The dry weight of the G4EC engine according to the catalog is 115.1 kg. The G4EC engine number is located at the front, at the junction of the block and the cylinder head. This engine doesn't have any particular weak points, but it mainly has minor issues such as fluctuating revs due to throttle, idle control valve, or injector contamination. It also often misfires due to a cracked ignition coil or broken wires. A distinctive feature of Alpha engines is the limited lifespan of the hydraulic lifters. They require good oil and frequent oil changes, otherwise they will start ticking before reaching 100,000 km mileage. Some consider worn-out oil pump plunger and dropping oil pressure as the cause of wear. In the Accent TagAZ manual, it is recommended to replace the timing belt every 50,000 km, but there are reviews online from those whose belt broke earlier, resulting in bent valves. The chain between the camshafts also needs to be replaced at 100,000 km, as it doesn't last long either. After 200,000 km, there is often a slight oil consumption that increases with mileage. Most often, the cause is hardened oil seals, and replacing them usually helps. However, if it doesn't, it means the piston rings are worn out and the engine will need a more expensive repair. Other drawbacks include complaints about short-lived auxiliary equipment and engine mounts, regular oil leaks, and the appearance of the Check Engine light due to a burned-out exhaust manifold gasket. If the engine doesn't start, it's worth checking the fuel cut-off system.
