1 Answers
Vehicle self-ignition is mainly caused by: 1. Issues with the car's fuel system, leading to oil or fluid leakage; 2. Aging or improperly connected wires causing short circuits or sparks; 3. High temperatures igniting flammable materials; 4. Vehicle collisions or mechanical failures causing fires; 5. Excessive accumulation of engine sludge, combined with high summer temperatures and engine heat, leading to sludge self-ignition. Principles to prevent car self-ignition: 1. Avoid unauthorized modifications to the car; 2. Regularly inspect electrical and fuel systems; 3. Do not place lighters, air fresheners, mosquito repellents, or other flammable and explosive items on the dashboard; 4. Equip a fire extinguisher; 5. Clean engine sludge before the summer season.
