What engine is used in the Jinbei T32?

The engine model of the Jinbei T32 is SWC15M, with a maximum horsepower of 102 hp and a maximum power of 75KW. The engine of the Jinbei T32 is produced by Mianyang Xinchen Company. Xinchen Power has cumulatively produced over 5 million engines, which are installed in various models including BMW brand vehicles. For the daily maintenance of the Jinbei T32 engine, the following methods can be used: Use lubricating oil of appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, SD--SF grade gasoline engine oil should be selected based on the additional devices of the intake and exhaust systems and usage conditions; for diesel engines, CB--CD grade diesel engine oil should be selected according to mechanical load, with the selection standard not lower than the requirements specified by the manufacturer. Regularly change the engine oil and filter. The quality of any grade of lubricating oil will change during use. After a certain mileage, the performance deteriorates, which can cause various problems for the engine. To avoid faults, the oil should be changed regularly according to usage conditions, and the oil level should be kept moderate. When the oil passes through the fine pores of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances in the oil accumulate in the filter. If the filter is clogged and the oil cannot pass through the filter element, the filter element may burst or the safety valve may open, allowing the oil to bypass through the bypass valve, bringing dirt back to the lubrication area, accelerating engine wear and increasing internal contamination. Regularly clean the crankcase. During engine operation, high-pressure unburned gas, acid, 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 the filter and oil holes, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear. Regularly use a radiator cleaner to clean the radiator. Removing rust and scale not only ensures the normal operation of the engine but also extends the overall lifespan of the radiator and engine.
The Jinbei T32 typically uses a 1.5L or 1.6L gasoline engine, such as the Mitsubishi-technology 4A15 model. I drove this vehicle for several years myself, mainly for deliveries. The engine performance is quite reliable, with sufficient power for daily cargo hauling and no difficulty climbing slopes. Fuel consumption is around 9L per 100km, more economical than some diesel vehicles, though it has slight lag during acceleration. Maintenance is easy, with simple oil changes, and spark plugs are recommended to be replaced annually. Power weakens slightly when using air conditioning in summer, which is a common issue. As an owner, I find it cost-effective and suitable for small businesses. The engine is produced by Shenyang Aerospace Mitsubishi, featuring mature technology, though it's noisy at high speeds. Regular inspection of the intake system is advised to prevent carbon buildup.
