What engine does the Trumpchi Shadow Leopard use?
1 Answers
The engine model used in the Trumpchi Shadow Leopard is the 4A15J2, with a maximum horsepower of 177 hp, a maximum power of 130 KW, a maximum power speed of 5500 rpm, and a maximum torque of 270 Nm. The Trumpchi Shadow Leopard's engine is from the GAC Trumpchi brand, an independently developed engine expansion, produced at the Yichang factory. Daily maintenance for the Trumpchi Shadow Leopard's engine can be performed using the following methods: Use lubricating oil of appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, select SD--SF grade gasoline engine oil based on the additional devices of the intake and exhaust system and usage conditions; for diesel engines, choose CB--CD grade diesel engine oil according to mechanical load, with the selection standard not lower than the manufacturer's requirements. Regularly change the oil and filter. The quality of any grade of lubricating oil will change during use. After a certain mileage, performance deteriorates, leading to various engine problems. To avoid faults, change the oil regularly according to usage conditions and maintain an appropriate oil level. When oil passes through the fine holes of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances in the oil accumulate in the filter. If the filter is blocked and oil cannot pass through the filter element, it may rupture the filter element or open the safety valve, allowing oil to bypass and carry contaminants back to the lubrication area, accelerating engine wear and increasing internal pollution. Regularly clean the crankcase. During engine operation, high-pressure unburned gases, acids, moisture, sulfur, and nitrogen oxides from the combustion chamber enter the crankcase through the gap between the piston rings and cylinder walls, mixing with metal powder from part wear to form sludge. A small amount remains suspended in the oil, while a large amount precipitates, clogging filters and oil passages, causing lubrication difficulties and wear. Regularly use radiator cleaner to clean the radiator. Removing rust and scale not only ensures the engine operates normally but also extends the overall lifespan of the radiator and engine.
