Engine Overview and Common Failures

The weight of the RKB engine according to the catalog is 140 kg. The RKB engine number is located at the junction of the block and the gearbox. The cause of periodic power failures is a clogged filter in the fuel tank. If you neglect this issue for too long, you may need to replace the fuel pump. Keep an eye on the condition of the timing belt, as it often fails before the declared mileage of 120,000 km. The source of oil leakage is usually the front or rear crankshaft seal. The engine prefers high-quality oil, otherwise the hydraulic compensators will fail quickly.
