"Tavria" refers to cars of the 2nd class (budget models). Initially, it was produced at a Soviet plant, but later the bulk began to leave the assembly line of the same, but already Ukrainian ZAZ. The first exclusive piece became the "parent" for a huge number of different models and their modifications, which were combined into a giant series.

You can easily remember about 40 different cars... It is worth noting that they were in high demand among the domestic buyer. The end of the large-scale release took place in 2007.

Development history of ZAZ "Tavria-1102"

The development of a new (at that time) car "Tavria" began due to the need to replace the models. By the 70s, two variants of the car were created in the form of a sedan and a hatchback. But production permission was received only 10 years later. After the exit of a large party, the leadership changed the task of this machine. It was agreed that the model should be similar to the leader of European sales (we are talking about "Ford Fiesta"). An experienced designer working at a plant in Zaporozhye has repeatedly said that the American "child" has nothing in common with advertising. If bright posters and videos made an ideal car out of "Fiesta", then in reality it did not meet many of the declared characteristics. Therefore, technically bypassing it was not a very difficult and time-consuming process.

The Soviet auto industry constantly demanded from the manufacturer to improve the "Tavria", setting it more and more difficult tasks and goals. The first production model to be sold throughout the Union was a copy released in November 1987.

Specifications ZAZ-1102

"Tavria" has a 3-door hatchback. Passengers fit 5 people. The weight of the car is just over 1100 kg. The length of the vehicle is 3700 mm, the width is 1550 mm, and the height is 1400 mm.

The engines have a volume of 1.1, 1.2 and 1.3 liters. Power is 53, 58 and 63 hp. with. respectively. Maximum acceleration (speed) - 145, 158 and 165 km / h, depending on the unit. You can gain 100 km / h from a standstill in 15-16 seconds.

Detailed description of the vehicle design

The figure below shows a diagram of the ZAZ-1102 (we are talking about electrical wiring).

Lineup "Tavria"

The ZAZ-110240 car began production in 1991. Production continued until 1997. In this model, the trunk has expanded volumes. There is a side passenger sofa. Unlike the sedan, these specimens differ in carrying capacity. The car rolled off the assembly line for the second time in 1999. Its predecessor, ZAZ-1102, was already far behind in development from the described model. A new version differed installed engine... A large-scale release of a sanitary modification was planned, but the desired did not come true.

The Tavria cargo model was named ZAZ-110260. There were no passenger seats, except for sitting next to the driver. The car is capable of carrying loads up to 300 kg.

The next interesting model is ZAZ-110260-30. In the roof of this modification, you could find a small hole for the antenna. The car had a distinctive feature - the presence of a function automatic switching on low fan speed. Special plugs were installed on the bumpers.

"Slavuta"

"Slavuta" rolled off the assembly line from 1999 to 2011. It belongs to category "B". Installed body type liftback. The engines with which these models were equipped are designed for 1.1, 1.2, 1.3 liters (carburetor), as well as 1.2 and 1.3 liters (injection). The development of "Slavuta", which is associated with the ZAZ-1102, began due to the fact that "Dana" did not meet the modern requirements of drivers at that time, due to which it was not in great demand. Almost six months later, 1.1 liters was replaced by an analogue of 1.2 liters. And in 2002, the most expensive model for the entire production period appeared on the markets - a car with injection motor 1.3 l. However, the latter option was not suitable for sale due to the severity of environmental standards. In January 2011, the plant stopped producing Slavuta.

The body has 5 doors, it is made of all-metal material, has a closed and load-bearing type. Rear glass opens together with the tailgate. The vehicle weighs 800 kg. The volume of the tank is 38 liters.

The engines that were installed at the "Slavuta" were developed and produced at the Melitopol plant. All units are designed for 4 cylinders. located at the back on the left. Ignition (ZAZ-1102 is equipped with a similar system) has a battery structure and contactless voltage at 12 volts.

"Dana"

The assembly of the car began in 1994. The last copy rolled off the assembly line in 2010. "Dana" is the owner of a 5-door body, which has significant differences from the original model. Although it was built on the ZAZ-1102, but the view is more new car has an original and organic design.

