The weight of the 6A13TT engine according to the catalog is 205 kg. The engine number 6A13TT is located at the junction of the block and the gearbox. The tight layout of the engine compartment greatly hinders engine maintenance. Hydraulic lifters and idle control valves tend to fail more often here. The timing belt replacement schedule is every 90,000 km, but it sometimes breaks earlier. Turbines last long if the pressure relief valve stem is regularly lubricated. A drop in oil level in the system immediately leads to accelerated wear of the bearings.
