Engine Overview and Common Failures

The weight of the Mazda B5 engine according to the catalog is 121.7 kg. The engine number of the Mazda B5 is located at the junction of the block and the gearbox. It is a very simple and reliable engine, all its problems come from old age. The original carburetor is difficult to adjust, but most often an analog one is already installed. On forums, people often complain about grease leaks and low lifespan of spark plugs. According to the maintenance schedule, the timing belt should be replaced every 60,000 km, but it does not cause valve damage. Hydraulic lifters do not like cheap oil and may start ticking before reaching 100,000 km.
