What to Pay Attention to After an Engine Overhaul?
1 Answers
Here are the precautions to take after an engine overhaul: 1. Regardless of the gear, ensure the tachometer does not exceed 3000 RPM. 2. During cold starts, it's best to let the needle warm up to the middle of the scale line, and the water temperature should ideally reach above 40°C before driving. 3. Always adhere to the vehicle's load capacity regulations, preferably not exceeding 70% of the specified load. 4. Sudden braking can cause significant impact damage to the engine, braking system, and chassis. While driving, anticipate situations early and reduce speed and gear accordingly. If an emergency brake is unavoidable due to sudden circumstances, first depress the clutch pedal to minimize engine impact damage. Here are some related details: 1. Diesel and gasoline are the main fuels for engines. If they are not pure, they can wear down the precision-fitted engine components, increase the clearance, leading to oil leaks, dripping, reduced fuel supply pressure, enlarged gaps, and even severe failures like oil line blockages or bearing seizure. 2. If the air contains a large amount of dust, it will accelerate the wear of the cylinder liner, piston, and piston rings. If the cooling water is not pure, it can cause scale buildup in the cooling system, hindering engine heat dissipation, worsening lubrication conditions, and leading to severe engine wear. If the engine's exterior is not clean, it can lead to surface corrosion, shortening its service life.
