DIY oka 1113 engine repair

In detail: do-it-yourself repair of the oka 1113 engine from a real master for the site my.housecope.com.

Very often they call or write us with a question - “on the site you showed so many modified engines, but do you do a standard overhaul?
Answer - YES, we do!

But on the site earlier, somehow, reports with examples of major repairs were not laid out - we consider this work simple and did not write reports on it - it was taken for granted that we also carry out ordinary major repairs.

However, after the increased number of questions on this topic, we decided to show in detail the standard overhaul, so to speak, from the “chamber of weights and measures”.

What are the reasons for the standard overhaul, why not make tuning, forcing the engine? The answer is simple - not everyone needs tuning and not always. Often, the client is quite satisfied with the parameters of a serial engine, but its resource has been exhausted. The client needs a good and high-quality repair, the budget is often limited, and the resource needs a high one. We offer such clients typical engine overhaulhowever with some minor tweaks that dramatically affect the engine resource and have been tested by us for a long time on tuning projects.

Let's consider further such work in all details.

So, our client brings an Oka car, with a two-cylinder 11113 engine, a volume of 0.75 liters. The exact mileage is unknown, but about 100 thousand km. Symptoms - the candles are oily, there is also a strong oil throw through the crankcase ventilation into the air filter housing. Diagnosis - piston group.

Let's look at the car and the engine compartment. We discover that someone has already laid the fuel return line. We are also doing this kind of work. The line for draining the fuel into the tank on the Oka is also needed with a serial engine, especially in hot weather, in conditions of traffic jams.

Oka's car began to be produced a long time ago and has earned considerable popularity among domestic motorists. Of course, the technical characteristics of the car in question are far from the requirements of a modern motorist. Despite this, at one time Oka enjoyed great popularity due to its inherent economy. Owners of an Oka car of the early years of production often encounter malfunctions of the engine system. This is easily explained by the service life and operating conditions of the vehicle. One of the most effective ways to return the vehicle to work is to overhaul the Oka or VAZ 11113 engine. It is quite difficult to carry out repairs yourself, since many processes will require expensive equipment. In order to save money, you can prepare the Oka for a major overhaul with your own hands.

The benefits of the overhaul are clear. Large-scale repair of the engine will allow: to increase the service life of the vehicle, to increase the resource of the engine and to increase its performance.

The first stage of the overhaul is a detailed diagnosis of the internal combustion engine. It is quite difficult to carry out a check in a garage. In order to determine the productivity of an engine, you will need computer equipment and related skills.

To perform a complete restoration of the engine, it is necessary to dismantle the vehicle device. It is not so easy to carry out this procedure with your own hands, despite the small dimensions of the motor. To avoid damage to the engine, it is necessary to use a number of specialized equipment: support frames, hydraulic puller, engine hanging device.

After the engine has been successfully dismantled, it is necessary to start disassembling it. It is necessary to disassemble the engine strictly in a certain order in order to prevent damage to its individual parts.

After disassembly, it is necessary to proceed to the most important stage of the overhaul, which consists in troubleshooting individual components of the internal combustion engine. The main purpose of the overhaul is to restore the original parameters of the vehicle elements. Therefore, the only correct manual for repairing the Oka is the original instructions of the manufacturer.

In the course of a large-scale restoration of the VAZ 11113 engine, the following procedures are mandatory:

  • Restoring the parameters of the cylinder block VAZ 11113.
  • Repair of crankshaft and camshaft inlets.
  • Restoration of the bearing part of the crankshaft.
  • Processing the head of the VAZ 11113 cylinder block.
  • Restoring the tightness of the unit by welding.
  • Correction of the connecting rod geometry.
  • Replacement of all consumables and rubber seals.

Large-scale car repair requires appropriate skills and expensive equipment. Therefore, in order to perform the restoration, you will have to turn to professionals.

One of the most important stages of engine restoration is cylinder head processing. The vehicle manufacturer specifies the permissible head processing limit, which must be strictly adhered to when carrying out repairs. Before proceeding with a large-scale repair, it is necessary to study in detail the accompanying instructions of the manufacturer's plant. Also, it is imperative to check with the master to what depth the cylinder head will be processed. If the element is worn out above the permissible limit, further operation of the block head is prohibited. If processing and restoration of the cylinder head is possible, the work is accompanied by the obligatory replacement of the cylinder head gasket. In this case, it is also necessary to take into account the processing depth of the element in order to give the block its original tightness.

To restore the VAZ 11113 internal combustion engine to the factory parameters, it is recommended to use the services of proven workshops. Overhaul is a rather complicated and time-consuming procedure that must be carried out by qualified craftsmen. Before carrying out repairs, it is necessary to assess the cost of the restoration soundly. Some car enthusiasts forget to appreciate the difference between restoring an element and replacing it. With critical engine wear, repair costs may well exceed the primary cost of the internal combustion engine. If it is necessary to replace individual elements of the vehicle, it is worth using only original spare parts from the manufacturer.

After carrying out the repairs, it is worth starting to break in the car. During the running-in period, it is necessary to prevent an increased load on the propulsion system. Otherwise, the costs of restoring the engine will not pay off and the VAZ 11113 vehicle will again lose its performance.

Successful restoration of the VAZ 11113 car!
