| Defect | In the engine, due to insufficient durability of the bolt that secures the drive gear to the crankshaft, excessive stress can concentrate on the threaded part of the bolt during rapid acceleration, leading to cracks. Consequently, if use is continued, the bolt may break, causing the pulse rotor, which detects crankshaft rotation, to detach. This can lead to improper ignition and fuel injection, resulting in engine stalling. In the worst case, fragments of the broken bolt may become lodged, potentially locking the engine. |
