Since the middle of 1995, a 2.0 liter engine has been installed on cars. The engine has the designation "X20 SE". It is a further development of the engine "C20 NE" with an overhead camshaft. This engine has a Bosch-Motronic M1.5.4 injection control system. The ignition system is the so-called direct, i.e. does not have a distributor and is controlled by the ignition module. The engine has knock control and an exhaust gas recirculation system (system "EGR"). The system is electronically controlled and sends up to 15% of the exhaust gases to the intake into the combustion chambers. This engine has an oil cooler. Simultaneously, the Campo and Brava models were released.
Since 1997, both of these models have been redesigned to reduce engine noise levels. To do this, a bearing bridge was installed in the cylinder block and a so-called bearing oil pan was used. The 2.2 liter engine had a redesigned combustion chamber in the cylinder head. The air mixing system was eliminated from this engine. The control characteristic of the injection control unit has been retained. A manual five-speed gearbox with a two-speed transfer case is installed to reduce the number of revolutions of the rear wheels when driving over rough terrain. The front axle is engaged with a short control lever if the driving conditions require it.
The design features of individual models are explained in the description process.
Attention! The vehicle has an alarm device that is activated when the battery is disconnected. It is necessary to disable the security alarm when performing any work related to disconnecting the battery.
Due to the different versions of the engine, namely the engine with one camshaft located at the top (OHC) and engine with two camshafts located at the top (DOHC), removal and installation of the engine are described separately depending on the versions, which facilitates the process of understanding.
For motors of both versions, attention must be paid to the laying of cables, pipelines, etc. Therefore, it is recommended to mark the disconnected plugs and cables accordingly, if their subsequent docking may be ambiguous. Adhesive tape is handy for this purpose. The tape is glued to the end of the cable and a digital or letter marking is inscribed on it with a ballpoint pen. During subsequent docking, it is only necessary to connect the cable in accordance with its marking.
Encoded radio. When carrying out the work described in this section, related to disconnecting the battery, it is necessary to know the radio receiver code in order to use it again to restore the radio receiver to working condition later.
