the G4HC is a 1.0 motor...why is it in the same section as the 3.5l v6? i want to know what 3.5l v6 engine makes 217 hp. ? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kiaboywonder (talk • contribs) 17:36, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
This entry will be cleaned up. The Mitsu V6 and Sigma are two different engines. References to the metric hp and torque units will be removed.
I removed the following engine as it does not belong to Sigma series:
"2.5 The DOHC carbureted G6AV (also called the 2.5 D) is the small 2.5 L (2497 cc) version. Bore is 83.5 mm and stroke is shared with the 3.0 at 76 mm. Output is 160 hp (119 kW) at 6000 RPM and 151 ft.lbf (204 Nm) at 4500 RPM."
- Plese don't delete relevant info. Instead try to move it to somewhere it belongs. I moved the part you removed to the article Mitsubishi 6G7 engine. I'm not sure it's the right place, maybe the Hyundai built licensed Mitsubishi engine should have an article of its own? --Boivie 11:21, 5 May 2006 (UTC)
The reason I removed it is that some basic info like the fuel/air induction is wrong. G6AV doesn't have a carburetor. I'm working on verifying other stuff and put the cleaned-up version up.
How exactly was the 3.5 "at the time, the largest engine offered in a minivan" when Chrysler had been offering a 3.8 since 1991 and Chevrolet had a 4.3 in the Astro from 1985 to 2005. Ford offered a 3.8 in the Windstar from '95 through 2003, Honda Odyssey equalled it in 2001 (and had more power) while previously 3.8 motors were offered in the Chevrolet Lumina APV models, and 4.0s in Ford Aerostars. So, not counting all the clone versions, 6 distinct designs have had larger or equal sized engines, in fact it's difficult to find the model lines that haven't had an engine larger or equal to it, the Nissan Quest and Toyota Previa come to mind though.
Furthermore, it wasn't the second most powerful engine in 2001 or ever, Chrysler and Honda had more power in 2001, and Chevrolet and Ford had previously had more power.
So are people just making this stuff up or what? J.A.G.
Removed " and was, at the time, the largest engine offered in a minivan and the second-most powerful. Since then, many other makes have passed it on both counts." for reasons stated above because I got fed up of looking at it.
