168-482: A facelift, the home market Turbo received fuel injection and power output went up to 82 PS (60 kW; 81 hp) JIS, torque to 120 N⋅m (89 lb⋅ft). It was a short-lived version, however, as by September 1988 the car was no longer on sale in the Japanese domestic market. As the only market in the world, Canada did continue to receive this engine for its versions of the second generation Cultus. The G10B
210-452: A hemispherical head design with rocker arms and mechanical lifters. Valve sizes were 36 millimeter for the intake and 30 millimeter exhaust. Later G10 engines (1989 and newer) received throttle-body fuel injection and replaced the rocker arm valvetrain for a direct-acting camshaft with hydraulic lifters . Coolant now left the engine via the cylinder head, and the valve sizes decreased to 35 millimeter intake and 28 millimeter exhaust. Despite
252-570: A more fuel efficient engine than the G13BB on which it is based. Maruti modified the engine to displace less than 1200 cc to take advantage of the reduced excise duty on such vehicles in India. It produces 73 PS (54 kW; 72 hp) at 6000 rpm and 98 N⋅m (72 lb⋅ft) at 3000 rpm for petrol variant and 65 PS (48 kW; 64 hp) at 6000 rpm and 85 N⋅m (63 lb⋅ft) at 3000 rpm for CNG variant. The G13
294-598: A straight-twin engine. Four-stroke straight-three engines have been used in road bikes and racing bikes by several companies. From 1985–1995, the BMW K75 was produced with a straight-three engine (based on the straight-four engine from the BMW K100). British company Triumph is particularly renowned for a transversely-mounted straight-three engine. Variants have been used in their Speed Triple , Trident , Sprint , and Tiger series. In addition Triumph makes
336-540: A wasted spark arrangement of two coils bolted directly to the valve cover. This engine uses a MAF sensor to monitor manifold pressure, similar to the G16B series. This engine has a non-interference valvetrain design. It uses the same G series block found in many other Suzuki models and so it is a popular conversion into the Suzuki Sierra/Samurai, which uses either a G13A (85-88) or G13BA (88.5-98). This allows
378-494: Is 9.5:1. The G16B engine is equipped with Multi-point fuel injection (MPFI) and depending on year & market can have a distributor or distributorless ignition using two different styles of wasted spark coils. This engine produced 94–97 PS (93–96 hp; 69–71 kW) at 5,600 rpm of and 132–140 N⋅m (97–103 lb⋅ft) at 4,000 rpm. Used in the following vehicles: Straight-three engine A straight-three engine (also called an inline-triple or inline-three )
420-432: Is a three-cylinder piston engine where cylinders are arranged in a line along a common crankshaft. Less common than straight-four engines , straight-three engines have nonetheless been used in various motorcycles, cars and agricultural machinery. A crankshaft angle of 120 degrees is typically used by straight-three engines, since this results in an evenly spaced firing interval . Another benefit of this configuration
462-444: Is an inline-four engine using aluminum alloy for the block, cylinder head and pistons. Displacing 1.3 L (1,324 cc) for the G13A and 1.3 L; 79.2 cu in (1,298 cc) for all other G13 engines, fuel delivery is either through a carburetor, throttle body fuel injection or multi-point fuel injection. This engine was made with different valvetrain designs: 8 or 16 valve SOHC or 16 valve DOHC . All G13 engines have
