Overview
The Suzuki K engine family is a series of automobile engines from Suzuki, introduced in 1994. Displacements range from 0. 7 L to 1. 5 L. All engines have aluminium cylinder blocks with three or four cylinders in-line. Cylinder heads have two overhead camshafts, driven by chain, and four valves per cylinder. Fuel is gasoline/petrol, metered by multipoint fuel injection or direct injection. Some variants are turbocharged.
Since 2013, some of the K engines range have been upgraded with Dualjet technology. The upgrades include new two injectors per cylinder, increased compression ratio , redesigned water jacket shape, piston cooling by oil jets, water-cooled EGR system and several other changes for fuel efficiency. The turbocharged variant with direct injection fuel system is called Boosterjet....
