Two types of engines are available; 4B11 (1,998 cc)
and 4B12 (2,360 cc).
These engines have adopted the following features:

• MIVEC (Mitsubishi Innovative Valve timing Elec-

tronic Control system) for the intake valves

• Cylinder block made of an aluminium alloy

• Valve train with direct-acting valve tappets

• Silent timing chain

• Unit type balancer<4B12>

CYLINDER HEAD RELATION

1. CYLINDER HEAD COVER

• A Plastic cylinder head cover has been adopted.

2. PCV VALVE

3. FRONT CAMSHAFT BEARING CAP

• On each camshaft, the thrust load is supported

by No. 4 bearing. The No. 1 bearings for the
intake and exhaust camshafts have a common
bearing cap.

4. CAMSHAFT BEARING CAP

• Each of the intake and exhaust camshafts is sup-

ported by five bearings.

5. CAMSHAFT BEARING

6. OIL FEEDER CONTROL VALVE

7. OIL FEEDER CONTROL VALVE FILTER

8. CYLINDER HEAD

• The cylinder head is made of aluminium alloy,

which is lightweight and has an excellent cooling
efficiency. The intake and exhaust ports are
arranged in a cross-flow construction. Each cylin-
der has a pair of intake ports on one side and a
pair of exhaust ports on the other side.

9. CYLINDER HEAD GASKET

• A dual-layer, metal type cylinder head gasket that

excels in heat resistance and sealing perform-
ance has been adopted.

10.VALVE GUIDE

• Valve guides that are common to both the inlet

and exhaust have been adopted.

11.VALVE SEAT

• Sintered alloy valve seats have been adopted.

CYLINDER BLOCK

A cylinder block made of an aluminium alloy has
been adopted for weight reduction.
Five bearings are provided for the crankshaft jour-
nals and the No. 3 bearing sustains the thrust load of
the crankshaft.
The water jacket is the full Siamese type.
1. CYLINDER BLOCK

• The cylinder block is made of lightweight alumin-

ium alloy.

The water jacket is of a full-seamless design.

2. CRANKSHAFT BEARING CAP

• The crankshaft journal is supported by four bear-

ings. The crankshaft thrust load is supported by
No. 3 bearing.

PISTON RELATION

1. PISTON

• The pistons are made of a special aluminium

alloy. Their weight has been reduced by lowering
their overall height and increasing the depression
at each end of the piston pin. The piston pin hole
centre is offset 0.8 mm towards the thrust side of
the piston centre. The skirt portion along the
perimeter of the piston is finished with streaks
that excel in oil retention and seizure resistance.

2. PISTON PIN

• The piston pin is of a semi-floating type, press-fit-

ted into the connecting rod small end while capa-
ble of floating relative to the piston.

3. CONNECTING ROD

• The connecting rod is made of highly rigid, forged

carbon steel. The rod portion has an H-shaped
cross section. The connecting rod big end bear-
ing is lubricated through an oil passage running
from the main journal to the crankshaft pin.

4. PISTON RING

• Each piston is provided with No. 1 and No. 2

compression rings and an oil ring.

5. CONNECTING ROD BEARING

• The upper and lower connecting rod bearing

halves are identical. The connecting rod bearing
is equipped with back metal. While the bearing
itself is made of aluminium alloy, the back metal
is normally made of steel sheet. The connecting
rod bearing is narrower than the bearing cap, this
is to minimize wear.