V standard configuration the car is capable of carrying loads up to 200 kg with five passengers in the cabin. One could get acquainted with the engine, which was installed on the model, while driving the original "Tavria". Initially, it was planned to equip Dana with a unit with a capacity of 60 Horse power, which was designed for 5 thousand revolutions per minute, but for some reason, the car with this engine never entered mass production.

The car belongs to the class "B". It is installed four-wheel drive... The gearbox is mechanical, and the engine is carbureted.

"Pickup"

This car is a modification of the original Dana model. Any customer could custom-fit a soft or hard top (optional) that easily turns the van into a haulage vehicle. The compartment, where all the luggage is placed, is separated from the driver's and passenger seats due to an ordinary partition with glass. The production of "Pickup", which is based on the car ZAZ "Tavria-1102", began in 1992 and lasted right up to 2014.

The units installed on the machine had different characteristics with regard to volume: from 1.1 to 1.3 liters.

Most of the details were borrowed from Dana. They differ among themselves rear bumper, lanterns of the same part of the car, a window in the partition (in a newer version, a lattice appeared on it). "Pickup" received updated side mirrors and an awning that can be installed on the grille of the cargo compartment, as well as a suspension. The repair of this model, like the repair of the ZAZ-1102, does not require much time, effort and money. Therefore, such a machine is in high demand.

Repair of Tavria, how to be and who to entrust?

Repair of "Tavria" (as well as repair of "Slavuta") is not such a difficult process. This is not a BMW or Mercedes-Benz. Everything is simple here. If not for the totally poor quality of parts and assembly, service, this car would be one of the most reliable cars, by the way. Well, like all small cars. Therefore, I will offer you to repair this machine yourself. This is not a fiction, the service will not want to serve you. The car is too unattractive. from the point of view of locksmiths. After all, for work on different cars In principle, the money for the service station is not paid much, and then they are different. I'm not talking about official stations that re-mount Ferrari and Land Cruisers, I'm talking about normal stations. So it turns out that the repair of an old Mercedes is easier and faster than Tavria, and the first to promise big money, and significantly, because the brand is more prestigious.

And yet ... when buying this car you should clearly understand - Tavria / Slavuta / Date and repair, in principle, are indistinguishable concepts. True, there are unique people who manage to achieve long-term operation from the car without breakdowns. Honor and glory to them, but for the majority this unit breaks down, and constantly. You can see how and what is happening in the Log section of my site. In short - the cause of breakdowns, - incorrect operation, then the unreliability of parts, and only after that - mistakes in the design of the machine.

Brand - books you can still buy

Rank Publishing publishes a repair manual, which contains all the necessary information. I recommend buying this book "on paper" rather than downloading it from various sites. Why? It's very simple, there may be no Internet on the way, but it will be necessary to repair it! Here is a link for you, delivery is available both in Ukraine and in Russia. By the way, there is another book in the catalog, only for 1102. Take both. For such pennies, how much they cost now - you can spend money! By the way, I ordered the first one in 2007, and the last one in 2009, when I wrote this ...

Rice. 2. The main dimensions of the vehicle (height is given without load)

