Disadvantages of the GPDA/GPDC engine
- At first, the engines suffered from camshaft wear and chain stretching between them.
- Diesel’s most famous problem is its tendency to coke quickly.
- In second place in popularity is the regular burnout of gaskets under the nozzles.
- A clogged filter in the oil feed tube often leads to turbine failure.
- We also include leaks of antifreeze and oil from the engine hydraulic mounts to its weak points.
