Q
what does engine turn over mean
I'm a seasoned industrial engineer with a keen interest in machine learning. Here to share insights on latest industry trends.
When someone says an engine "turns over," it refers to the process where the engine's components, specifically the crankshaft and pistons, move in coordination to start the combustion cycle, but it doesn't necessarily start running. Essentially, it's the mechanical action initiated by the starter motor when you turn the ignition key or press the start button. This action draws power from the battery to rotate the engine's flywheel, moving the internal mechanisms. If an engine turns over but doesn’t start, this indicates that the mechanical parts are functioning to create movement, but the engine is not igniting the fuel-air mixture required to sustain operation. Common reasons can involve issues with the fuel system, spark plugs, or sensor malfunctions. Troubleshooting typically starts with checking these systems to ensure the engine not only turns over but also starts and runs properly.