Car ZAZ-1102 "Tavria"(Fig. 1) developed at the Zaporozhye Automobile Plant. The first batch of these cars was produced by the plant in 1987. The production of these cars is increasing every year.
In parallel with the base model ZAZ-1102 "Tavria" the plant produces cars various configurations that differ from the base one with a fabric carpet on the passenger compartment floor, seats with combined upholstery, installation of head restraints on the backs of the front seats, a windscreen washer and wiper on the tailgate, moldings on the sidewalls of the body, etc. Basic model Tavria is complemented by three modifications of hand-operated vehicles for disabled people.
Car ZAZ-11027 "Tavria" designed for disabled people who have one leg injured, but have healthy hands.
The car is equipped with:
a special pedal (under the right or left foot);
double-lever switch for light signaling and windshield wipers; switch "mass".
Car ZAZ-11028 "Tavria" intended for disabled people who have both legs amputated or injured, but have healthy hands.
The car is equipped with:
manual control throttle valves carburetor;
a special electrovacuum clutch release drive;
manually operated hydraulic brake control;
double-lever switch for light signaling and windshield wipers; switch "mass";
a special handle (on the gearbox control lever) with a button for disengaging the electric vacuum drive for disengaging the clutch.
Car ZAZ-11029 "Tavria" designed for disabled people with one leg and one arm.
The car is equipped with:
a special pedal for controlling the throttle valves of the carburetor; an electrovacuum clutch release drive;
special hydraulic brake pedal;
parking brake control lever for right or left hand;
a special steering wheel with a slip ring on the shaft.
A horn switch, a turn switch, a headlight switch, a wiper and washer switch, a gear selection ring are mounted on the steering shaft;
special foot switch for transmission;
switch "mass";
a special speed limit sign on the front and rear windows.
Car ZAZ-1102 "Tavria" is a model of an especially small class (Fig. 2), which is fundamentally different from its predecessors. Each detail at Tavria is original in terms of layout and the most important technical solutions and corresponds to modern trends in the development of the automotive industry.
The front-wheel drive scheme, more modern, replaced the rear-engine one, which was previously used on all ZAZ cars. The power unit, consisting of the engine, gearbox and final drive, located in the front of the body, is located across the engine compartment.

This arrangement and the transmission of torque to the front wheels made it possible to create a fairly spacious salon for 4 ... 5 people, have a two-volume, easily transformable luggage compartment in passenger and cargo-passenger versions.
When transporting large luggage backseat folds and the useful volume of the trunk increases almost threefold.
The body of the car is wedge-shaped, three-door, two-volume, hatchback type. Thanks to the large side doors, curved side windows, front anatomical seats with stepless backrest tilt adjustment and a wide range of longitudinal movement and rather wide rear seats, convenient entry and exit of passengers sitting in front and rear, convenient and comfortable seating and placement are provided.
The most important indicator of a car is its economy. This is achieved primarily thanks to an engine with a new combustion process, a high compression ratio, a two-chamber carburetor and a switched off fan in the cooling system. Affected here and the relatively low weight of the car, the new design of tires, five-speed gearbox overdrive gears, aerodynamically improved body shape.

Thanks to the front drive wheels and a rack and pinion steering gear, the Tavria has a fairly high directional stability, in general, the handling characteristics are noticeably improved, especially on slippery road surfaces. Front-wheel drive has created the basis for safer driving. It was this feature that contributed to the development and distribution of front-wheel drive vehicles.

"Liquid" was fundamentally new for the Melitopol designers, because until that time all Zaporozhets were equipped with V-shaped "air vents". The main work on the design of the engine for front wheel drive car especially small class were completed in 1979, and in 1982, after acceptance tests, the State Commission recommended this unit for serial production. Alas, for a number of reasons, motors for the new Tavria began to be mass-produced in Melitopol only in 1988 - like the car itself in Zaporozhye.

By the XXVII Congress of the CPSU in 1986, the Kommunar plant undertook to produce an experimental batch of thirty copies of the ZAZ-1102

A good engine with a difficult fate

What was interesting about the engine of the first front-wheel drive car from Zaporozhye? Firstly, the Melitopol unit was distinguished by a very modern design. In terms of the overall level, MeMZ-245 was not particularly inferior to the "top of Soviet engine building" - the VAZ-2108 engine. Like the Sputnik unit, the "Tavricheskiy" engine was equipped with a Solex carburetor with a forced economizer system in order to save money. idle move... Another parallel is that the timing mechanism is driven by a belt, not a chain. Ignition - contactless, with a switch - again, as in the Togliatti G8.

Relatively high compression ratio (9.5) meant operation on gasoline with an octane rating of at least 91. In general, feel the difference with the previous Melitopol air vents!

MeMZ-245 in section

At the same time, the engine with a volume of 1091 "cubes" developed sufficient power for Tavria in 53 liters. with. For comparison: the similar in volume 1,100-cc engine of the "downsizing" version was two "horses" weaker.

There was also a deformed version of the MeMZ-2451 with a reduced compression ratio (7.9). The engine developed 47 liters. with. and at the same time could run on A-76 gasoline.

