Disadvantages of the Ford SGA engine
- Despite the rather high forcing, these power units are quite reliable;
- Most engine problems are related to overheating, most often due to a pump failure;
- Also, many car owners are faced with the failure of the fuel pump;
- It is necessary to clean the crankcase ventilation regularly, otherwise grease will ooze;
- Cheap oil greatly reduces the life of hydraulic lifters and hydraulic tensioners.
