TECHNICAL DATA
ENGINE – GASOLINE / LPG
K21 (2.1 liter) or K25 (2.5 liter) gasoline/LPG,
4-cylinder, in-line engines with Engine Con-
centrated Control Systems (ECCS) exceed
EPA emissions standards. These low-RPM,
high-torque industrial engines offer reduced
maintenance requirements, exceptional
emissions controls, fast acceleration, high
performance, reliable durability and
enhanced serviceability.
• There are three engine fuel choices:
gasoline multi-port fuel injection, LPG
single-port (throttle body) fuel injection,
or a dual-fuel system with easy switch-
ing at the fl ip of a switch. All engines are
equipped with 3-way catalytic converters
and closed-loop exhaust systems.
• All engines utilize an ECCS that continu-
ously monitors data from the fuel pressure,
accelerator throttle position, mass air-fl ow
sensor, and heated oxygen sensor – for
improved fuel economy, smooth operation,
reliable starting in cold weather, and high
performance throughout the operating
range. An electronic throttle governor pro-
tects the engine against over-rev damage.
• Crankshaft and camshaft position sen-
sors provide information to the ECCS for
optimum ignition and fuel injection timing.
Each cylinder has an individual ignition coil
for precise control and reliability.
• An engine coolant temperature sensor
and controller protects the engine against
damage due to high engine temperature
by automatically limiting engine speed
during high-temperature operation. If the
engine coolant temperature exceeds safe
operation temperature, the engine will be
shut down. An illuminated indicator on the
instrument console indicates high-temper-
ature operation, and gives the operator
warning of engine shutdown.
• The aluminum alloy cylinder head has large
intake and exhaust valves and a semi-
hemispherical combustion chamber for
effi cient fuel consumption.
• The engine block is designed with fi ve
main bearings. All main and rod bearings
are micro-grooved to improve lubrication
and reduce wear.
ENGINE – DIESEL
The 4D94LE diesel, 4-cylinder, in-line 2.77-
liter engine employs 4-stroke, 4-cycle tech-
nology and direct injection to produce high
performance with excellent fuel economy.
• Delivers the power and effi ciency to get
the job done quickly and cost-effectively,
while meeting all applicable EPA emission
requirements.
• Quick Glow Spark (QGS) starting
system ensures a fast and reliable start
in all climates.
FUEL SYSTEM – GASOLINE / LPG
Gasoline, LPG, or Dual-Fuel systems are
available. The gasoline fuel tank is integral
to the truck frame.
• In-tank mounted gasoline fuel delivery
pump, fuel-level sensing unit, pressure
regulator and fi lter are standard.
• LPG fuel system uses single-point, throttle
body fuel injection. A removable 33 lb. or
43 lb. fuel tank is available with stationary,
fold-back or swing-out-and-down tank
mountings.
