Mazda Diesel engine


Mazda has a long history of building its own Diesel engines, with the exception of a few units that were built under license.

Inline-fours

These three engines were developed especially for Mazda and were never offered by Perkins themselves.
All of these engines have cast iron blocks and heads, two overhead valves per cylinder driven by maintenance-free timing gears, crossflow heads, are indirect injection. US-market B2200 and Ford Ranger trucks - and possibly the others as well - had rotary Bosch VE-style injection pumps, built by Diesel Kiki under license from Bosch.

RF

A diesel variation of the FE engine which shares its square internal dimensions of bore and stroke - it is virtually the same block, with identical bell housing pattern and block dimensions. This could be a testament to the F-block's strength as it was over-built for naturally aspirated duty. Its alloy head is entirely different though, with valves directly actuated rather than the rockers of the FE. The glow plugs are located in remote combustion chambers, with fuel delivered by a mechanical pump. The RF is light, with the original naturally aspirated version weighing in at, ; more than the FE. The RF The RF and R2 continue production to this day as the MZR-CD, with counter-rotating balance-shafts mounted between the engine block and oil pan as well as much evolved head and direct-injection technology. The RF is a SOHC, two valves-per-cylinder engine. One of Mazda's more popular diesel engines, it was also available with a pressure wave supercharger called Comprex.
Applications:
Latest emission improved version used in Mazda 323 adopts a new swirl chamber with an enlarged volume, revised swirl-chamber-to-main-chamber ratio and a narrower throat area. Engine produces at 4500 rpm on a raised 21.7:1 compression ratio, and has an exceptionally wide spread of torque throughout its range, peaking with at 3000 rpm.

A direct-injection turbo version with four valves per cylinder, called the DiTD was introduced in the June 1998 Mazda 626 Wagon 2.0 DiTD. Engine has SOHC valve train with rocker arms and mechanically adjusted screws, with Denso V5 rotary injection pump and Denso PCM.
There were three power versions:
Engines were mounted in:
Next evolution of RF engine with common rail direct-injection was introduced in June 2002 European version Mazda 6 with output power or , depending on engine version. 2002 RF Mazda diesel engine includes new dual-mass flywheel and common rail Denso injection with max. pressure of 1800 bar, pilot and post-injection for operating smoothness and soft and acoustically unobtrusive combustion. Both versions have same compression ratio 18.3:1. Torque output, fuel efficiency and NOx emissions were improved by using:
Combined fuel economy is achieving and emission rating Euro Stage III with on a regular basis mounted catalytic converter with Lambda probe and exhaust-gas recirculation system.

Production of improved, cleaner and more powerful common rail direct-injection turbocharged version of Mazda RF engine was started with July 2005 Mazda 6 facelift. This drivetrain still has most of typical features of its predecessor including belt-driven SOHC valve train with rocker arms and mechanically adjusted screws. Mazda applied several technologies to this MZR-CD engine to achieve Euro Stage IV:
There were two power versions of this engine: Standard Power at 3500 rpm and a maximum torque of at 2000 rpm, High Power at 3500 rpm and a maximum torque of at 2000 rpm. Both versions come with a DPF system standard, which traps soot in a coated ceramic filter. As soon as the filter's storage capacity is exhausted, exhaust gas temperature is raised for a short period and the particles burn off. As a result, the RF 2005 engines emit 80 percent less particulate matter than required by Euro Stage IV standards.
Engines were mounted in :
Slightly detuned at 3500 rpm and at 2000 rpm) version of RF 2005 engine was introduced in November 2007's second generation Mazda 6. Newly calibrated powertrain control module mapping resulted in better drivability, fuel efficiency and emission performance. This engine has changed layout of the intake/exhaust, with more efficient EGR cooler, better DPF and combined fuel consumption, less than its predecessor.
Engine was mounted in :
A diesel variation of the F2 which shares its bore and stroke.

SH 2.2 SKYACTIV-D

Introduced at the 41st Tokyo Motor Show
Mazda Y4 engine is a rebadged PSA DV4 engine, produced in the PSA engine plant in Trémery or Ford's engine plant in Dagenham. These SOHC 8-valve turbo diesel engines with bore and stroke of, and compression ratio 18.0:1 were shipped to Valencia and mounted into Mazda 2 DY and Mazda 2 DE together with a 5-speed manual transmission. The engine's maximum power is at 4,000 rpm, maximum torque at 1,750 rpm.
