Hazard

The oil jet cooling nozzles may be damaged. Failure to cool the crankshaft and/or pistons can cause damage to them and result in the engine stalling. This can lead to a hole forming in the engine casing, causing oil leaks onto the exhaust pipe. This can cause a fire to start in the engine compartment, causing the vehicle to catch fire. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.
