Does Using Air Conditioning Affect the Engine?
1 Answers
Here is an introduction to the impact of using air conditioning on the engine: 1. Insufficient car power: In fact, for such a car cold air conditioning, it may cause insufficient car power, which is something many people believe. However, this conclusion is not applicable to all cars, as they are divided into large-displacement and small-displacement engines. The smaller the displacement, the more applicable this statement is. But for cars with large displacement, the impact of air conditioning on power is minimal. 2. Reduced engine lifespan: Currently, turning on the air conditioning does not cause much harm, at most it consumes a bit more fuel. However, turning off the engine with the air conditioning still on can damage the engine. If the owner turns off the car without turning off the air conditioning, although the air conditioning stops working after the engine is turned off, the next time the car is started, the air conditioning will default to its last used state and work simultaneously with the engine. The load of the air conditioning will be added to the engine, and excessive load on the engine will cause a burden. Over time, this will inevitably reduce the engine's lifespan.
