Q
how to tell if car engine is blown
I'm a seasoned industrial engineer with a keen interest in machine learning. Here to share insights on latest industry trends.
Determining a blown engine involves recognizing key symptoms that indicate severe internal damage. Common signs include excessive smoke from the exhaust, indicating oil or coolant burning; a loud knocking noise from the engine caused by damaged bearings; loss of power and a noticeable reduction in engine performance; and the presence of metal particles in the oil, indicative of internal parts wearing down prematurely. Additionally, a non-starting engine could signal catastrophic failure. To confirm suspicions, a compression test can reveal significant loss in engine pressure, while a coolant system test might indicate a breached head gasket, a common culprit. It's vital to address these signs early by consulting a professional mechanic, as driving with a blown engine can lead to further damage and safety risks.
