The weight of the 2L-THE engine according to the catalog is 250 kg. The engine number 2L-THE is located at the junction of the block and the cylinder head. The main problem with these diesel engines is frequent cracking of the cylinder head due to overheating. The turbocharger and water pump in these engines also have a low lifespan. It is necessary to monitor the condition of the timing belt, as a breakage can cause valve damage. The fuel equipment of this motor by Denso is not familiar to every diesel mechanic. There are no hydraulic compensators, and the valve clearances need to be adjusted periodically.
