Daewoo Nexia 1.5 Can a broken cambelt wreck engine?
8 valve engine is freewheeling. very little chance of engine damage. 16 valve is an interference engine. Most likely damage will have occured.
What is the engine ticking noise?
As you give very little information as to make, model, engine size or year, and exactly when it is ticking, this is just an educated guess. Normally this is valve noise caused by valve clearance issues. If it has solid lifters then they need adjusting. If it has hydraulic lifters, they may be clogged and sticking. If it has hydraulic lifters try adding a can of Seafoam engine tune to a fresh oil filter change. It can be purchased at many auto parts stores. Drive the car for 500 miles and change the oil and filter again. You may have to do this more than once to remove the deposits in the lifters. If this does not work, then the valve stems or lifters are worn, and need adjustment or possible replacement.
Why is a 1996 Mazda 626 making a loud ticking noise from right front of the engine It increases in noise as the revs go up but if there is no throttle it's very faint?
it will be your valve lifters common problem for the Mazda 626 engine when they start to get up in the milage
What would make a tapping noise when vehicle is turned on then noise quits after ten minutes?
1. One or more lifters in the valve train system may be stuck in the compressed position due to sludge or other buildup from less than optimal oil change periods. As the engine warms up the combination of heat and warm oil softens the buildup enabling the lifter to expand and remove any slack in the valve train.2. One or more lifters and the camshaft may be worn past the expansion limit of the lifters thus creating slack in the valve train. As the engine warms up the parts in the valve train, primarily the lifter and push rod expand and remove the slack. This type will eventually wear past the limits of expansion and become continuous tapping. Again this may be cause by less than optimal oil change periods. If the onset of tapping was shortly after an oil change where the engine had a "cleaning treatment" performed, the cam and lifters were probably severely damaged during the treatment. Engines with such damage may continue with little or no additional damage with proper maintenance however there is no guarantee. 3. If the tapping is very light, as opposed to the louder, heaver sound of lifters, it may be the fuel injectors. These always make some noise but as the engine reaches operating temperature the noise usually decreases to the point it is obscured buy the other noises from the engine.
Will the engine be damaged if the timing belt breaks on a 1996 Dodge Stratus ES 2.5L?
Yes and no, if the car jumps timing you could damage the head by bending a valve, but if you jump timing bad enough, the valve could scar the top of the cylinder head and that's a very very expensive fix, A.K.A. new engine, but to answer your question short and sweet, oh yeah, you will have exstensive engine damage. Hope I helped
Why is changing my PCV valve important?
Well a pcv valve recirculates unburned gases back into the engine to be reburned. A plugged pcv can cause rough engine idle and several other problems such as engine damage so its very important that its working well because if it is not it needs to be fixed.
Are the lifters on your 1991 Mazda b2200 adjustable?
The older Mazda B2000 trucks has adjustable valve lash adjusters; they need to be readjusted periodically about once a year depending up on how much you drive. The Mazda Truck I have is 1990 B2200 4 cylinder 2.2 liter, has carburetor. The truck has hydraulic Lifters can not be adjusted manually. But they adjust automatically. Each lifter has small hole on the side, fills up with oil and adjusts the valve lash. The bottom of each lifter has small steel valve they look like steel ball sitting on gasket. The gaskets look like a rounded flat washer. Some times they leak oil out and do not stay full of oil; when this condition happens the lifters collapse and leaves big valve lash (clearance between the valves and lifters). The engine becomes very noisy you hear loud taping sound at higher RPM. If you have not started your Truck for a while, when you start the engine for first few minutes you hear taping valves that is normal. When the engine reaches operating temperature you should hear only ticking sound not loud tapping. If the small holes are clogged up due to oil slugs and dirt in the engine, flush The engine with Motor Flush available from auto parts stores. Then change filter and oil with right viscosity to your climate per owners manual. If you use heavy oil additive to reduce consumption (oil burn) on older engines you need to consider that this holes in valve lifters are very small. Thay are smaller than the tip of ball pen. These lifters are also very small in size. Al Fred
Is the valve adjustable on Nissan navara 1990 petrol engine?
Which valve? Engines have many! You need to be very specific about this!
The timing belt broke on my 2002 dodge stratus se how do you check to see if it caused damage when it broke?
TAKE A WRENCH AND TURN THE ENGINE VERY SLOWLY. IF IT STOPS TURNING YOU BENT A VALVE.
Is the Chevy 250 L6 a dependable engine How difficult are repairs cost?
Very dependable, reliable. It's a simple, cam-in-block, pushrod OHV design, with hydraulic valve lifters that it shares with the GM V8 lines of the same years. It's very easily overhauled, repaired and tuned, and the parts are inexpensively and widely available. It's an excellent engine for any chassis in which it fits, including trucks.
