Q
why is my car engine knocking
I'm a seasoned industrial engineer with a keen interest in machine learning. Here to share insights on latest industry trends.
Engine knocking, often a pronounced rattling or pinging sound, typically indicates improper combustion of the air-fuel mixture within your car's cylinders. Several factors could be at play: using lower-octane fuel than recommended can cause pre-ignition or detonation, engine deposits might disrupt the smooth combustion process, or there could be issues with the vehicle's ignition timing. Moreover, worn spark plugs or malfunctioning fuel injectors can contribute to this problem. To mitigate engine knocking, firstly, ensure you're using the correct grade of fuel. If the issue persists, it might be necessary to clean or replace the fuel injectors and spark plugs, or possibly adjust the engine's timing. Regular maintenance is key to preventing such issues. If you're unsure or the problem continues, consulting with a professional mechanic is advisable to avoid potential engine damage.
