Overview
The Hyundai Beta engines are 1. 6 L to 2. 0 L I4 built in Ulsan, South Korea.
All Beta engines are dual overhead camshaft valvetrain design. The Beta engine uses a direct-acting overhead cam valvetrain arrangement which places the camshaft in the cylinder head above the pistons and combustion chamber and operates the valve tappets/lifters directly.
The Beta engine's ignition system is designed to ignite the fuel/air charge that enters each cylinder by producing a high voltage spark at the exact moment for maximum efficiency....
