After a car stalls in water, the engine does not necessarily have problems. The function of the engine is to convert the heat energy of gasoline or diesel into mechanical energy by burning the expanding gas in a sealed cylinder to push the piston to do work. The engine consists of: 1. Valve train; 2. Crank connecting rod mechanism; 3. Ignition system; 4. Cooling system; 5. Lubrication system; 6. Starting system; 7. Supply system. The maintenance methods for the engine are: 1. Use qualified engine oil; 2. Use qualified coolant and antifreeze; 3. Regularly clean the scale in the radiator; 4. Regularly clean the carbon deposits in the engine; 5. Regularly replace the three filters of the car; 6. Maintain a reasonable speed.

What is the actual fuel consumption of Peugeot 207?

Peugeot 207 consumes 6 liters per 100 kilometers. The following are the reasons for increased fuel consumption: Long-term idling: Leaving the car running without turning off the engine for extended periods consumes a lot of fuel, especially when idling with the air conditioning on during summer while waiting. Engine performance decline: If the car's engine performance significantly deteriorates, it will be accompanied by increased fuel consumption. This is likely caused by issues such as incomplete fuel combustion and increased engine carbon deposits due to prolonged failure to replace engine oil, oil filters, air filters, and fuel filters. Excessive carbon deposits will increase fuel consumption.
