What are the symptoms of a blown cylinder head gasket?
1 Answers
The symptoms of a blown cylinder head gasket are as follows: High engine load: The high temperature and pressure inside the cylinder cause the cylinder head gasket to be impacted and burned. Poor quality of the cylinder head gasket: As well as the sealing edge being burned out, the uneven wrapping of the asbestos plate and the retaining ring can cause cylinder leakage. Excessive cylinder pressure: The driver's poor driving habits, such as frequently slamming the accelerator and rapid acceleration, can lead to excessive cylinder pressure. Bubbles in the radiator: The radiator will backflow with bubbles, the water temperature will rise, and white smoke will be emitted from the exhaust. Emulsified and whitened engine oil: The engine oil may emulsify and turn white, or partially enter the cylinder, resulting in blue smoke from the exhaust. Insufficient engine power: When driving, the engine's power output is noticeably insufficient, acceleration performance is reduced, and in severe cases, knocking noises from the cylinder can be heard.
