I've been researching this engine, and can't find bugger s**t on it..

If someone can please help me, or put me on the path.

Want to know the following:
Timing Belt replacements
Tuning information

 

Heya!!

Hows it all going? having fun with the DOHC yet? Try searching for Mitsubishi E-CJ2A or Mitsubishi E-CL2A. Thats the model number of the DOHC cars in Japan. The CL2A is the 4WD version.......(if only we got that in Aus!!).

Hope you find what you need

car is going aight, but i; just about to get the RPW headers and need to adjust the timing, and possibly even replace the timinng belt.

the farken things been rubbing against the top plastic cover to the belt, and has taken some chunks outta the belt.

 

Ouch!! Ive got my headers from RPW had them for 3 or 4 weeks now....after waiting a year I havent bothered to get them on yet!! Good luck with it!!

all the search turns up are Japanese sites or russian sites.

anyone know where I can download a tranlator?

 

Sonic1 or Thunda,

Do you know the replacement part number of the Cam belt?
Otherwise, do you happen to know how many teeth are on the cam belt?

 

Normal timing belt replacement on mitsu engines 105 000k which i thought was sus as 107 500k was listed as a intermediate service in the owners hand book so as we also serviced other brands of vehicles we did the belts at 100 000k to be on the safe side. Try the gates site theres a contact us part there and tell them that the engine is a dohc 4g15 they should be able to give you a part no to suit it. Dont know for sure but possibly a proton may be the same. Could someone tell me for my own intrest?

 

sorry that i can`t be much help as i just get Dave to look after all the crap and i just drive the car .

btw this would be the only site i don`t use thunda on and you have found it

 

That's alright Phreak....i think we are all on about 4 different forums.

BTW - managed to get in touch with Dave, who has a Cam belt in stock, so it should be ok.

Evo4two...what do you mean by Gates site?

Don't think the proton belt will fit, but I'll have to experiement a bit.

I also can't find any reference for a 4G15 DOHC anywhere - apart from the Mirage Asti which sold in Japan and New Zealand. But then they reference the DOHC 1.5L as either being the 4G91 or the 4G61...

 

All the info i found is in Japanese as well but I put it into a translator for english have a look at http://www.mitsubishi-motors.co.jp/d...ata/index.html and put it into systran converter (found it on the net somewhere???)

It'll be a cac if the belt fits from one of those
thanks for the tips Evo4two.

Not a big fan of the new Colt I must day - like my v6 killa....

Got my headers too finally - hopefully get them installed this week (tried on the wekend but couldnt work out how to take off the the p/s pump to stock headers off).
