Disadvantages, breakdowns and problems of CAWB
Most of the complaints here are about the timing chain, often it stretches already to 100 km
In second place is a large consumption of lubricant due to the fault of a clogged oil separator
There were cases of destruction of pistons from detonation, replacing them with forged ones helps
Due to soot on the intake valves, the engine speed at idle may begin to float.
Another reason for the unstable operation of the motor is the wedge of the dampers in the intake.
Ignition coils have a low resource, especially if you rarely change candles
