What Causes an Engine to Stall Naturally?
2 Answers
It may be caused by a short circuit in the low-voltage circuit. Below are some related introductions about stalling: 1. Reasons for stalling: The use of inferior fuel (many gas stations sell impure fuel for huge profits) leads to engine carbon deposits and stalling, or faults in the spark plugs or ignition coils cause one or more cylinders to misfire, resulting in stalling. 2. Solutions: Stalling at idle: When the vehicle is idling, the speed is not very high, and after stalling, simply restart the engine. For automatic transmission vehicles, the gear must first be shifted into park or neutral before the engine can be restarted.
I've been driving for over 30 years, and the most common cause of engine stalling is fuel supply issues. Just last month on the highway, my car suddenly died, nearly causing an accident. Upon inspection, it turned out to be an aging fuel pump causing insufficient fuel delivery, or possibly clogged fuel lines or a dirty fuel filter failing to screen impurities – any of these can cut off fuel to the engine. Additionally, a clogged air filter disrupting the air-fuel mixture ratio can also easily cause stalling, especially noticeable during cold starts. I must remind everyone to regularly check fluid quality and replace these wear-prone components. Proper routine maintenance, like cleaning the fuel system every 20,000 kilometers, can prevent such issues. Otherwise, breaking down mid-journey can be extremely dangerous.
