ENGINE UNIT


  1. CONSTRUCTION


    1. Connecting rod sub-assemblies that have been forged for high strength are used for weight reduction.

    2. Knock pins are used at the mating surfaces of the connecting rod caps to minimize the shifting of the connecting rod caps during assembly.

    3. Plastic region tightening bolts are used for the connecting rods.

    4. Aluminum bearings are used for the connecting rod bearings.

    5. The connecting rod bearings are reduced in width to reduce friction.

    6. The lining surfaces of the connecting rod bearing are micro-grooved to achieve an optimal amount of oil clearance. As a result, cold-engine cranking performance has been improved and engine vibration has been reduced.
