I would also like to know the probable cause of the problem. :) Nevertheless, whatever the cause, it's not the fault of Zongshen. The RX3 employs U.S. Delphi parts for the entire EFI system. ;)

If you change the engine oil regularly, and keep the valves adjusted, I'm confident these engines will last 100,000 miles, and more. ;)
