Other Engine Info
Original design
Most common problems:
Brake fade
The front-disc brake and rear drum brake setup can suffer from brake fade, especially under heavy use or prolonged braking.
Rear drum brake issues
Drum brakes are more susceptible to issues such as uneven wear, glazing, and difficulty in adjusting compared to disc brakes.
Rust and corrosion
Due to the age of the vehicle (1986), components in the brake system, especially the rear drum brakes, can suffer from rust and corrosion.
Oil leaks
The G13A engine, being an older design, may develop oil leaks from seals and gaskets over time.
Carburetor problems
The original design of the G13A engine includes a carburetor, which can have issues with clogging, improper adjustment, and wear.
Overheating
Older engines like the G13A can suffer from cooling system inefficiencies leading to potential overheating.
Ignition system wear
Components such as the distributor, spark plugs, and ignition wires can wear out and cause starting or running issues.
Fuel system issues
The fuel pump and fuel lines may degrade over time, leading to potential fuel delivery problems.
Exhaust system rust
The exhaust system components, including the muffler and pipes, are prone to rust and corrosion given the age of the vehicle.
Suspension wear
The suspension components on an older vehicle like the 1986 Suzuki Samurai can suffer from wear and tear, leading to a rough ride or handling issues.
