After the cylinder head gasket is burnt, the following symptoms will appear: 1. High temperature: The main symptoms are weak acceleration, popping sounds during acceleration, a small amount of water discharged from the exhaust pipe, and white smoke. 2. Gas leakage: Gas enters the oil pan, causing the breather to leak gas, resulting in poor lubrication of engine components such as the camshaft and rocker arms, and a decrease in engine power. Gas enters the water circuit, causing the radiator to leak gas, leading to decreased engine power, poor cooling, and cylinder deformation. 3. Oil leakage: Lubricating oil will leak from the cylinder head gasket, causing excessive oil consumption in the oil pan and resulting in engine crankshaft burning. 4. Water leakage: Water leaks into the oil pan, causing excessive water consumption, oil emulsification, and leading to crankshaft burning and dry cylinder deformation in the engine.

How to Test a Single-Wire Oil Pressure Sensor?

When the engine is running, the oil pump operates simultaneously, and the oil in the oil passage is under high pressure. The contact point inside the oil pressure sensor is pushed open by the oil, causing the oil pressure warning light on the dashboard to turn off. To test it, turn the ignition key to the ON position, disconnect the wire from the oil pressure sensor.
