The 1.5-liter 8-valve VAZ 21083 carburetor engine was first shown in 1987 and, in fact, was a modification of the 2108 unit. This engine is the most voluminous and powerful member of the family.
The eighth family also includes internal combustion engines: 2108 and 21081.

A little about the design of the engine Lada 21083 8 valves
The insufficient power of the 1,3-liter internal combustion engine of the eighth family required the creation of a larger power unit. The designers bored out the base block for 82 mm pistons, thereby increasing the working volume by 200 cubes. As a result, the resulting motor added 9 hp. and 11 Nm of torque.
The VAZ 21083 engine number is located at the junction of the block with the head
It was on this engine that AvtoVAZ engineers first applied cylinder honing, which allowed them to practically abandon the mandatory engine break-in. And also the diameter of the intake valves was increased from 35 mm to 37 mm. The timing drive remained unchanged, however, when the belt breaks, the valve does not bend.

Owner reviews, oil change and internal combustion engine resource 21083
The most progressive motor of the Soviet period is more often praised than scolded by owners. It is quite economical, quite reliable and inexpensive to maintain. And minor problems that often arise during its operation are solved quickly and inexpensively, since vast experience in repair has already been accumulated.
It is recommended to change the oil and filter more often, ideally once every 5-7 thousand km, but at least every 10 kilometers. It is desirable to use semi-synthetics such as 000W-5, it includes three liters in the engine. Details on the video.
According to the manufacturer, the engine life is 125 kilometers, but in practice it is much higher. With proper care, about twice.
The most characteristic breakdowns of the internal combustion engine 21083
Common causes of motor overheating are thermostat failure, fan wedge, and coolant leaks.
The cause of the unstable operation of the motor is usually a malfunction of one of the components of the non-contact ignition system. Start the check with candles, high-voltage wires and the cover of the distributor.
Engine speed at idle most often floats due to the whims of a Solex carburetor. Perhaps one of the jets is clogged, or it is possible that the forced idle economizer is buggy.
Since this engine is prone to detonation, it is important to set the ignition timing correctly and try to use high-quality fuel. Unadjusted valves can also make a lot of noise under the hood.
Grease often oozes from the oil filter and valve cover.
