Use oil gauge to measure the gasoline engine oil level in the oil pan. Measure in three minutes
after the gasoline engine has stopped, take out the oil gauge, wipe the gasoline engine oil with
clean cloth, and then insert into the oil pan to measure the level of the gasoline engine oil. The
level of the gasoline engine oil should be between “F” and “L” of the oil gauge; if the oil level is
at or below the lower limit, refill the gasoline engine oil to the upper limit. Before driving and after
driving 300km~500km every time, check the level of the gasoline engine oil.

3. Filling and replacing gasoline engine oil

Replace the gasoline engine oil once after driving 8,000km on the asphalt or cement road; if driv-
ing on sand road or under other poor conditions, check regularly and replace according to the oil
quality; however, replace at least once every 5,000km.

When replace the gasoline engine oil, warm up the gasoline engine for ten minutes, shut down
and open the fill inlet cap, loosen the oil drain plug in the bottom of the oil pan, drain the oil and
tighten the oil drain plug. Fill in 3.0L new gasoline engine oil through the fill inlet, and tighten the
fill inlet cap (see Fig.2-1).

25 Checking and adjusting the valve gear


The valve gear requires regular check and maintenance. Once the timing belt has failures such
as break and sliding gear, it may cause damage to valve, piston and camshaft. Therefore, check
the timing belt and replace immediately if there is any damage such as crack, wear and fiber cloth
aliquation; it is also required to replace every 100,000km.

1. Checking and adjusting installation position of timing gear

Remove the front cover of the engine, rotate the crankshaft clockwise, so that the grooves in the
crankshaft timing pulley aligns to the bar at the boss of the engine oil pump (see Fig.2-3); at this
time, the two horizontal line marks on the two camshaft pulleys should be aligned, and maintain
level; please note that the camshaft pulley mark I on the intake side is inward, and the camshaft
pulley mark E on the exhaust side is also inward (see Fig.2-3). Otherwise, adjust till they are
aligned. At this moment, the primary piston of the gasoline engine (on the side of crankshaft tim-
ing pulley) should be on the top dead center of the compression stroke.

26 Maintenance of positive crankcase ventilation valve (3CV valve)


PCV valve consists of valve body, valve, valve cover and spring, and can’t be decomposed. Its
main role is to import the air from crankcase to intake manifold through PCV valve. Remove the
valve every 50,000km, and ask service personnel to clean and check. Replace with new valve if
the valve is stuck or doesn’t ventilate.

27 Checking and maintenance of electrical system


The electrical system of the EFI gasoline engine uses electronic control unit (ECU) as the control
center. Measure the operating parameters of the gasoline engine with the sensors installed on
different positions of the gasoline engine, and control the fuel injection and engine spark advance
precisely according to the control programs set by the gasoline engine ECU, to ensure that the
gasoline engine can always maintain the optimal state in different conditions.

ƾƾ

If the gasoline engine has any fault, do not cut off the power supply of ECU, or else the

2 Maintenance of air filter


The air filter is used to filter air entering the cylinder; if the air filter is poor in filtration, it will ac-
celerate the wear of gasoline engine and shorten the service life. Dirty air filter will affect the air
intake of the gasoline engine, resulting in inadequate air intake and reduced power.

Take out and clean the element of the air filter regularly. Clean the element once every 10,000km
and replace every 40,000km on asphalt road; clean once every 2,500km and replace every
40,000km on sand road; in dusty environment, replace the element more often.

29 Maintenance of fuel filter


Under normal circumstances, the fuel filter should be replaced every 8,000km. If the fuel is dirty,
replace the filter timely to avoid affecting fuel supply or causing fuel injector blockage.

210 Maintenance of fuel vapor recovery system


The fuel vapor recovery system is used to collect the fuel vapor discharged when the fuel tank
ventilates, in order to avoid discharging into the atmosphere and protecting the environment.
Please regularly check whether the line and vent of the fuel vapor recovery system are smooth,
and all lines shouldn’t leak, in order to ensure normal working of the system.

