Disadvantages of the Fiat 350A1000 engine
- The main problem is the oil burner due to the rapid wear of rings and caps;
- In the units of the first years, the crankshaft pulley key was cut off and then it slipped;
- Due to contamination of the throttle or fuel pump grid, engine speed often floats;
- The engine mounts, starter and thermostat are also distinguished by a low resource;
- Every 50 thousand kilometers, do not forget to adjust the thermal clearances of the valves.