Thus, in terms of power-to-weight ratio, the 1.1-liter machine was not much inferior to the 1,300 cc Sputnik, but in a loaded state, a smaller working volume and maximum power were still felt.

However, in comparison with Zhiguli and Muscovites, the dynamic qualities of the ZAZ-1102 did not leave much to be desired: the machine picked up a "hundred" from a place in about 16 seconds, and the maximum speed reached 145 kilometers per hour. The high efficiency of Tavria with the MeMZ-245 engine was declared: according to the manufacturer, at a speed of 90 km / h, the consumption was 4.6 l / 100 km, and in the urban cycle - 6.8 l / 100 km. Wherein real expense fuel, depending on driving conditions, ranged from 6 to 8 liters for every hundred kilometers.

In the photo: ZAZ-1102

As it turned out, with timely maintenance and the correct fuels and lubricants used, the engine was able to last over 100,000 kilometers before the first repair - of course, provided that the infamous "Zhiguli" valve oil seals had not failed before.

The engine turned out to be quite "funny" - that is, it easily spun up to the maximum speed (5,600 rpm) and at the same time was quite quiet if you compare its sound with the roar of the previous Melitopol air-cooled units.

After the collapse of the USSR, the Melitopol Motor Plant began independent work on a range of engines based on the same MeMZ-245, which remained the only unit for Tavria and its modifications.

Even then, the designers conceived an unusual line, which was supposed to open ... the so-called "rabbit" - a three-cylinder 0.9-liter engine. In addition, it was decided to equip the time-tested Tavria engine with a fuel injection system, as well as to master modifications with a working volume increased to 1.3-1.4 liters. Already in 1994, prototypes were developed, which were even assigned the appropriate indices - 1.25-liter MeMZ-310, as well as MeMZ-315 and MeMZ-317 with a volume of 1.4 liters. Interestingly, the latter was conceived as a 16-valve version of the "three hundred and fifteenth" engine. In a word, there is an obvious desire of Ukrainian designers to follow the same scheme (an increase in the working volume and the number of valves), according to which the units of the "eighth" family at VAZ were modernized.

Alas, as the second president of modern Ukraine, Leonid Danilovich Kuchma, correctly noted in the title of his book, Ukraine is not Russia. In 1993-1994, tests of prototypes and prototypes of promising engines were often disrupted due to ... a banal lack of suitable fuel!

In those difficult times for the countries of the former USSR, new engines were developed in Melitopol, among other things, in order to increase exports, which would make it possible to receive such a coveted currency at that time. Indeed, in conditions of hyperinflation, barter transactions, the constant collapse of the rate of coupon-karbovanets and other "delights" of the first years of the new state's existence, only foreign exchange earnings could allow the enterprise to stay afloat. That is why, together with Siemens, a single-point (mono, as it is sometimes called) fuel injection system with an exhaust catalytic converter was developed.

Dreams, dreams ... In practice, the plant experienced constant problems with the production of conventional engines MeMZ-245. For example, the Michurinsk plant in 1994 refused to supply the Ukrainians piston rings- I had to get out and buy parts ... in Bulgaria.

Alas, in the period from 1993 to 1997, things at MeMZ went so badly that many talented and competent employees simply left it, unable to withstand salary delays, theft and marriage. The quality of the products at that time was so low that it was not always possible to assemble one normal engine suitable for installation on a commercial vehicle out of two ready-made motors of that time.

At ZAZ, they tried in various ways to solve the painful "heart issue": at that time, the factory workers tried to "implant" Tavria with an alternative power unit- for example, a 1.3-liter VAZ-2108 engine assembled with a four-speed transmission, which led to a denser arrangement of units under the hood and forced the designers to remove the "spare wheel" from there. The model received the ZAZ-1122 index, but due to the fact that VAZ supplied power units in extremely limited quantities, the Tavria with an eight engine did not receive much distribution.

Another attempt of the Zaporozhye enterprise "to get away from MeMZA" is a four-cylinder bottom-shaft engine FIAT-903 with a volume of 0.9 liters and a capacity of 45 liters. with. The model with the ZAZ-1140 index was even less common than the version with the Russian engine, because the purchase of foreign units required the same currency, the lack of which at that time was so acutely experienced by the Ukrainian plant ...

