Can You Still Drive When the Engine Shows Insufficient Power?

[DiNadia]

You can continue driving when the engine shows insufficient power, but it is recommended to identify the cause of the issue as soon as possible. Below are the reasons that may lead to insufficient engine power: Excessive carbon buildup in the engine: Carbon deposits can directly affect the engine, reducing its performance and causing insufficient power. Therefore, regular cleaning of engine carbon deposits, using high-quality fuel, and minimizing carbon buildup are essential. Excessively high or low temperatures: High water temperature is usually caused by prolonged overloading, severe scaling in the cooling system, excessive fuel supply, or delayed fuel injection timing. Avoid prolonged overloading of the vehicle, clean the cooling system of scale, reduce fuel supply, and adjust fuel injection timing. Clogged air filter: A clogged air filter increases intake resistance and reduces the amount of air entering the cylinders, leading to incomplete diesel combustion and insufficient engine power.
