What else can I help you with?
Can a bad intake gasket result in coolant in the combustion chamber?
No. The intake only deals with air and fuel
How important is it to fix bad intake gasket on a 96 Saturn SC2?
If you have a leaky intake manifold gasket, one or more cylinders may run extra lean. A lean burn condition can result in excess combustion heat and eventually burn valves or burn through a piston. Most mechanics will strongly recommend that you repair a leaking intake manifold gasket.
Will a piston burn a hole in as a result of a binding exhaust valve?
A hole in piston is caused by extreme heat! most likely cause is coolant being introduced into the cylinder during combustion from a leaking head gasket,faulty intake manifold gasket or a defective cylinder head!
A vacuum leak is a result of what?
Old/worn intake manifold gasket and/or damaged/broken/mis-routed hoses attaching to intake manifold.
Can you drive with bad upper intake manifold gasket?
a bad head gasket will result with compression and oil/coolant mixxing in the blocka badupper or lower intake gasket will result with coolant in crankcase or exaust manifold which causes white smoke comming out of the tail pipe...if your gonna change the upper or lower intake gaskets change them both at the same time... it saves you money in the long run
How do you know if the car is damaged from over heating?
There are quite a few ways to evaluate damage as a result of an overheating issue. 1. Cylinder Compression tests will most likely reveal a problem, low compression = a leak in either the head gasket, valve seals, or piston rings. 2. White smoke from the exhaust is a sign that coolant is entering into the combustion chambers and burning which is a result of a blown head gasket or intake manifold gasket depending on the application. 3. If coolant blows out the top of an open radiator inlet when the throttle is pressed in most cases that is a sign that the engine is sucking air into the cooling system which could be through the head gasket or intake gasket depending on the application.
What does a egr valve do?
The EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) directs exhaust gasses into the engine's combustion chamber via the intake manifold. The exhaust gasses are inert (do not support combustion) and displace oxygen that would normally be drawn into the engine during the intake stroke. Think of the engine as a vacuum pump and can only draw in a fixed amount of oxygen to be mixed with the fuel for ignition. The reason that exhaust gasses are drawn into the combustion chamber is to cool the exhaust. With less Oxygen in the fuel mixture the flame burns cooler and cooler exhaust temperatures result in lower NOX (oxides of nitrogen) emissions.
What cause unburnt fuel to the combustion chamber?
Unburnt fuel in the combustion chamber can result from several factors, including improper air-fuel mixture, inadequate ignition timing, or inefficient combustion due to low temperatures. Additionally, issues such as clogged fuel injectors, malfunctioning spark plugs, or poor engine compression can prevent complete combustion. These factors can lead to fuel pooling or incomplete burning, resulting in unburnt fuel being expelled from the combustion chamber.
Will flooding a carburetor result in raw fuel coming from the exhaust pipe?
a flooded carburetor will spill fuel into the combustion chamber causing an improper fuel to air mixture. too much fuel in the combustion chamber will not completely burn. the unburned fuel will be pushed out of the exhaust.
Why does my diesel engine have white smoke?
White smoke (steam) usually is the result of coolant getting into the combustion chamber probably through a bad head gasket or a cracked head.
What is the source of thermal energy in an internal combustion chamber?
The output of every internal combustion engine is usually thought of as kinetic energy, but as a byproduct, thermal energy also is expelled as a result of the combustion of hydrocarbons. The primary fuel source. Additionally, much kinetic energy is also lost as a result of friction thereby also creating a thermal energy. So although the sources of both seem different, there would be no friction without first there being kinetic energy as a result of the combustion of hydrocarbon and oxygen.
When hydrogen molecules and oxygen molecules are burned in a closed chamber what are the result?
When hydrogen and oxygen molecules are burned in a closed chamber, they react to form water molecules (H2O) as a result of combustion. This reaction releases energy in the form of heat and light.
