Can the car start if it hasn't been flooded?

If the water level is not deep, the engine can start. If the engine is flooded, it won't start. Here is relevant information about ignition: Traditional ignition: The working process of a mechanical ignition system involves the crankshaft driving the distributor shaft to rotate. The cam on the distributor shaft rotates, causing the primary contacts of the ignition coil to connect and disconnect, thereby generating high voltage. This high-voltage ignition current is then distributed to the spark plugs of each cylinder in the required sequence via the rotor on the distributor shaft. The spark plugs emit sparks to ignite the gas in the combustion chamber. Electronic ignition: The electronic ignition system is completely different from the mechanical ignition system. It includes an electronic control device for ignition, which contains ignition control maps (MAP) for various engine operating conditions. A series of sensors, such as the engine speed sensor, intake manifold vacuum sensor (engine load sensor), throttle position sensor, and crankshaft position sensor, are used to determine the engine's operating state.

What is the maximum temperature that can be reached inside a car?

Tests have shown that when a car is parked outdoors in 40℃ high temperature and exposed to the sun for a long time, the temperature inside the car can exceed 70 degrees, reaching up to 90 degrees at maximum. Below are some precautions for car warm-up: Avoid prolonged warm-up: Most car owners believe that the longer the warm-up time, the better. In fact, excessive warm-up time not only consumes a large amount of gasoline but also damages the engine. The correct warm-up method should be to start driving slowly within 30 seconds to 1 minute after starting the car, and accelerate only after the temperature returns to normal. Tire pressure should rather be high than low: Because the external temperature is low, if the tire pressure is too low, the tires will age faster. Besides affecting driving safety and braking effectiveness, it will also accelerate the wear of the tire shoulders and increase the vehicle's fuel consumption. Excessive tire pressure will reduce the contact area between the tire and the ground, increase tread wear, and reduce braking effectiveness. Use warm water to wipe frozen windows: It is common for car windows to freeze in winter, especially after rain or snow. At this time, do not pour hot water directly onto the windows, as it can easily cause the window glass to crack and also make the car paint lose its luster due to sudden temperature changes.
