec-
ifications you are checking.

CYLINDER HEAD
DESCRIPTION
The cross flow designed, aluminum cylinder head contains dual over-head camshafts with four valves per cylinder.
The valves are arranged in two in-line banks. The intake valves face toward the front of the vehicle. The exhaust
valves face the dash panel. The cylinder head incorporates powdered metal valve guides and seats. The cylinder
head is sealed to the block using a multi-layer steel head gasket and retaining bolts.
Integral oil galleries provide lubrication passages to the variable camshaft timing phasers, camshafts, and valve
mechanisms.
NOTE: Replacement cylinder heads will come complete with valves, seals, springs, retainers, keepers, lash
buckets, and camshafts.
cardiagn.com
Possible indications of the cylinder head gasket leaking between adjacent cylinders are:
• Loss of engine power
• Engine misfiring
• Poor fuel economy
Possible indications of the cylinder head gasket leaking between a cylinder and an adjacent water jacket are:
• Engine overheating
• Loss of coolant
• Excessive steam (white smoke) emitting from exhaust
• Coolant foaming
With the engine cool, remove the coolant pressure cap. Start the engine and allow it to warm up until thermostat
opens.
If a large combustion/compression pressure leak exists, bubbles will be visible in the coolant.
WARNING: WITH COOLING SYSTEM TESTER IN PLACE, PRESSURE WILL BUILD UP FAST. EXCESSIVE
PRESSURE BUILT UP, BY CONTINUOUS ENGINE OPERATION, MUST BE RELEASED TO A SAFE PRESSURE
POINT. NEVER PERMIT PRESSURE TO EXCEED 138 kPa (20 psi).
Install Cooling System Tester 7700 or equivalent to pressure cap neck. Start the engine and observe the tester’s
pressure gauge. If gauge pulsates with every power stroke of a cylinder a combustion pressure leak is evident.
PM ENGINE 2.4L WORLD 9 - 1687

ENGINE BLOCK
DESCRIPTION
The die cast aluminum cylinder block is a two-piece assembly, consisting of the cylinder block and ladder frame.
The block is an open deck design with cast in place cast iron cylinder liners. The cast iron cylinder liners are
recessed below the aluminum deck surface. The ladder frame bolts to the cylinder block and does not incorporate
the main bearing caps. This design offers a much stronger lower end and increased cylinder block and transaxle
rigidity. The rear oil seal retainer is integral with the block and ladder frame. The ladder frame and block are ser-
viced as an assembly.
The engine build date is located on the bottom of the
ladder frame just behind the oil pan. The date can be
seen with the oil pan in place.

STANDARD PROCEDURE
CYLINDER BORE HONING
1. Used carefully, a quality commercially available cyl-
inder bore resizing hone equipped with 220 grit
stones, is the best tool for this honing procedure. In
addition to deglazing, it will reduce taper and out-
of-round as well as removing light scuffing, scoring
or scratches. Usually a few strokes will clean up a
bore and maintain the required limits.
2. Deglazing of the cylinder walls may be done using
a quality commercially available cylinder surfacing
hone, recommended tool C-3501 or equivalent,
equipped with 280 grit stones, if the cylinder bore
is straight and round. 20–60 strokes depending on
the bore condition, will be sufficient to provide a
satisfactory surface. Use a light honing oil. Do not
use engine or transmission oil, mineral spirits
or kerosene. Inspect cylinder walls after each 20
strokes.
3. Honing should be done by moving the hone up and
down fast enough to get a cross-hatch pattern.
When hone marks intersect at 30-50 degrees, the
cross hatch angle is most satisfactory for proper seating of rings.
4. A controlled hone motor speed between 200–300 RPM is necessary to obtain the proper cross-hatch angle. The
number of up and down strokes per minute can be regulated to get the desired 40–60 degree angle. Faster up
and down strokes increase the cross-hatch angle.
5. After honing, it is necessary that the block be cleaned again to remove all traces of abrasive.
9 - 1712 ENGINE 2.4L WORLD PM
CAUTION: Ensure all abrasives are removed from engine parts after honing. It is recommended that a solu-
tion of soap and hot water be used with a brush and the parts then thoroughly dried. The bore can be
considered clean when it can be wiped clean with a white cloth and cloth remains clean. Oil the bores after
cleaning to prevent rusting.
CLEANING
Clean cylinder block thoroughly using a suitable cleaning solvent.
INSPECTION
ENGINE BLOCK
1. Clean cylinder block thoroughly and check all core
hole plugs for evidence of leaking.
2. If new core plugs are to be installed, (Refer to 9 -
ENGINE - STANDARD PROCEDURE - ENGINE
CORE AND OIL GALLERY PLUGS).
3. Examine block and cylinder bores for cracks or
fractures.
cardiagn.com
4. Check block deck surfaces for flatness. Deck sur-
face must be within service limit of 0.050 mm
(0.002 in.).

ENGINE MOUNTING
DESCRIPTION
The engine mounting system consists of a four-point system utilizing two load-carrying mounts and two torque con-
trolling mounts. The load-carrying mounts are located on each frame rail. The right mount is a hydro-elastic mount
and left mount is a conventional elastomeric isolator. The two torque controlling mounts are attached to a fore/aft
member and the front and rear of the engine.
OPERATION
The four-point engine mounting system minimizes the transmission of structure-borne engine noise to the passenger
compartment. The load-carrying right and left mounts dampen and isolate vertical motion and vibration. The front
and rear mount absorb torque reaction forces and torsional vibrations.

LUBRICATION
DESCRIPTION
The lubrication system is a full-flow filtration, pressure feed type. The oil pump is mounted in the ladder frame and
chain driven by the crankshaft.
OPERATION
Engine oil drawn up through the pickup tube and is pressurized by the oil pump and routed through the full-flow filter
to the main oil gallery running the length of the cylinder block. A diagonal hole in each bulkhead feeds oil to each
main bearing. Drilled passages within the crankshaft route oil from main bearing journals to connecting rod journals.
Balance shaft lubrication is provided through an internal oil passage. A vertical hole at the number one bulkhead
routes pressurized oil through a filter screen and head gasket up to the cylinder head. The oil then divides into three
passages; one to the intake cam phaser, one to the exhaust cam phaser and one to the camshafts. The passage
to the camshafts divides to feed both of the hollow camshafts at the second cam journal.The rest of cam journals
are feed oil through the hollow camshafts. The #1 cam journals are feed oil through the VVT oil passages. Oil
passages to the phasers are directed through the OCV (oil control valves) to the #1 journals. The oil then flows
through the camshafts then to the cam phasers. Oil returning to the pan from pressurized components supplies
lubrication to the valve stems, cam lobes, and tappets. Cylinder bores and wrist pins are splash lubricated from
directed slots on the connecting rod thrust collars.
