What Causes a Diesel Vehicle with Fuel to Fail to Start?

Here are the reasons why a diesel vehicle with fuel fails to start: Engine fuel line blockage: Check if the engine fuel line is unobstructed. If you hear a hissing sound from the fuel injector, it indicates the fuel line is functioning properly. Cylinder compression: Inspect the cylinder compression. If the flywheel can rotate after releasing the decompression device, but the cylinder compression is problematic, the cylinder piston and piston rings need replacement. Lubricating oil: Replace the lubricating oil promptly. Overly viscous lubricating oil can hinder smooth engine startup. Fuel pump: Check for air in the fuel pump. If there is air inside the fuel pump, the diesel engine will fail to start.

What Causes Black Smoke During Cold Start?

The reason for black smoke during cold start is: incomplete combustion during engine operation, overly rich air-fuel mixture, meaning the excess air coefficient in the cylinder is too small. Some fuel decomposes into free carbon under high temperature and is expelled from the exhaust pipe, forming black smoke. Precautions for cold start are: 1. The idling warm-up time should not be too long, 30 seconds to 1 minute is sufficient; 2. Before cold start, keep the vehicle in the powered-on state for a few seconds to allow the control system to complete self-check and the fuel pump to establish normal working pressure; 3. Avoid high-speed driving. Drive normally only after the transmission system, steering system, brake system, and differential suspension reach their normal operating temperatures.
