Disadvantages, breakdowns and problems of the EGE internal combustion engine
The main problem with this motor is rapid slagging due to overheating.
This leads to oil starvation and often results in loose bearings.
In second place here is a loose closing of the exhaust valves due to soot
Throttle valves are also dirty here, which leads to floating speed.
Antifreeze leaks regularly from the heater tube and from under the pump gasket
