Will Water in Gasoline Affect the Engine?

[MacBrantley]

The engine will stall and stop running. When the fuel pump encounters water, the water will eventually be sprayed into the intake manifold through the fuel injector in a mist form and then enter the cylinder. The amount of water is very small, just a few grams. At this point, since water is being sprayed in, the engine will naturally stall and stop running. Once the engine stops, the fuel pump will also cease operation. Below is additional information about water entering the engine: Minor Water Intake: If a small amount of water enters the engine but does not affect normal driving, though the engine may produce louder noises, it could indicate that there is a small amount of water in the oil or gasoline. In this case, the oil needs to be changed, and the engine-related components should be cleaned. Significant Water Intake: If the engine has taken in a considerable amount of water (not just a mixture with water) but the car has not been started, meaning the engine has not been damaged, the water must be completely drained, the interior cleaned thoroughly, reassembled, and the oil replaced. However, the electrical system may remain unsafe.