ƾƾƾ

Follow the precautions below before any maintenance of the fuel system:

1. Disconnect the cathode wire of the battery.

2. Smoking is prohibited. Set up a “No Smoking” sign near the operation area.

3. Easy-to-use CO2 fire extinguisher is required.

4. Keep in well-ventilated place, and stay away from open flame.

5. To relieve the pressure of the fuel vapor in the fuel tank, remove the filler inlet cap and then
reinstall the cap.

6. Even when the gasoline engine stops running, the fuel line is still under high pressure; if the
fuel line is loosened or disconnected immediately, it may cause fuel injection at the opening.
Therefore, make sure that the pressure has been relieved before loosening or disconnect-
ing the fuel line.

7. When the fuel line is removed, there will be a small amount of fuel spillage. Therefore,
place the empty fuel container under the fuel filter or enwrap the fuel filter with waste cloth,
to let the fuel flow into the empty container or absorbed by the waste cloth. Put the waste
cloth after oil absorption into specified container.

8. The fuel line should be connected and fastened properly.

9. If the fuel line has any crack, damage or excessive bending, please replace immediately.

10. The clamp of the fuel line is disposable. Reuse is prohibited.

11. Take out the fuel pump from the fuel tank. Do not connect the power of the fuel tank when it
is exposed to air, to avoid sparks and resulting in fire.

211 Maintenance of catalytic converter


The exhaust system of the gasoline engine is equipped with catalytic converter, which is used to
process the exhaust of the gasoline engine and effectively catalyze the harmful gases in the ex-
haust. Good gasoline engine management system can not only maintain the normal operation of
gasoline engine, but also ensure the efficient working of catalytic converter, and extend the ser-
vice life of the catalytic converter.

ƾƾƾ

The catalytic converter is easily damaged due to overheating when the gasoline engine is work-
ing. Pay attention to the following to protect the catalytic converter:

1. Only use grade 93 or higher unleaded gasoline.

2. Ensure good resistance to pressure ( • 0.3MPa) and anti-leak characteristics of the fuel
supply system lines.

3. Prevent combustion under the condition of cylinder fuel shortage.

4. Avoid burning engine oil.

5. Do not drive when the fuel is insufficient, or else it may damage the electric fuel pump when
the fuel is run out.

6. Prevent the exhaust system leaking, and ensure particularly that the connection between
exhaust manifold in front of the catalytic and the muffle shouldn’t leak.

7. Do not start the gasoline engine by pushing or trailing the automobile forcibly; if the battery
voltage is low, start the gasoline engine with the secondary battery.

8. Do not perform system ignition function diagnosis by removing any spark plug or high volt-
age damper wire when the gasoline engine is running.

9. If the gasoline engine is unstable at idle or can’t start the gasoline engine after a long time,
do not run the gasoline engine forcibly.

10. If the performance of the gasoline engine drops significantly or the gasoline engine doesn’t
operate properly, e.g. fuel supply system or ignition system doesn’t work normally, shut
down the engine immediately. If the engine can’t be shut down immediately, slow down and
ask qualified maintenance center or our After-service Department for inspection.

Section  Gasoline Engine Troubleshooting


1 Considerations for gasoline engine use and maintenance
1. Use 12V battery only; do not use AC power supply.

2. Connect the anode and cathode of the battery properly to avoid damaging the electronic
components.

3. Do not remove the battery, connecting cable and connector when the gasoline engine is running.

4. The ambient temperature of ECU shouldn’t exceed 80°C.

5. Remove the battery from the body before welding operation.

6. Take out the fuel pump from the fuel tank. Do not connect the power of the electric fuel tank
when it is exposed to air, to avoid sparks and resulting in fire.

7. Connect the positive pole and negative pole of the electric fuel pump properly.

8. Do not install devices that may cause radio interference (e.g. radio antenna) near the ECU
to avoid interference.

9. Do not let water enter into the gasoline engine or spill on the electronic circuit when repair
or clean the gasoline engine in rainy days.

10. It is prohibited to carry out the test by discharging the mixed gas from the cylinder into the
exhaust pipe without burning.

11. The fuel pressure is high. Relieve the pressure before repairing the line: remove the insur-
ance device of the fuel pump, start the gasoline engine and run at idle until stall.

