Add an ounce of engine oil in each cylinder on top of the piston and turn over a couple of times with the plugs out to lube and seal the rings.

What will happen to the cylinder head and engine block if wrong fuel is used?

If you mean you used gasoline in a diesel engine... not good.If you mean you used diesel in a gasoline engine, it probably just won't start.If you mean you used a higher octane in a low compression engine, don't worry, you just wasted some money.If you mean you used a LOW octane in a HIGH compression engine, it will just ping and rattle until you put the right fuel in it.POINT OF INFORMATION!!!ALMOST ALL OF THE CARS ON THE ROAD TODAY DON'T NEED HIGH OCTANE FUEL!!! IT'S A WASTE OF MONEY, AND IT'S A BAD IDEA. Always buy fuel from a distributor that sells A LOT of it, and only buy the stuff that sells the most.You're after "FRESH" fuel. Injectors last a lot longer if you only use fresh fuel. It will have less contaminants and tend to build fewer deposits on the injectors. Most distributors don't sell anywhere near as much premium fuel as they do "regular".IF YOU DON'T HAVE A HIGH COMPRESSION ENGINE YOU CAN'T TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE BURN PROPERTIES OF HIGH OCTANE FUEL! For more information see the answer to the Related Question shown below.


How do you repair an engine with a blown head gasket?

The head or heads will have to be remove and inspected for cracks or warpage. You then replace the gasket and reinstall the head. Drain the oil and change the filter. Replace the thermostat and pour in fresh coolant. Unless you ran it hot or drove it for a long period of time in this condition you may be ok. If you just kept driving it then you will have damage to the rings and bearings an the engine may need an overhaul. Really depends on how long the engine was driven with a blown gasket.


What type of gas should be used for a 94 camaro with a 34 engine?

Use regular if the engine doesn't ping. Always buy fuel at a place that pumps a lot. If the fuel at the station is always fresh you will have far less problems. Your engine doesn't need fuel with detergents or high octane unless the engine has been significantly modified to raise compression. Even then, it doesn't need expensive fuel, just clean fuel.

Why won't my 33cc engine start?

Check your basics first, ignition, compression and fuel. See if your spark plug is firing, could be worn or simply need cleaning. Check compression, should run on anything over 100lbs. Makesure fuel is being delivered to combustion chamber. Also ensure that your fuel is fresh and not contaminated with water or trash. Oftentimes, contaminated fuel will be apparent due to a flooding condition.


Why change the oil in a car?

Regularly changing a car's engine oil is necessary to ensure proper engine function as well as to ensure that a vehicle engine lasts for as long as possible. Oil changes remove old, dirty engine oil and replace it with clean, fresh engine oil. Oilbreaks down over time and loses it's lubrication properties. Acids build up in the oil which will cause damage to moving parts.
