What are the reasons why GAC Trumpchi cars fail to start?
2 Answers
There are several reasons why a GAC Trumpchi car may fail to start, including excessive carbon deposits in the idle speed motor, intake tract, intake valves, and combustion chamber. Below is extended information about carbon deposits: 1. Introduction: Carbon deposits include two concepts: The first concept is engine carbon deposits: During engine operation, unsaturated olefins and gums in the fuel produce a coking-like substance under high temperatures. The second concept is carbon deposits in electrical discharge machining, which should be avoided as much as possible, especially in precision mold processing, as it can have fatal effects. 2. Causes of formation: Carbon deposits in the combustion chamber are caused by the gums in gasoline components and the tiny carbon particles produced after the incomplete combustion of hydrocarbons, which fail to be discharged with the exhaust gas and accumulate in the combustion chamber. These black particles should be emitted into the atmosphere with the exhaust gas or accumulate on the muffler pipe.
I also experienced a situation where my GAC Trumpchi wouldn't start, which was really frustrating. The reason was a dead battery caused by insufficient power due to cold weather. Sometimes it's an issue with the ignition system, where the spark plugs are too heavily carbon-fouled or worn out, preventing the current from reaching the engine and causing it not to start. Another possibility is a malfunctioning fuel pump, an empty fuel tank, or a blocked fuel line—without fuel, the car naturally won't start. The anti-theft system can also be a culprit; if the key is dead or the sensor fails, it can lock the ignition. I recommend first trying a jump start, and if that doesn't work, check the battery and fuses. Regular maintenance, like timely battery replacement or checking fuel levels before refueling, can prevent many issues. In short, don't rush to call a tow truck—checking simple problems yourself might save both money and time.
