Engine Overview and Common Failures

The weight of the LSJ engine according to the catalog is 150 kg. The LSJ engine number is located on the oil filter housing. Most complaints about this unit are related to erratic idle speed. In some cases, it is necessary to clean the throttle and intake every 10,000 km traveled. The second issue is oil leakage through the dipstick during sudden acceleration from a standstill. The weak points of this engine also include a not very high lifespan of the timing chain. And don't forget to replace the oil in the compressor, or it will not last particularly long.