New time - new motors

After the Koreans came to AvtoZAZ and the establishment of the AvtoZAZ-Daewoo JV in March 1998, the Melitopol Motor Plant was incorporated into the enterprise on the rights of the AvtoZAZ-Motor KhRP.

This move made it possible not only to keep the enterprise afloat, but also to revive it. Indeed, for the first time in 11 years since the start of production of Tavria and engines for it, MeMZ mastered a whole family of units, which were a further development of the same "two hundred and forty-fifth".

The Korean partners managed to "breathe a second life" into both Tavria and its power unit manufactured in Melitopol. The time-tested 1.1-liter MeMZ-245 remained in service, but thanks to high-quality components and a new OTK, it has become much more reliable and durable, not much inferior in terms of motor resource VAZ units... According to official information of those years, the return of defective engines from AvtoZAZ decreased by an order of magnitude - up to 0.3%, and earlier the factory workers simply put up with an outright marriage of power units, just not to stop the conveyor.

The "old new" motor was used on the basic versions of the "improved" Tavria with the NOVA attachment, while Slavuta's liftback received new motors with increased displacement, which were then "inherited" by Tavria. By the way, at one time everything happened at the VAZ in about the same way: the most prestigious sedan model 21099 was originally equipped with only the most powerful one and a half liter engine.

Using the developments of the early nineties, with the technical and financial support of Korean partners in Melitopol, they finally began to produce engines of increased displacement and power.

By applying a new piston group and crankshaft with a stroke increased from 67 mm to 73.5 mm, the working volume succeeded " with little blood"Raise up to 1.2 liters. This unit under the MeMZ-2457 index with a classic power system (carburetor) with a capacity of 58 hp. at the beginning of the 2000s became the basic modification of the engine for Slavuta.

It is interesting that the standard "tavromotor" with a volume of 1.1 liters with the MeMZ-245 index by replacing piston group and the crankshaft can be easily turned into a 1.2-liter one, and such an upgrade will not affect the resource in any way, because all the parts used in this case are factory-made! In practice, many Ukrainian motorists overhaul engine added to it a little "cubes" and "horses" in such a simple and rather budgetary way.

In 2001, MeMZ began production of the 1.3-liter MeMZ-301/3011 engine. The increase in the next 100 "cubes" of the working volume was achieved by increasing the piston diameter from 72 to 75 mm. The engine is structurally somewhat different from the previous MeMZ motors of the 245 family: an engine block with an index of 301-1002013 with thicker walls, due to an increase in the diameter of the piston group, was deprived of the cooling channels between each pair of cylinders (1-2 and 3-4). Also, the motor was different from less voluminous counterparts. camshaft with wider valve timing for better cylinder filling.

Such a 1.3-liter engine was designed to be installed not only in cars of the "Tavricheskiy" family, but also ... Daewoo lanos... The "budget" modification combined a "foreign car body" with a Ukrainian power unit, which had a favorable effect on the price. It is no coincidence that the L-1300, which later received its own name "Sens", became a very popular Ukrainian car, which was able to take away many buyers from VAZ products.

Of course, at MeMZ, in cooperation with the Dimitrovgrad Automobile Unit Plant (DAAZ, Russia), they actively worked on the introduction of a more modern and progressive power supply system - distributed injection, because without it it was impossible to fit even into the minimum emission standards of Euro-2.

Both the 1.2-liter modification and the "301st" engine were transferred to the "injector". MeMZ-2477 with a volume of 1.2 liters with a maximum power of 63 liters. with. is a derivative of the carburetor version with the index 2457. This motor turned out to be the most economical of the entire family when driving at a uniform speed along the highway.

The ignition system (SZ) of the vehicle includes many nodes and devices interconnected. One of the main components of such a system in ZAZ cars is a distributor. How to correctly install the Tavria distributor, what malfunctions are characteristic of this device and how to repair it, we will describe below.

In what cases is ignition installation necessary?

Adjustment and repair of the ignition system

How to properly adjust the system operation? If you do not know how to set the ignition on Tavria, then we are ready to teach you this. The principle of setting SZ is to change the position of the valve in relation to the installation volute. Before you start tuning, you need to open the hood and look at this snail and distributor. Put labels on each element - this will allow everything to be returned to its place if you make mistakes during the repair process.

