Disadvantages, breakdowns and problems of the BRN internal combustion engine
This engine is afraid of overheating, so keep an eye on its cooling
Constant overheating and low-quality oil contribute to the formation of scoring
Seizures in the cylinders lead not only to knocking, but also to impressive oil consumption.
A decrease in lubrication pressure in the system often results in turning the liners
After 200 km, timing chains can stretch, and to replace them, you need to remove the internal combustion engine
