Engine Overview and Common Failures

The weight of the 4JB1 engine according to the catalog is 240 kg. The engine number 4JB1 is located at the junction of the block and the gearbox. These are very reliable diesel engines, analogues of which are often used in the industry. The fuel equipment from Zexel lasts a long time, but there are problems with its spare parts. Pay attention to the condition of the timing belt, as at least the rods will bend in case of its breakage. Sometimes it cuts off the gears of the oil pump and breaks the keyway on the crankshaft. According to the regulations, it is necessary to adjust the thermal clearances of the valves every 40,000 km.
