What else can I help you with?
Is there engine compression on a 1991 Mercury Sable 305 engine with the timing chain broken?
You may have compression on any cylinder where the valves happen to be closed, but you will not have compression on all cylinders. 1991 Sable does not have a 305 engine.
Why would you lose compression in two cylinders of your 1997 Jeep Cherokee sport?
Did this happen just after an overheat incident? Are the two cylinders adjacent to each other? If so, consider the possibility that you may have a blown head gasket leaking between the two cylinders. To check, first get intake and exhaust valves closed on both cylinders. Then use a cylinder leakdown tester to put air into one cylinder. If it comes out the spark plug hole of the other you have a leak between the two cylinders. If this is the case, remove the cylinder head and examine the head gasket for any sign of damage. If this is a 4 liter inline 6 engine and if the two cylinders in question are #3 & #4 consider the possibility that you may have a cracked cylinder head. Proceed as above, but while the head is off, carefully look for cracks. If the head has a crack it must be replaced.
What would happen if you put the wrong brake fluid in your Chrysler voyager?
It would ruin the master cylinder, wheel cylinders, and calibers. Your vehicles uses DOT3. Look on the top of the master cylinder fill cap.
Why is the Check engine light flashing on 1999 mustang gt?
When any OBD2 engine light flashes, its telling you that a catastrophic failure of your cat could happen if the problem isn't fixed. Generally this is caused by a misfire in one or more cylinders. When the computer detects this condition, it shuts off the fuel to the affected cylinder/s
What will happen if you drive without a spark plug?
Assuming you can get the engine to start, which is unlikely... Since one of your cylinders is being fired, the gas will exit the exhaust pipe with a loud bang rather frequently; on a 4 cylinder engine it would be something like 1/4 of your rev count/second. You will also be missing about 1/4 of your power.
What happen if cylinder head have a leaking?
white smoke out tailpipe.............coolant in engine oil looks like a chocolate milkshake
What could be wrong if there is a lean in cylinders 1 and 3 in my 2000 3.8 Windstar?
It could be the intake manifold gasket, mine was leaking ans setting codes for cylinder 4, while running it will suddenly lose some power and the check engine light will blink and eventually goes steady. It could happen once a day a several times.
What damage can happen when you drive a car that has 2 bad cylinders?
Sounds like engine is pretty well shot already No power very bad fuel economy not a very smooth ride
What would happen if water gets inside diesel engine?
It will break a lot of expensive parts. If the water gets into the fuel, it will blow the tips off your fuel injectors...and new injectors are several hundred bucks apiece. This is why every diesel engine made in at least the last fifty years has a fuel/water separator which you MUST drain on a regular basis. If enough water gets into the cylinders the engine will hydrolock. Hydrolock happens when there's more water in a cylinder than there is cylinder volume at top dead center. The piston will hit the water and stop moving. The engine, not expecting there to be water in it, will keep on trying to force the piston upward. The least thing that will happen is you'll bend a connecting rod, which means an overhaul. The next worst thing is the head can break...in addition to bending all the rods in the engine. The next worst thing is the crankshaft can bend or break. The next worst thing is all of the above can happen at the same time. And the VERY worst thing that can happen is, besides your engine blowing up, diesel fuel can get loose, contact the hot engine, ignite and burn up whatever the engine is in.
What would happen if a cylinder broke in a car?
The cylinder would lose compression, causing the engine to lose power. I've personally never heard of a cylinder breaking, its usually parts near and around the cylinder that break, although if the block cracks, I guess that could be considered breaking the cylinder. The cylinder can also lose compression due to rust holes which can develop over time.
If the muffler is installed the wrong way can that blow a head gasket?
no it cannot. the only thing that would happen is your engine would not get new oxygen into it's cylinders, because the muffler wasn't breathing well enough, and your engine would just shut off.
What happens when gas cylinder is taken from sea level to high hill?
When a gas cylinder is taken from sea level to a high hill, the pressure inside the cylinder decreases due to the lower atmospheric pressure at higher altitudes. This can cause the gas to expand, potentially leading to the gas leaking out of the cylinder or affecting its performance. It is important to handle and transport gas cylinders carefully to avoid any safety risks.
