What else can I help you with?
How does engine coolant get into the combustion chamber?
A bad head gasket , a warped head usually from overheating , would allow engine coolant into an engine cylinder
What is the material of engine heads?
Engine heads are constructed of iron or aluminum.
How does coolant enter the chamber from a blown head gasket?
The head of an engine is cooled from passages in the block. When you blow a head gasket the coolant gets by the passages and into the combustion chamber. Sometimes the coolant doesn't go into the chamber but goes into the oil pan causing the engine oil to turn a milky brown color (looks like a chocolate milkshake).
What is Hyper lock on an engine?
If you mean "hydro lock", that is when coolant enters the combustion chamber and prevents the engine from turning (water doesn't compress)
Just had a gasket replaced in my engine and all of a sudden white smoke is coming from my engine and I am loosing engine coolant no burning smell though what could it be?
Sounds like head gasket is leaking allowing coolant into combustion chamber
Can fuel stabilizer cause smoke from tailpipe its white didnt notice it before?
No. White smoke is a symptom of coolant entering the combustion chamber. Stop driving the car and have it looked at by a professional. Serious engine damage will occur if it is indeed coolant in the combustion chamber and you continue to run the engine.
You have white smoke coming out of your exhaust But you have perfect compression And only smoke's after idle and it puffs once and stops while driving And the car runs strong.?
It can be nothing more than condensation when you first start the engine. But it may be more serious. White smoke from the exhaust can be a sign that coolant is entering the combustion chamber. Normally this would indicate a blown head gasket, but on some vehicles where the coolant flows through the intake manifold, it can indicate a blown intake gasket. Bottom line is, that if, coolant is entering the combustion chamber, you must find out from where. Are you loosing coolant, even a small amount?

What does the thermostat on a car do?
The thermostat in a car regulates the coolant temperature inside the engine. When the engine is cold, the thermostat is closed, allowing the heat from the combustion chamber to heat the fluid (coolant) in the coolant galleys in the engine block. Once the engine reaches an optimal temperature, the thermostat opens, allowing coolant to flow through the radiator. The thermostat then controls the flow of coolant to hold the engine at its optimum operating temperature, irrespective of engine load and operating condtions.
What happens if a car head gasket is leaking coolant?
Coolant will enter the combustion chamber and get into the oil pan. This will cause severe wear of internal engine components very quickly.
Keep topping up coolant on Renault there is no leak?
If coolant isn't leaking externally then it has to be leaking internally. A leaking head gasket or cracked head may be the problem. If this is the case, as it gets worse more coolant will enter the combustion chamber or engine oil. Either way you will be able to determine as it gets worse. There will be white smoke from the exhaust. May be intermittent. This is if coolant is leaking into combustion chamber. If leaking into oil, you will notice that the engine oil will have a brown/milky look to it as you check the oil level on the engine oil dipstick.
How do you fix a flooding engine coolant for a 1988 2 wd 4.3 liter S15 GMC Jimmy?
i dont understand your question, coolant wont flood your engine unless your head is cracked or warped,?????? and if it does flood, you will just hydraulic the combustion chamber, =not good:(
What could cause white smoke to come out of the exhaust of a 1989 240sx?
White smoke from the exhaust is a sign of coolant entering the combustion chamber. Usually a blown head gasket or cracked head. STOP driving the car immediately. Severe engine damage will occur if you continue to run this engine. Sounds like steam......you may be getting coolant into the combustion chamber.
