The weight of the QG13DE engine according to the catalog is 128 kg. The engine number is located at the junction of the block and the gearbox. The non-durable timing chain often stretches at a mileage of 120-150 thousand kilometers. The culprit of fluctuating engine speed is usually a dirty throttle valve. Since there are no hydraulic compensators here, the thermal clearances of the valves need to be adjusted. The source of the whistle under the hood is the generator belt, so you will have to buy a new one. The crumbs of the deteriorating catalyst can be sucked into the engine combustion chamber.
