4JA1 Engine, Are there any problems?

[larjhones]

Hello sir Jims2x,

Actually, yun din yung ginagawa ko or mas grabe pa kasi po nilagyan ko yung yung exhasut pipe ko right after sa exhaust manifold ng B.I. pipe provision for washing the exhaust pipe with water. Binababad ko po yun ng powder soap or liquid soap or minsan diswashing soap tsaka turn-on the engine and rev hard! Problem ko po hindi itim na usok, bluish-white na usok na mabahong amoy po during start-ups, idle and accleration while engine still not in normal operating temperature.

Tyvm.

well,kelangan mo ng magpa linis ng nozzle that feed fuel inside the combustion chamber bro...kaya mausok na yan,and white smoke kamo kasi barado na ng carbon yung mga nozzle mo....mura lang yun sa mga calibration shop..pag nagpagawa ako,200 pesos lang sa trusted kong talyer,apat na nozzle na yun...

For me,the 4JA1 engine is simply perfect and reliable...mag 100,000kms na yung sportivo ko,pero wala pa akong problema sa makina....palibhasa,I know how to maintain the engine...ang sekreto ko,alaga lang sa langis,andyan kasi ang buhay ng sasakyan....and dont put gear oil sa transmission ng crosswind,kungdi same engine oil din na nilalagay nyo sa main engine nyo...and the best for me is Shell Helix super Ultra Diesel,for 4 litres,it cost only 700+php....

sa clutch,kung matigas na,ipa bleed nyo na yung fluid,isabay nyo na din yung sa break.....

napakadaling i maintain ng crosswind,compare sa ibang sasakyan...if you know how...

Actually, done that also sir yung pa-check ng opening pressure, spray pattern at cleaning the 4-nozzles. All passed within the 185kg/cm2 opening pressure. spray pattern also in well distributed fine mist spray on all 4-orifices. Meron po akong maintenance manual ng isuzu 4J series engines kaya alam ko po yun. yes, ganun di po sa engine oil for the manual transmission as per manual. No problems po ako sa clutch, brakes, change oils and other fluids ng hilander ko 'cause ako mismo gumagawa nun.
Itong white to bluish smoke lang talaga na medyo disturb ako at nkaka-annoy na nakakahiya na masyado.
Totoo po yun, ang 4ja1 engine natin ay ang pinaka tipid sa lahat ng diesel engine in terms of engine oil and fuel economy compared with its counterpart belonging on the same engine displacement.
From toyota 2L, mazda B2500, Mitsu 4D56 lahat po ay around 6Litters ang engine oil while 4JA1's only 4~4.5 Liters. Laking tipid talaga. Salamat po sa mga comments ninyo.

Adventure na 4d56 ay 4.5-5 liters lang kelangan. 5.5liters yung sa TDiC. 7.5 liters dun naman sa CRDi

ilang liters ba talaga ng engine oil kelangan ng m/t crosswind? kase last time 4 liters dinala ng dad ko pero nagpabili pa ng 1 liter yung mekaniko kaya mga 5 liters lahat-lahat nilagay

To be accurate, it should really be 4.5L.

Mga sir, ask ko lang po if ano ang mga possible problems pag medyo noticable yung shaking sa engine? Minsan po kasi naabot sa steering wheel yung pagshake or vibrate... Is this normal? TIA :-)

hmmm...baka kelangan mo ng ipa check up sa calibration shop ang fuel injection pump mo bro....kaya yan ang kagandahan sa mga old school na sasakyan ano bro,hehe...kukunti lang kelangan mong pagsuspetsahan sa mga culprit pag nagkaroon ng trouble shooting unlike electronics generated cars o yung mga de computer box....

tama lang pala sa langis ang engine mo,and napalinisan na ang nozzle and na flush ang tambusto...bale yung sa injection pump na lang di mo nabanggit bro...maybe dun na ang problem....or may isa pa pala....baka sa valve timing??

*bro fargin.....kung ang crosswind mo ay yung wala pang turbo,4 liters lang talaga,like mine...pero dun sa mga latest model,di ko alam kung ilang liters talaga...
