Tredia L4-1795cc 1.8L SOHC Turbo (1984)
DETAILS OF CHANGE
Beginning March, 1989 the turbocharged G54B engine in the Starion has a new style connecting rod bearing material made of copper/lead alloy
(kelmet). Due to the engine horsepower & torque increase that occurred in 1988, the connecting rod bearings should be replaced on 1988/1989 Starions.
Note:
The older style aluminum alloy bearings are still appropriate for use in the G54B engines found in the Truck and Montero, as well as the G54B
engine found in 1983-1987 Starions.
