sembly, repair,assembly, installation, checks, adjust-
ments, and troubleshooting for the Mazda M4-2.0G
and M4-2.2G engines. The engine specifications are

Description
WARNING
Some gaskets used in this engine can contain
dangerous fibers. Breathing dust from these
fibers is a cancer or lung disease hazard. Do
not create dust! Use vacuum equipment for
asbestos or follow the cleaning procedure de-
scribed below.
• Make sure the gasketmaterial is wet with wa-
ter or oil to prevent particles in the air.
• Use a hand scraper to remove old gasket ma-
terial. Do not use a power tool or compressed
air.
• Discard all asbestos material in a closed con-
tainer while it is still wet.
• Put a DANGEROUS FIBERS warning label on
the container. Discard dangerous fiber mate-
rial safely.
CAUTION
Disconnect the battery cables before doing any
disassembly and repair to the engine or parts
of the electrical system.
The diodes and resistors in the electrical sys-
tem can be damaged if the following cautions
are not followed:
• Do not disconnect the battery when the en-
gine is running. The voltage surge can dam-
age the diodes and resistors.
• Do not disconnect an electric wire before the
engine is stopped and the key switch is OFF.
• Do not cause
a short circuit by connection
of the elect
ric wires to the wrong terminals.
Make sure a c
orrect identification of the wire
is made wir
e before it is connected.
• Makesure a b
atteryis the correct voltage and
polarity b
efore it is connected.
• Do not check
for current flow by making a
spark beca
use the transistors can be dam-
aged.
The Mazda M
4-2.0G and M4-2.2G engines have
four cylin
ders. The displacement of the M4-2.0G
is 1998 cm
3
(121.9 in.
3
). The displacement of the
M4-2.2G i
s 2184 cm
3
(133.2 in.
3
). The firing order is
1–3–4–2.
They are both available with either a
gasoline
or LPG fuel system. The No. 1 cylinder is
toward th
e end of the engine with the cooling fan.
The overh
ead camshaft is driven by a cog belt. The
camshaft
operates the rocker arms that actuate the
valves.
The cran
kshaft has five main bearings. The main
bearing
in the center of the crankshaft is also the
thrust b
earing.
The pist
ons are aluminum alloy and have three pis-
ton ring
s. Each of the two compression rings have a
special
shape designed for its position on the piston.
The thi
rd piston ring is the oil control ring.
