It would if the battery voltage was lowered enough to cause it not to fire.
Have the alternator tested. I would suspect one or more of the diodes in the alternator are bad.
i have a 1992 ford escort lx 1.9l. will a 1995 ford escort engine fit. and what would have to replace.
If all the accessory belts in front of the engine are in place and adjusted properly it is probably alternator failure.
Your alternator could be bad.
No. An engine out of a 93 would be a 1.9 L 2nd generation and an engine out of a 99 would be a 2.0L 3rd generation.
either alternator or wrong size battery
Engine failure.Engine failure.
Ignition is required for an engine to work. Failure of ignition would prevent the engine working.
Alternator is bad or your regulator if is not built into your alternator
Your question is sort of backwards, perhaps you meant what causes engine failure? Engine failure causes...the engine to fail. If someone told me their engine failed I would take it to mean that it stopped running, or wouldn't start.
your Alternator
No. The short summary is that there usually is a fuse or circuit breaker in the line coming out of the alternator that protects the alternator from a sudden surge in power from some outside source and which also protects the engine's electrical parts from a sudden surge that might somehow come from the alternator (very doubtful this would happen). But that fuse doesn't keep the alternator charging in the strict sense of the phrase. What stops an alternator from charging is internal parts failure such as the burn out of a rectifier, bearing failure or the belt which drives the alternator failing or coming loose and slipping excessively. Short of failures such as these an alternator will keep on charging as long as the belt is turning its pulley and causing the rotor inside the alternator to turn.
