Engines
3100 V6 SFI ENGINE (L82)
All Monte Carlo LS models are equipped with a
standard 60-degree 3100 V6 engine with Sequential
Fuel Injection (SFI). SFI delivers precise amounts of
fuel through injectors at each cylinder, optimizing fuel
efficiency, quick start-ups in all weather conditions and
smooth acceleration.
P
ower ratings for the 3100 V6 engine are:
160 HORSEPOWER at 5200 rpm
185 LB.-FT. TORQUE at 4000 rpm.
3100
V6 engine technical features:
ROLLER ROCKER ARMS act as roller bearings to
reduce noise and friction between camshaft lobes
and contacting surfaces of the rocker arms.
MASS AIRFLOW SENSOR renders precise air metering
and control of the air-to-fuel ratio.
“HIGH-RESOLUTION” IGNITION SYSTEM produces a
fast ignition and smooth idle.
“ASSEMBLED” CAMSHAFT is made up of individual
lobes permanently locked onto a weight-saving
tube, yielding a stable idle and impressive durability.
DIE-CAST ALUMINUM STRUCTURAL OIL PAN is
“cross-bolted” to the main bearing caps to supply
added strength and rigidity while helping to
reduce noise.
TORQUE AXIS ENGINE MOUNT SYSTEM, the heart
of which consists of two fluid-filled engine and
transmission mounts that “absorb” or “dampen”
engine vibrations, contributing to a solid, stable
ride with reduced engine noise and virtually
unnoticeable idle.
ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTICS SECOND GENERATION
(OBD II) is combined with the Powertrain Control
Module (PCM) to monitor fuel delivery, ignition
timing and the emissions system, helping detect
deterioration or malfunction.
CHANGE OIL SOON INDICATOR illuminates when
it’s time to change the engine oil. This system
also is sensitive to driving habits and conditions.
Therefore, the light may come on as early as 2,000
miles or sooner in harsh driving conditions.
OIL LEVEL AND COOLANT SENSORS alert the driver
when fluids are low, helping avoid engine damage.
LOW MAINTENANCE due to platinum-tip spark
plugs which can go up to 100,000 miles before the
first scheduled replacement* and extended-life
engine coolant that lasts up to five years or 150,000
miles, whichever comes first.*
*Maintenance needs vary with different uses and driving conditions.
See owner’s manual for more information.
3800 SERIES II V6 ENGINE (L36)
The 90-degree 3800 Series II V6 engine is standard
on Z34. It offers a level of power many wouldn’t
expect from a midsize coupe.
P
ower ratings for the 3800 Series II V6 engine are:
200 HORSEPOWER at 5200 rpm
225 LB.-FT. OF TORQUE at 4000 rpm.
