Can You Wash an Engine with Water?

[Edwin]

Absolutely not when it's hot, as thermal contraction and expansion can cause the engine block to crack. It is possible after the engine has cooled down, but it is not recommended to directly wash the engine with a water gun. Below are the engine displacement and its functions: Engine Displacement: Engine displacement is the total volume of all the cylinders in an engine, usually measured in liters (L). The cylinder volume refers to the gas volume swept by the piston from the top dead center to the bottom dead center, also known as single-cylinder displacement, which depends on the cylinder bore and piston stroke. Engine displacement is a crucial parameter, more representative of the engine size than the cylinder bore and number of cylinders. Many engine performance indicators are closely related to displacement. Generally, the larger the displacement, the greater the engine's output power. Function of the Engine: The function of the engine is to provide power for the vehicle, acting as the heart of the car, determining its power, fuel efficiency, stability, and environmental performance.
