When a car engine catches fire, you should stop the vehicle promptly and use the onboard fire extinguisher to spray into the gaps of the grille, then open the hood to extinguish the fire with the extinguisher. Below are detailed introductions about car engines: 1. Overview: The car engine is the device that provides power to the vehicle, determining its power, fuel efficiency, stability, and environmental friendliness. Depending on the power source, car engines can be categorized into diesel engines, gasoline engines, electric vehicle motors, and hybrids, among others. 2. Others: Common gasoline and diesel engines belong to reciprocating piston internal combustion engines, which can convert the chemical energy of fuel into the mechanical energy of piston movement and output power. Gasoline engines have high rotational speeds, are lightweight, produce less noise, are easy to start, and have low manufacturing costs. Diesel engines have a high compression ratio, excellent thermal efficiency, and better economic and emission performance than gasoline engines.
