Can Secondary Ignition Be Detected?
1 Answers
Secondary ignition can be detected. If the vehicle stalls after driving through water and someone manually uses the starter to ignite and operate the engine, this is considered a secondary start. Precautions for driving through water are as follows: When encountering standing water on the road, slow down and assess the water level. If the water reaches two-thirds of the tire height, driving through it poses a certain risk, and it is advised not to force passage. Maintain a low speed when driving through water, as higher speeds can raise the water level, increasing the actual depth of the water. Additionally, ensure you do not stop, shift gears, or reduce throttle, maintaining medium-to-high throttle at low speed to pass through. If the engine stalls while driving through water, do not attempt to restart it. In such cases, it is likely that water has entered the engine, and restarting will only cause more severe damage.
