Engine blow-by is often caused by excessive wear or damage to the piston rings, cylinders, or valve guides. This can be due to high mileage, poor maintenance, operating the engine under high load conditions for extended periods of time, or not changing the oil regularly. Damage can also be caused by pre-ignition or detonation, which is when the air/fuel mixture in the cylinders ignites too early or too violently. This puts extreme pressure on the piston rings and can cause rapid wear or even breakage. Furthermore, using the wrong type of oil can also contribute to excessive engine blow-by.
1. Purchase an OBD2 (On-Board Diagnostics, version 2) scanner. These scanners can read from any car made after 1996.
2. Locate your car's OBD2 port. Usually, the OBD2 port can be found under the dashboard on the driver's side, but it may be located in different places depending on the car’s model.
3. Plug your OBD2 scan tool into the port. Once it’s connected, you can turn on the scanner and your vehicle. Some scanners might require you to start your vehicle’s engine.
4. Select 'read' or 'scan' on your OBD2 scanner, depending on the model. The scanner will then start scanning your vehicle's systems for any trouble codes.
5. The scanner will show any errors/faults on its screen. Document these codes. They will either display the problem outright, or they will provide a code that correlates with a specific issue.
6. Look up the codes online or in the scanner’s manual to understand what each one means.
7. Use the information you’ve gathered to fix the specific issues your car has. If the problem is beyond your repair knowledge, take the car to a professional mechanic and provide them with the codes.
8. Once repairs are done, you can use the scanner again to reset the system and turn off the 'check engine' light.
To find an engine serial number, first review your vehicle's owner's manual, which typically includes diagrams and specifics on where to locate the number. Most commonly, the engine serial number is stamped directly onto the engine block. This is usually found on a flat area that's easily visible after opening the hood. Positions vary by manufacturer but often are near the engine's front side or on the cylinder block. For modern vehicles, this information might also be accessible through the onboard diagnostic system. If you're having trouble, online forums, manufacturer websites, and even local dealerships can provide guidance specific to your vehicle make and model. Remember, the engine serial number is crucial for parts, service, and repair, making it accurate identification important for vehicle maintenance.
