Engine Type:
Likely 659cc (0.7L) 3-cylinder or 4-cylinder engines for the Japanese domestic market Mira/Cuore. European or other market variants might have larger displacements. Specific engine codes (e.g., EF-SE, EF-EL, JB-JL) would be detailed in the manual.
Horsepower Range:
Typically in the 50-70 HP range for naturally aspirated variants, potentially higher for turbocharged models, depending on engine code.
Torque Range:
Low to moderate torque figures, characteristic of small-displacement engines.
Fuel Delivery:
Fuel Injection (EFI) is standard for this era, possibly with multi-point injection (MPI).
Oil Change Interval:
Typically 5,000-7,500 miles (8,000-12,000 km) or 6-12 months, depending on driving conditions.
Air Filter Replacement:
Every 15,000-30,000 miles (24,000-48,000 km) or as needed based on conditions.
