The weight of the CG13DE engine according to the catalog is 105 kg. The engine number CG13DE is located at the junction of the block and the gearbox. Owners often go to the service center to replace stretched timing chains. Regular cleaning of the throttle valve is necessary due to fluctuating engine speeds. The thermostat often needs to be replaced, as it may start malfunctioning even at low mileage. The usual culprits of numerous oil leaks are deteriorated gaskets. This engine is very sensitive to moisture, which easily seeps into the spark plug wells.
