Engine Overview and Common Failures

The weight of the EJ206 engine according to the catalog is 170 kg. The weight of the fully assembled EJ206 engine is 160 kg. The engine is most afraid of a drop in oil pressure, as it can easily seize up. This unit not only consumes a lot of oil, but also leaks lubrication through the seals. It is important to monitor the condition of the timing belt, as a valve failure often causes it to bend. The cooling system is not known for its reliability, and the engine often overheats. The appearance of knocking in the 4th cylinder indicates that the engine has been fatally overheated.
