Can the engine still be used after cylinder explosion?

After the engine cylinder explosion, the car cannot continue to drive. The relevant introduction about car cylinder explosion is as follows: Methods to deal with car cylinder explosion: First, you need to ensure that the engine is in a cooled state and turned off, remove the radiator cap to ensure the engine is cool. Turn off the engine and let it cool for 5 minutes, then drain the liquid in the radiator. Preventive measures for car engine cylinder explosion: Park the car in a shady place. Avoid prolonged exposure of the vehicle to the sun, long-term driving under high temperatures, etc., which often lead to car tire blowouts or boiling over. If during driving, the temperature gauge needle points to the high-temperature zone, the car should be stopped immediately to lower the vehicle's temperature.
Oh man, I've experienced engine seizure a few times. Basically, it means the engine's internals are toast—like pistons seizing or cylinder walls getting scored. This usually happens due to overheating or oil starvation. Once it seizes, the engine will make grinding noises, vibrate violently, or just stall. If you try to force-start it, you'll only turn the problem into a full rebuild or complete engine replacement. My advice? Shut it off immediately, don't drive it, and get it towed to a shop. Repairs can be crazy expensive—new engines start at several grand—but if your car's still worth something, a rebuild might salvage it. Bottom line: a seized engine is done for. Safety first, never gamble with your life.
