Common in older engines due to worn gaskets and seals.

Over time, the timing belt can wear out and might break if not replaced as per the maintenance schedule.

Fuel injectors can become clogged or fail, causing poor fuel delivery and engine performance.

Aging hoses and radiator components can lead to coolant leaks, risking engine overheating.

Distributor, spark plugs, or ignition coil failures can result in misfires and poor engine performance.

The gasket can deteriorate, causing air leaks and poor engine efficiency.

Cracked or disconnected vacuum hoses can lead to rough idling and decreased engine performance.

The exhaust manifold can develop cracks, leading to exhaust leaks and increased engine noise.
