Engine Overview and Common Failures

The weight of the KA24E engine according to the catalog is 160 kg. The engine number KA24E is located on the cylinder block. Owners often complain about high fuel consumption or oil consumption. Valves need to be periodically adjusted as there are no hydraulic compensators. The engine oil pan easily dents upon impact, which can lead to the oil pickup being blocked. It is not uncommon to replace the timing chain or its tensioner closer to 250,000 km. The power unit does not like cheap oil as it quickly becomes carbonized.
