First, a little history. The domestic medium-tonnage GAZ-53 (popularly called the "GAZon") is known to many motorists. Still, after all, this model was used in various sectors of the economy of the times of the Soviet Union. The history of this truck begins in 1961. It was then that a new medium-duty truck first rolled off the Gorky conveyor. From then until today, these cars have not lost popularity.
But still, its units are not eternal, and sooner or later every owner of the GAZon faces such a problem as repairing an internal combustion engine. As practice shows, this part breaks down once a year. Of course, for today's market, this is a very short period, given that today's trucks must deliver goods smoothly at any time. But still, over such a long period of existence, the owners found severalways to postpone the repair of the GAZ-53 engine for an indefinite period (that is, to extend its life).
In order for the motor to last as long as possible, you must always carefully monitor the technical integrity of this unit, and if problems are found, fix them. What parts need to be checked? We'll figure it out now.
Particular attention should be paid to the cylinder head (this part is also marked with the cylinder head abbreviation). If necessary, tighten the mounting bolts and periodically clean the pistons from carbon deposits. Also, do not deprive the attention of the cooling system.
The use of high-quality fuel and lubricants will certainly extend the life of the unit, and the GAZ-53 engine will last at least 2 times longer. Of course, it is rather difficult to find high-quality gasoline at our gas stations, but there is another way - the installation of gas-balloon equipment of the "methane" type. By its properties, gas does not leave large deposits in the GAZ-53 engine, since its octane number is more than 100 (and its price is several times less than gasoline). By the way, if the internal combustion engine is not cleaned of carbon deposits in time, the truck will consume much more fuel and at the same time drive poorly.
As for the choice of oils for the GAZ-53 engine, it is better to trust foreign manufacturers here. Of course, not everyone will dare to pour expensive Mobil 1 or Castrol oil into an ordinary GAZon, but there is simply no other option.
Also for an increased service life of the GAZ-53 enginemust have only serviceable piston rings, as well as bearing shells. And it is quite easy to determine their malfunction - just look at the oil pressure sensor. If the arrow is below 100 kilopascals, this indicates that one of the above parts needs to be replaced.
Conclusion
So, so that the repair of GAZ-53 engines is not required every year, you need to fill only high-quality oil into the engine, do not postpone the replacement of rings and liners for later, clean the system from carbon deposits in a timely manner and, if possible, contact the service station with a request to install a gas equipment for your truck. Be sure - GAZon will thank you with a long and uninterrupted engine operation!
