Is it normal to see battery and oil light turn on before starting engine?
Yes. That's part of the ECU self-test.
How do you fix the cars carborator when its sucking air?
It is normal for a carburetor to "suck air" when you are starting the engine or while the engine is running. You should stop the engine before repairing the carburetor for safety reasons.
Is it normal for the electronic vacuum pump on a 1986 Pontiac 6000 2.8 mfi engine to 'run' just before starting the vehicle?
Yes it is priming the system
Is blackish spots before starting periods normal?
yes
On a 95 explorer w4.0 engine cranks along time cranks at normal speed before starting i replaced the plugs wires and fuel filter on the frame the old spark plugs were white but gapped ok any sugestion?
On my 1995, if my engine doesn't start right away, I turn the key off and try again in about 10 seconds. I was told that sometimes it misses a "pick up point" but it has always started on the second try, and it only happens occasionally, so I've never worried about it. The owner's manual states not to let the starter crank for more than 15 seconds at a time with a cold engine, or 5 seconds with a warm engine. ( I'm not a mechanic but have you checked your fuel pressure ? It should be 35 to 45 PSI with the key in the on/run position but engine not started)
Can a battery that fails the storage capacity test keep an engine from starting - even when the engine still cranks?
No. If you have enough power for the engine to crank then it has enough power to run the other systems. ALSO..i've started a car with a good battery and replaced it with "unknown battery" and it has stalled the motor. Starter and everything was good. Technically, even if the battery is dead and all other systems are normal this shouldn't happen. Go figure.
Is it normal to have cramps before starting your very first period?
Yep.
If you have power to your coil but no spark wile cranking could it be due to a poorly charged battery?
If there is enough power to crank the engine at a decent speed then you should see spark. Please test the coil or crank sensor if the engine cranks over at a normal rate.
Why does a car start hard; it just cranks normal when the key is turned. It takes more time to start than it used to.?
Fuel may be draining back into the tank. So the engine will turn over but not start until the fuel reachs the engine. If it is damp out, the wires may be bad. The spark will arc before it gets to the plugs, preventing combustion. It takes fuel, spark and combustion to make an engine run.
What procedure should be carried out for a new diesel engine or an engine that has been out service before starting using compress air?
please follow the below procedure. # check engine lube oil level. # check engine coolant level and related to the cooling system # lubricate the engine main bearing using some external pump, you can connect the pump to the lube oil gallery or if there is a pump on the engine then prime the lube oil system with it. # make sure the lube oil pressure indicator works while priming. # rotate the engine manually using the turning tool. # make 100% sure the fuel system works properly before cranking the engine. check the fuel pump rack moves freely from the levers on the fuel pump if the pump is Bosch type. well here the main concern is fuel system should work or must have the possibility for the fuel cut off. # be prepared to cut off air supply ( Air intake) to the engine in case you can not control the engine speed. may be you can put a flange on the turbocharger or intake manifold in case the engine goes out of control. # Bleed air from the fuel system. # crank the engine for starting. # you may not get the engine run at the first or two cranks. # may be you can lubricate the intake for better compression if the engine does not run. # start the engine at idle. # check for the lube oil pressure if the engine starts and things look normal. # immediately shut down the engine if no oil pressure, find the cause before restarting starting.
How does a Bollinger engine work?
The engine is a 2 stroke 'semi' diesel. Inlet and exhaust are as per 'normal' two stroke diesel but the injected fuel is not ignited by compression alone as in a normal diesel. Instead a 'hot bulb' on the cylinder head is heated with a blow-lamp before starting and heat from this, transferred to a tube in the combustion chamber which ignites the fuel to start the engine. Once running the engine itself maintains the temperature. Often called a Hot Bulb Engine.
After changing the basic things your car still has problems starting hot or cold cranks but no turn over sometimes cranks really fast?
Timing belt?? If there is a section of the timing belt with no teeth on it, it might be turning till it get to that point, slipping causing it to turn over fast, grabbing enough to turn over normal, but would not be able to start because it is now out of time.
