What are the components of an engine?

An engine consists of "two major mechanisms" and "five major systems." The two major mechanisms are the crank-connecting rod mechanism and the valve train mechanism. The five major systems are the fuel supply system, lubrication system, cooling system, ignition system, and starting system. Working principle of an engine: The working chamber of a reciprocating piston internal combustion engine is called the cylinder, and the inner surface of the cylinder is cylindrical. The piston that reciprocates inside the cylinder is hinged to one end of the connecting rod via the piston pin, while the other end of the connecting rod is connected to the crankshaft. The crankshaft is supported by bearings on the engine block and can rotate within the bearings, forming the crank-connecting rod mechanism. When the piston reciprocates inside the cylinder, the connecting rod drives the crankshaft to rotate. Engine working process: Intake stroke: The piston moves downward in the cylinder, the intake valve opens, and air and fuel are drawn in. Compression stroke: The piston moves upward, compressing the mixture of air and fuel, which is then ignited by the spark plug. Power stroke: The compressed air-fuel mixture is ignited and expands, pushing the piston downward, and the connecting rod drives the crankshaft to rotate. Exhaust stroke: The piston is pushed downward by the expanding gases, and after reaching the bottom, the movement of another piston in the cylinder causes the piston to rise, with the exhaust valve opening to expel the exhaust gases.

What does engine cleaning with an IV bag mean?

Automotive IV bag cleaning is a method for cleaning the car engine and related components, targeting areas such as the intake tract, throttle valve, intake valve, fuel injector, and inside the cylinder. During the IV bag cleaning process, a bottle-shaped tool is suspended above the engine. The cleaning agent is poured into this tool and then introduced into the engine through a tube to remove carbon deposits. Functions of automotive IV bag cleaning: The purpose of automotive IV bag cleaning is to remove carbon deposits. After prolonged operation, certain components in gasoline can condense into carbon deposits, which accumulate over time, forming a black, coal-like substance. These deposits adhere to areas such as the intake tract, throttle valve, intake valve, fuel injector, and inside the cylinder, affecting the engine's normal operation. Excessive carbon buildup can lead to various issues, such as difficulty starting the engine, sluggish acceleration, excessive exhaust emissions, increased fuel consumption, fluctuating engine speeds, and poor low-speed acceleration, among others.

What are the precautions after an engine overhaul?

Precautions for engine maintenance include that the water pump fan belt is not necessarily the tighter the better; do not use a blowtorch to bake the oil pan; and do not blindly remove the engine thermostat. The following are specific introductions: The water pump fan belt is not necessarily the tighter the better: A tighter belt is not necessarily better. An overly tight belt will not only cause it to stretch or break, shortening the belt's service life, but also due to excessive tension, it can lead to deformation and bending of the generator shaft and water pump shaft, as well as early damage to the bearings. Do not use a blowtorch to bake the oil pan: Using a blowtorch to bake the oil pan in winter will not only cause chemical changes in the additives in the engine oil, losing their original performance, but also cause the oil to coagulate and the oil pan to deform, easily leading to a fire. Do not blindly remove the engine thermostat: If the thermostat is removed blindly due to high engine temperature, the coolant can only circulate in a large loop and cannot regulate the cooling intensity, making it difficult to ensure the engine operates at a suitable temperature. Instead, the engine will often operate at low temperatures, resulting in decreased engine power, accelerated wear, and increased fuel consumption.

What does an exclamation mark inside the engine mean?

