The weight of the ZM-DE engine according to the catalog is 140.9 kg. The engine number ZM-DE is located at the junction of the block and the gearbox. It is a structurally simple and reliable engine that only fears rare maintenance. Do not delay the replacement of spark plugs or you will have to spend money on ignition coils. The timing belt needs to be replaced every 60,000 km, but if it breaks, the valves won't bend. There are no hydraulic compensators here, so the valves need to be adjusted every 100,000 km. On high mileage, oil consumption is observed due to wear of the oil control caps.
