The weight of the TD27ETi engine according to the catalog is 250 kg. The engine number TD27ETi is located at the junction of the block and the cylinder head. All the most common breakdowns of this diesel engine are somehow related to the fuel injection pump. Cleaning the positioner usually helps with fluctuating engine speeds and loss of power. It is also periodically necessary to clean all the meshes and filters of the fuel system. The crankshaft position sensor and air flow sensor glitches cause many problems. Another weak point is the corrugated hose that goes from the air filter to the turbocharger.
