Can blocking the exhaust pipe cause the engine to stall?

[KiraMarie]

Blocking the exhaust pipe will cause the car to stall, and even if the engine is started, it will eventually stall due to engine malfunction. The car engine operates by burning fuel, and the exhaust gases produced from the combustion of fuel and air are expelled through the exhaust pipe. If the exhaust pipe is blocked, the exhaust gases cannot be expelled from the vehicle. This leads to an excessive buildup of exhaust gases in the combustion chamber, reducing the combustion efficiency of fuel and air, ultimately resulting in the inability to sustain combustion. Consequently, the engine stalls. If this situation occurs, it should be repaired promptly. If the exhaust pipe is blocked, the engine will have to expend more energy to expel the exhaust gases, leading to a reduction in engine power and making the car feel sluggish. More seriously, if this persists over time, the accumulation of exhaust gases inside the engine will lead to excessive carbon deposits, ultimately damaging the engine.
