The Mazda 6 cars use 4-cylinder engines as a power plant, in which the cylinders are located in one row. The engine is covered from below by a sump, forming a crankcase, which is also a reservoir for oil, necessary for lubrication, cooling and protection of engine parts from wear.
All three engines are 16-valve, with four valves per cylinder. The valves are actuated by two overhead camshafts via plate tappets.
This section describes the inspection procedures and repair operations without removing the engine from the vehicle, then discusses in detail the procedure for removal and installation, and also describes the repair of parts located in the block and cylinder head.
