What are the symptoms of engine cylinder sticking?

[JesseFitz]

Cylinder sticking phenomenon refers to the block-like adhesion between the piston and the cylinder surface. Simply put, it is cylinder scoring. The main causes of cylinder scoring, besides insufficient engine lubrication oil, are poor engine cooling leading to overheating, which causes the lubricating oil to lose its lubrication function. Below is an introduction to the engine assembly: 1. Introduction: The engine assembly, also known as the engine, is a machine capable of converting one form of energy into another more useful form of energy. 2. Principle: It usually converts chemical energy into mechanical energy (the conversion of electrical energy into mechanical energy is referred to as an electric motor). Sometimes, it is applicable to both power generation devices and the entire machine including the power device, such as gasoline engines and aircraft engines. 3. Development: Looking back at the history of engine creation and development, it has gone through two stages: external combustion engines and internal combustion engines.

Last time my car had a problem, it was engine seizure. The sound was terrifying! While driving, you could hear a very obvious metallic grinding noise, extremely harsh, like something was scraping against metal. Pressing the accelerator, you could clearly feel the lack of power, the car felt sluggish, and acceleration was particularly slow. At that time, the dashboard's temperature gauge shot straight to the top, with a red warning light flashing, which scared me into pulling over immediately. After stopping, the engine hood was frighteningly hot, and there was a nasty burnt smell coming out. In severe cases, you could even feel the engine shaking on its own, the tachometer needle was unstable, fluctuating up and down, and finally, it just stalled and wouldn't start again. If you encounter this situation, don't force it to drive. Stop immediately, call a tow truck, and get it repaired—that's the right thing to do.

One of the most serious problems we often encounter in car repairs is engine seizure. When driving, you'll notice a sudden significant drop in power, and the engine feels unusually heavy. The throttle response becomes very poor, and it feels extremely laborious. At this point, you should pay attention to the sounds—there's likely a continuous metallic tapping or sharp grinding noise coming from the engine bay. The most obvious sign is the temperature gauge; it will definitely show abnormally high readings, and the temperature warning light on the dashboard will illuminate. Many drivers also notice a burning smell at this stage. If you're unlucky enough to keep driving, the engine may soon completely fail, stop running, or even be permanently damaged. Once the temperature gauge hits the red zone or the warning light comes on, don't hesitate—immediately turn off the engine and stop the car.

Engine seizure is no trivial matter. The most immediate symptom I notice is a sudden and abnormal loss of power - the accelerator feels mushy, and it's difficult to rev up the engine. The most critical diagnostic clue comes from the sound: the engine produces very distinct, frightening metallic knocking or grinding noises, like a clattering sound. This condition is invariably accompanied by overheating, indicated by the temperature warning light on the dashboard. Sometimes, you might even see faint blue smoke or detect a pungent burning smell. If ignored and driven further, the engine temperature keeps rising until it finally locks up and stalls, leaving the vehicle stranded with no possibility of restarting. Continuing to drive in this state isn't just damaging to the vehicle - it's downright dangerous.
