What are the reasons for a diesel generator failing to start?

Reasons for a diesel generator failing to start: 1. Untimely lubrication of friction surfaces; 2. Damage to the lubricating oil film on the cylinder wall; 3. Corrosion by acidic substances. The normal temperature of the transmission part is often maintained by the heat generated from the friction between parts and oil stirring. If the temperature rises too slowly, gears and bearings will not be sufficiently lubricated, leading to increased wear. This not only raises fuel consumption but also reduces engine power. A diesel generator is a small-scale power generation device that uses diesel as fuel and a diesel engine as the prime mover to drive the generator. The complete unit generally consists of components such as the diesel engine, generator, control box, fuel tank, starting and control battery, protection devices, and emergency cabinet.
