Disadvantages of the EP6CDTX engine
- This turbine unit is extremely demanding on the quality of fuel and oil used;
- Many problems are associated with accelerated carbon formation, especially on valves;
- Almost always, a progressive oil burner follows engine coking;
- A thin timing chain is often stretched already to a run of 80 – 100 thousand kilometers;
- The electromagnetic clutch in the pump drive can fail even at 50,000 km;
- The performance of the phase control system depends on the condition of the oil channels;
- The cause of the failure of the high-pressure fuel pump and other components of the fuel system in bad gasoline.
