What are the symptoms of a bad fuel injector on a Mercury Villager ls?
If you have a bad injector, chances are that you will also have a dead cylinder. Auto zone can check that for free if your engine light is on!Good luck!
How do you know when the fuel injector is bad on a 99 expedition 5.4 engine?
Locate which cylinder is dead, remove the spark plug, if the spark plug is bone dry the injector is probably not working.
My 1991 geo storm SOHC has a dead cylinder on number one compression is 150 timing is correct spark is good got a suggestion?
mine did the same it turned out to be the injector
What is swept volume?
It is the volume of air in Diesel engine or the mixture of air and gasoline in petrol engine induced by the cylinder while moving down from the top dead center to the bottom dead center in intake stroke. Calculation: bore of the cylinder squared * pi * crank radius / 4 [Cm 3]
Why does diesel pass to the engine in a f350 Chevy truck?
F350 is a Ford. Why is fuel getting into the crankcase? Dead cylinder and it is running past the rings. If that's not your question, rephrase it and ask again.
98 Chevy blazer 4.3l changed iac valve egr valve fuel filter PCV valve plugs and wires and still you have rough idol especially when cold?
You may have a bad fuel injector. Try to single out which cylinder is dead, then remove that spark plug, if the plug is clean and dry you have a faulty fuel injector.
What could be the reasons for one cylinder not working if the spark plugs and wiring have been changed on a 1989 Chevy Celebrity 2.8 liter engine?
Run a compression test before you spend too much time checking out other potential problems. If the compression tests good, try swapping the fuel injector with a good cylinder and see if the dead cylinder moves.
What to do when cylinder 3 misfires on a 2010 Chevy 1500 Express Cargo Van How do you fix it Replaced a coil pack new plugs and wires The check engine light is still on Need help thanks?
Could be a dead fuel injector.
What cylinder would be Top dead center for 1989 jeep 4.2?
Each cylinder has a top dead center position.
Why is a diesel engine running rough when its cold?
Diesel engines, unlike gas engines do not have any spark plugs. The reason that they do not need a spark plug is because in diesel engines, the air is compressed much, much more than in a gas engine. The more that you compress the air, the more that the air is heated. Diesel engines have so much compression that the air inside of your cylinder becomes super heated and there is no need for a spark plug. The air is so hot that when the diesel fuel is injected into the cylinder, the diesel fuel ignites and the piston is pushed down via the "explosion" that takes place when the piston reaches tdc(top dead center). Because of this, diesel engines need to warm up. This is why diesel engines have glow plugs. The glow plugs warm the block and help the engine to heat up faster.
What does it mean when a car runs on three cyilinders?
It can mean one of two things; it is either has a three-cylinder engine, or perhaps a four cylinder engine where one isn't working. A "cylinder" is the part of an internal combustion engine (gas engine) where the power is generated. If you are asking WHY one of the cylinders wouldn't work, several causes are; fouled spark plug, clogged or dead fuel injector, bad or loose spark plug wire, bad ignition coil for that cylinder.
What makes a diesel fire?
Diesel fuel ignites at approximately 480 F. The compression of the air as the piston rises results in heating of the air (feel how a bicycle tire pump gets warm when you are pumping). A little bit after top dead center (TDC) the injector sprays the fuel into the chamber and the fuel ignites from the heat. When a diesel engine is cold, it is usually necessary to temporarily burn an electric heating element (glow plug) in the combustion chamber in order to get the engine started.