12. Before removing any component, remember to turn off the ignition switch and disconnect
the cathode cable of the battery.

13. Since catalytic converter is used, it is required to use unleaded gasoline; if leaded or low-
leaded gasoline is used, it will damage the catalytic converter and weaken the performance
of the purification system.

14. It is not allowed to test the electrical signal by piercing the wire wrapping.

15. The fuel line clamp is disposable. Reuse is prohibited to prevent fuel leakage.

16. Since high voltage ignition coil is used, do not touch with hands directly when the gasoline
engine is working.

17. The idle adjustment of the gasoline engine is finished by the EFI system, and the idle sys-
tem doesn’t require mechanical maintenance.

18. Before the first start after ECU or idle regulator is replaced, turn the ignition switch to ON
and start after 20 seconds, so that the system or idle regulator will adapt.

19. The electronic control unit will provide appropriate air-fuel ratio for the gasoline engine in
any case to make the gasoline engine work normally. Therefore, do not operate any mecha-
nism on the gasoline engine (including the accelerator) when it is started.

20. The system integrates fail-safe function. However, the gasoline engine isn’t suitable for
long-term continuous operation; therefore, it is necessary to eliminate the fault immediately
when the MIL is lit, to avoid more serious damage of the gasoline engine.

Section 5 Gasoline Engine Sealing and Unsealing


51 Gasoline engine sealing
The gasoline engine should be stored in a warehouse, which is clean, dry, ventilated and without
corrosive gas. The period is three months. If it will be stored for longer time, please take the fol-
lowing sealing measures:

1. Fill 2.5L anti-rust lubricant into the gasoline engine, and then unscrew the spark plug of
each cylinder, to keep all the pistons of the gasoline engine between the top dead center
and bottom dead center. Fill 0.006L anti-rust lubricant into each cylinder, and drive the gas-
oline engine with the starter to run for 3~4 times, about 15 seconds each time.

2. Unscrew the oil drain plug in the oil pan to drain the anti-rust lubricant, reinstall the oil drain
plug and spark plug and torque with specified torque.

3. Drain the coolant, remove the injector nozzle, clean and seal with dust cover, and then plug
the exhaust pipe, throttle opening, gasoline engine water inlet/outlet, and injector hole with
wax paper or plastic cover.

4. Put the gasoline engine into the box.

52 Gasoline engine unsealing


1. Clear the oil outside of the gasoline engine.

2. Unseal all sealed holes.

3. Unscrew the spark plug, idle the gasoline engine and drain the anti-rust lubricant in the cyl-
inder.

4. Fill in gasoline engine oil.

5. Fill in coolant.

6. Start the gasoline engine as described in this manual.

When measuring the emission, the engine shall be in heating state, i.e., the coolant shall be
85°C±5°C.

Optimum temperature of three-way catalytic converter: 375°C~850°C, tolerable temperature in


a short time is 970°C. Therefore, when measuring the emission, the engine shall be in heating
state. Exhaust gas temperature shall not be less than 375°C.

7 Driving

During the course of driving, keep the coolant temperature between 85°C±5°C. At medium speed,
engine oil pressure shall not be less than 300kPa.

8 Stop

After the engine runs, especially after it runs at high speed with high load, it cannot stop immedi-
ately. It shall run idly for 3~5 and then stop.

9. Warming up in winter

In winter, because the temperature is very low, engine oil viscosity increases. Now, the engine
lubrication is worse than that in summer. Therefore, after the engine starts, the vehicle cannot
drive immediately and the engine cannot run at high speed with high load. It shall run idly for 10
minutes for warming up to increase engine oil temperature and coolant temperature. The engine
is enough lubricated and then the vehicle drives.

Section 2 New engine running-in


Service life of the engine is greatly related to the operation at initial stage. New engine shall run in
according to running-in specifications.

The engine on the vehicle shall run in according to Operator Manual of the vehicle. Please check
and maintain the engine according to the following requirements during the course of running-in:

1 Check

Check if engine oil, coolant, gasoline and battery electrolyte is sufficient. If it is insufficient, refill it
in time.

