What to Do When a Vehicle Won't Start?
1 Answers
If your vehicle won't start, here are some solutions: 1. First, check the spark plugs: If there's excessive carbon buildup, replace them with new ones. 2. Dead battery: The symptom is the starter motor turning but not fast enough (lacking power). If this happens, call the service station for assistance, jump-start the vehicle, or temporarily start it, then be sure to recharge the battery at the service station. 3. Fuel flow obstruction: The symptom is no fuel pressure in the engine's fuel line. Move the vehicle to a warm environment or thoroughly clean the fuel system. 4. Poor ignition system performance: Remove the spark plugs, clean the oil stains between the electrodes, and reinstall them to start the engine. 5. Valve sticking: Take the vehicle to a service station for a no-disassembly cleaning. In severe cases, disassemble and clean the cylinder head.
