Disadvantages of the FYJA engine
- The power units of this series are quite reliable, but require high-quality gasoline;
- From low-quality fuel, the life of candles is reduced up to 10,000 km of run;
- Exactly for the same reason, an expensive gasoline pump often fails;
- Duratec motors in European versions always bend valves when the timing belt breaks;
- There are no hydraulic lifters and every 100,000 km you need to adjust the valve clearance.