2 Road

It would be best to drive on cement or asphalt roads. Try to avoid driving on a muddy or sandy
road.

3 Maintenance

After running-in, the engine shall be maintained as follows.

2. Engine oil level measurement

Measure engine oil on oil pan with an oil level gauge. After the engine runs for 3 minutes, mea-
sure it and take out the oil level gauge, wipe off engine oil on it with a cleaning cloth, then insert it
on oil pan to measure engine oil level. Engine oil level shall be between two points of the oil level
gauge. If oil level is close or lower than lower limit, please refill engine oil to upper limit. Before
driving and every 300km~500 km, check engine oil level.

3. Fill and replace engine oil

Replace engine oil every 8000km on asphalt or cement road; it is necessary to check frequently
on extremely sandy soil roads. Replace it more frequently. But, replace it every 5000km.

When replacing engine oil, warm up the engine for 10 minutes, open filler cap after stopping, un-
screw drain plug on the bottom of oil pan to discharge oil and then tighten drain plug. Fill new en-
gine oil 5.0L through oil filler cap and tighten oil filler cap. (See figure 4-1)

Start the engine and run for 5 minutes. Check if drain plug leaks. Then shut down and wait for 5
minutes, check oil level. If oil is insufficient, refill oil to upper limit of oil level gauge.

Normally, when power switch (key) is turned to “ON” position, engine oil pressure indicator lamp
is lit, which means no engine oil pressure; turn the switch to “START” position, and then the en-
gine goes into idling state. Now, engine oil pressure indicator lamp goes out automatically, which
means engine oil pressure is normal. If engine oil pressure indicator lamp does not go out, it
means engine oil pressure in engine lubrication system is abnormal. It is necessary to stop the
engine to check if engine oil is sufficient.

Chapter 5 Main fault and troubleshooting method of the engine


Section 1 Notes for engine operation and maintenance
1. Only 12V battery can be used. AC power supply is forbidden.

2. Positive and negative electrodes of the battery shall not be reversed to avoid electronic ele-
ments.

3. When the engine is running, do not dismantle the battery, connect wire and a connector.

4. Operating ambient temperature of ECU shall not exceed 80°C.

5. Before welding on the vehicle, the battery shall be taken away from the body.

6. Take out electric fuel pump from fuel tank and expose it in the air. Do not energize electric
fuel pump to avoid spark and fire.

7. Positive and negative electrodes of electric fuel pump shall not be reversed.

8. Equipment that may generate radio interference, like radio antenna shall not be installed
near ECU to avoid mutual interference.

9. On a rainy day, when maintaining and washing the engine, do not let water go into the en-
gine or splash water onto electronic circuit.

10. Prohibit the use of detection method that gas mixture in the cylinder does not burn and then
go into exhaust pipe.

11. If fuel pressure is high, first release the pressure before maintaining the pipe. The method:
dismantle fuel pump fuse, start the engine, run it idly unit it flames out.

12. Before removing any part, first switch off ignition switch and remove negative cable of
the battery.

13. Because three-way catalytic converter will be installed, lead-free gasoline shall be used. If
lead gasoline or low-lead gasoline is used, three-way catalytic converter will be damaged
and purifying result of purification system will be reduced.

14. Do not pierce wire shield to detect electric signal.

15. Fuel pipe clamp is disposable. It is forbidden to reuse to avoid fuel leakage.

16. Because high voltage ignition coil is used, do not contact it by hand when the engine works.

17. Idling adjustment of the engine is completely made by electronic fuel injection system. There is
no need to make mechanical maintenance for idling adjustment and idling system.

18. After replacing ECU or idle speed regulator, before first start, turn ignition switch to ON for
20s and then start it to make the system or idle speed regulator complete self-adaption.

19. Electronic control system can provide appropriate air-fuel ratio to the engine in any case to
make the engine work normally. Therefore, when starting the engine, do not operate any
mechanism of the engine (including accelerator).

20. The system has fault safety function. Note: although the engine system has fault safety
function, it is not appropriate to run for a long time. Therefore, when MIL is lit, it is required
to make troubleshooting immediately to avoid serious damage of the engine.