An exclamation mark inside the engine indicates the engine malfunction indicator light. There are primarily seven reasons why it illuminates: Sensor malfunction: The sensors referred to here include coolant temperature, crankshaft position, air flow, intake air temperature, oxygen sensors, etc. When these sensors are damaged, have poor contact, or experience signal interruption, the vehicle's ECU cannot accurately obtain engine data, triggering the engine malfunction light. Fuel quality issues: If fuel and engine oil are not added according to the manufacturer's requirements, it may cause engine wear, leading to the illumination of the malfunction light. Poor combustion of the air-fuel mixture: Poor combustion can result in engine carbon buildup or knocking. When detected by the oxygen sensor and reported to the ECU, the malfunction light will illuminate as a warning. Issues such as faulty spark plugs, ignition coils, fuel pumps, or clogged fuel lines can all cause poor combustion of the air-fuel mixture. Turbocharging problems: The intake turbocharging pipeline and turbocharger can also trigger the engine malfunction light. The most common issue is turbocharger damage, accompanied by symptoms such as oil leaks, high oil consumption, reduced power, metallic noises, or blue/black smoke from the exhaust. Intake problems: If the vehicle's intake system malfunctions, it may lead to engine pipeline blockages, and in severe cases, trigger the engine malfunction light. A dirty air filter that is not regularly cleaned can cause intake issues. Exhaust problems: Exhaust system faults can also cause the engine malfunction light to illuminate. Common causes include faulty rear oxygen sensors, catalytic converters, exhaust camshafts, and bearing wear, with catalytic converter issues being the most frequent. The use of leaded gasoline, lead or silicon-based lubricant additives, physical damage to the catalytic converter, or fuel system malfunctions can all contribute to catalytic converter failure. Anti-theft system malfunction: If the vehicle's electronic anti-theft system fails or if the anti-theft controller does not match the engine ECU, the anti-theft system can prevent the engine from operating normally, accompanied by the illumination of the engine malfunction light. If the engine malfunction light is on, follow these steps: First, check if the engine is running normally. Look for symptoms such as shaking or black smoke. If present, avoid restarting the engine. Note: Do not restart the engine if the red warning light is on. If the engine can be started, turn it off and wait 5-10 minutes. Without pressing the brake pedal, press the start button once or turn the key halfway to the 'ON' position without depressing the clutch. The vehicle will enter self-diagnosis mode upon powering on. After 5-10 seconds, observe whether the malfunction light turns off. If the light remains on, visit a service center as soon as possible. Technicians can use a portable diagnostic tool to read fault codes, identify the issue, and perform targeted repairs.

What Causes Water Leakage in the Engine Compartment?

Water leakage in the engine compartment can be caused by burst water pipes, loose connections, or damaged gaskets. Burst water pipes: In winter, if antifreeze is not added, cold water can freeze and crack, starting from the car's water pipes. A long time without cleaning or changing the water in the radiator can also lead to perforation under the pressure of the water pump's circulation. Solution: Replace the water pipes promptly or seek professional repair at a 4S shop. Loose connections: Overly loose connections can cause slippage, leading directly to misalignment; overly tight connections increase tension, making them prone to breakage under high load, resulting in water leakage in the engine compartment. Solution: It is recommended to immediately go to a repair shop for inspection and repair. Damaged gaskets: A malfunction in the water circulation system prevents water from circulating normally, causing the engine's internal water temperature to rise excessively and vaporize, forming high-pressure steam that breaks through the cylinder gasket and enters the engine interior, leading to water leakage in the engine compartment. Solution: Seek professional repair at a 4S shop promptly.

What Causes Engine Abnormal Noise?

Here are the causes and solutions for engine abnormal noise: 1. Aging engine mounts, the abnormal noise caused by rough engine operation due to aging engine mounts is triggered by excessively early fuel injection timing, and the fuel injection advance angle should be readjusted. 2. Engine misfire, the engine abnormal noise has a certain pattern, accompanied by unstable engine speed and intermittent black smoke emissions. This uneven abnormal noise is caused by diesel leakage from the fuel injector. When this occurs, the fuel injector should be serviced. 3. Piston slap, the exhaust pipe produces continuous backfire sounds during exhaust, accompanied by black smoke and overheating of the exhaust pipe, making starting difficult. At low speeds, the backfire sound diminishes. This abnormal noise is caused by excessively delayed fuel injection timing, and the exhaust pipe position should be promptly adjusted.
