Engine Overview and Common Failures
The weight of the EML engine assembly is 250 kg. The EML engine number is located at the joint with the cylinder head. This engine only likes 98-octane gasoline and consumes more than 20 liters per 100 km. The use of lower-quality fuel usually leads to cracks between the valves in the cylinder head. It is not worth saving on lubrication, otherwise the hydraulic compensators may simply stick. Moreover, this is a very heavy engine, which greatly limits the lifespan of its supports. The weak points of the engine are also considered to be: the fuel pump, water pump, and exhaust manifold.