The setup procedure looks like this:

1. Get behind the wheel, put the key in the ignition of your Tavria and start the engine.
2. Then, on a running power unit, you need to slightly crank Switchgear- first in one direction and then in the other direction. At this moment, you need to listen to how the engine works, whether the dynamics of the revolutions has changed. You need to catch the moment when the engine speed will be at its maximum. Usually this is not a specific point, but a place in half a division on the site. The most optimal ignition is in this range. If the power unit of your car works with detonation, then try setting a later ignition.
3. Then the distribution unit must be fixed in this position, and then diagnose the internal combustion engine's performance in different operating modes.
4. When the distributor is fixed, you need to ride a little. Accelerate the vehicle to approximately 60 km / h, shift into fourth gear, and then slow down to approximately 40 km / h and press the accelerator pedal sharply again. At this moment, detonation should appear, but literally for 1-2 seconds, no more. If so, then we can assume that half of the work is done.
5. In addition, you also need to check and internal combustion engine power... In the event that the engine power is not particularly high, then you can try again to adjust the distributor drive. In this case, you will need tweezers, as it will make this task much easier with its help. If you look at the distributor, you will notice that the cut under it on the drive is slightly offset to the side, so you should not make mistakes and install the drive incorrectly (the author of the video is a channel).

You can also adjust the distributor itself, the essence of this task is to change the level of tension of the weights, as well as setting the vacuum regulator. But keep in mind that to implement this procedure, you will need a special stand, which can not always be found even at a service station.

Device malfunctions and remedies

For what reasons the distributor may refuse to work and how can the situation be corrected:

1. The attachment of the distribution unit has weakened, which led to the incorrect operation of the motor. Due to the loosened fastening, the lead angle could be lost, which in turn would lead to a difficult start, a decrease in power, as well as unstable idle speed. Fuel consumption will also increase. In this case, you just need to tighten the screw that secures the device using a wrench.
2. Connected to the distribution mechanism high voltage wires in the wrong sequence. This can lead to the fact that the internal combustion engine will not start at all or will start, but at the same time pops will be heard from under the hood, the car will go jerky. Open up service book and specify how the high-voltage wires should be connected, reconnect them.
3. Another malfunction is the broken mechanism cover. As practice shows, the breakdown site is usually clearly visible even with the naked eye. Due to breakdown, current leakage is possible, which contributes to malfunctions in the operation of the internal combustion engine. In this case, the only option would be to replace the cover.
4. Oxidation or destruction of contacts has occurred in the distributor cover. If we are talking about oxidation, then you can clean the contacts with a solvent, if the problem is destruction, then the elements must be replaced.
5. The contact ember on the cover is worn out, and the motor will be difficult to start. Either the coal or the cover as a whole is replaced.
6. Hall sensor breakage. Such a malfunction will lead to the impossibility of starting the motor, the controller should be replaced. It is possible that there was a break in the wiring from this controller to the connector, then the device needs to be checked more carefully.
7. The upper bearing is worn out. Unstable idle speed... The problem is solved by replacing the roller with a centrifugal regulator, as well as a bearing device. Or the distribution mechanism will have to be changed completely.
8. The vacuum advance regulator is out of order. With such a malfunction, the transport power unit will not be able to pull the car uphill, the engine power will significantly decrease, as well as its throttle response. This is due to the fact that the regulator itself is used in order to set the lead angle a little earlier in the high load mode on the motor. The reason may lie in the lack of tightness of the body of this device or in the jamming of the nozzle from the carburetor connected to it. Also, the problem may be a malfunctioning swivel plate. The solution to the problem may be to eliminate problems with tightness or replace failed components. In extreme cases, you can completely replace the regulator.
9. Problems in the operation of the centrifugal regulator. The symptoms will be similar. As for the reasons, it is necessary to check the springs of the weights, they could weaken or fail as a result of wear, the damper rings of the weights could also be lost, the weights themselves can jam. It is necessary to dismantle the distributor and replace the regulator itself, since its repair in most cases is impractical.
