What will happen if the engine is started after water ingress?

[SanAthena]

Starting the engine after water ingress can cause the piston to seize, and in severe cases, the connecting rod may bend. Below is a related introduction: Engine: An engine (Engine) is a machine capable of converting other forms of energy into mechanical energy, including internal combustion engines (reciprocating piston engines), external combustion engines (Stirling engines, steam engines, etc.), jet engines, electric motors, etc. Internal combustion engines typically convert chemical energy into mechanical energy. Connecting Rod: It connects the piston to the crankshaft, transmitting the forces acting on the piston to the crankshaft and converting the reciprocating motion of the piston into the rotational motion of the crankshaft.
