What to do if the engine is watering How to deal with the water in the engine

1. If the engine is just mixed with water vapor and enters the air filter, we only need to deal with it simply, and clean the water vapor from the air filter, throttle valve and cylinder.

2. If the engine has a lot of water, but it does not affect the normal driving, but the sound is relatively loud, it may be a small amount of water in the engine oil and gasoline, we need to change the oil and clean up the engine-related parts.

3. If there is a lot of water, the engine has been flooded, but the car has not been started, the engine has not caused damage, we need to drain the water, clean it up, and reinstall it and change the oil.

4. If the engine has a lot of water and cannot be driven after starting, the cylinder, connecting rod and piston of the engine have been deformed at this time, and the engine can be considered to have been scrapped, and we can only replace the new engine or scrap the car directly.

Water in the engine is not covered by the basic vehicle damage insurance, and you need to select the "Special Engine Damage Insurance" option at the time of insurance to get a claim. It's important to note that if you force the car to start the car again after the engine of your vehicle has been flooded and the engine is damaged, the insurance company will consider it intentional and will not pay compensation.

1. If your vehicle is flooded, whether it is parking and soaking in water or driving into water, don't save it alone, let alone start again, call a tow truck to minimize the loss.

2. Once something happens, don't worry about not being within the scope of the insurance claim, and call the insurance company to prepare the case (be sure to report the case within 24 o'clock).

Inspection method: Method 1 Check the engine oil. The easiest way to do this is to check if the color of the oil is abnormal, if the oil turns milky white, it means that there is water in the tank or engine.

Method 2: Check whether each pipe is flooded. Check whether there are obvious traces of water ingress in the air filter and the casing under the air filter one by one, and check whether there are obvious traces of water in the air intake pipe and air intake manifold.

Method 3: Check the spark plugs. Remove the spark plugs from each cylinder and check for moisture, if so, it will indicate signs of water ingress into the engine.

Method 4: Check the engine cylinder wall for traces of carbon deposits. When the engine is working normally, the position of the piston of each cylinder to the top dead center is the same, and the position of the top dead center of the cylinder wall is clear. When the engine is flooded, the piston cannot reach the original top dead center position because the water is difficult to be compressed, the piston movement stroke becomes shorter, and the top dead center position will move down significantly.

Workaround:1The car has driven out of the deep water area, do not turn off the engine immediately, let the engine idle for a period of time, evaporate the water traces of the engine, gearbox, clutch, including exhaust pipe and other parts, so as not to rust, it is best to be able to run for a while to evaporate the brake water.

2.If the car stalls when it enters deep water, the owner should push the vehicle out of the deep water area to ensure that the engine air intake does not draw in any more moisture and park in a safe place. Remove the spark plug, artificially cut off the fuel supply system and ignition system, and then use the motor to transport the first motor, so that the water entering the engine can be discharged smoothly.

3.At the same time, check the oil status of each system of the vehicle, and replace it in time if there is foaming and turbidity.

4.After the test is completed, compressed air should be used to clean the electrical connection parts inside the engine compartment to prevent corrosion caused by moisture accumulation in the electrical connection parts.

5.After the cleanup, the vehicle road test is carried out to confirm that the engine is free of abnormal noise during driving. If there is significant driving noise, check the engine bearings and rotating parts.

However, if the engine does not rotate when starting after removing the spark plug, it means that the engine has been killed and can only be disposed of in the pit.

Note: If the vehicle wades into water and stalls, regardless of whether the owner starts it again or not, once the engine enters the water, the insurance company will not be responsible for compensation.

2.If the vehicle is flooded while stationary, the insurance company will be responsible for the damage caused by the owner's failure to force the start.

3.Compensation is available for damage to the engine due to water ingress during heavy rainstorms, but not if the engine is caused by driving in the water during normal weather.

4.There is no compensation for damage caused by starting again after the fire is turned off in the water.

When water enters the engine, the fuel and lubricating oil need to be drained, and then cleaned.

What to do if the engine is flooded is as follows:1. If the water ingress into the engine is not serious, but only some water enters from the air filter, then only the water vapor on the air filter, cylinder and throttle valve needs to be cleaned.

2. If the engine has a little more water, but it does not affect the normal driving of the vehicle, but the engine is very loud. It may be that gasoline and engine oil are mixed with a small amount of water, and the owner should replace the chain oil as soon as possible, and clean the engine-related parts.

3. If there is a lot of water intake into the engine, the vehicle cannot be started and cannot be driven, and the cylinders, pistons and connecting rods of the engine may have all been deformed. If the above situation occurs, the engine is almost scrapped and cannot be repaired, and the owner needs to replace the engine with a new one, or simply scrap the vehicle.

What should I do if the engine gets water?

Now it is rare for the engine to enter the water in winter, but the previous month in the south because of the typhoon once entered the sea-watching mode, so the engine water ingress is inevitable. The engine got into the water, and most people panicked and didn't know what to do. And this topic was once a hot search topic on Weibo, which shows the importance of this matter.

Let's talk about what to do if the engine gets water, and the solution to the engine water ingress.

Ordinary people will feel that there is a problem with the car after wading in the rain, but when they die, they don't know that the water enters from the **, and they don't know if there is a problem with the car's engine. In fact, it can be judged by whether the vehicle is turned off or not. When the vehicle is not turned off, there is no water in the engine.

At this point, the engine should be allowed to idle at any speed. Generally, some water stains can be evaporated and dried by the movement of the vehicle. Of course, if the vehicle line is not eroded by water, otherwise, it is easy to short-circuit.

What to do if the engine gets water:

1.The vehicle must not be started after the ignition is turned off, otherwise it is easy to damage the engine of the vehicle, and the vehicle has no way to claim compensation. All we have to do is find someone to push the cart, push the cart out of the deep water, push it to the side of the road, and then wipe the distributor on the cart with a paper or cloth to drain the water from the combustion chamber.

If you can't operate it yourself, call the insurance company immediately.

2.Claims, in general, many people know that the engine got into the water. In fact, you still have to pay part of the money yourself, and there are conditions for claims.

Generally, after the engine is turned off, if the owner still has a starting car, the insurance company will not pay compensation. This situation will be resolved if the vehicle is flooded in the underground garage, and the engine will be resolved during a rainstorm. On the contrary, under normal weather, the engine wading will not be claimed.

3.There is also a situation where your car gets water when it wades in the rain, and because the engine starts again, so the water gets in, but this insurance company will not compensate for it. But when I bought the insurance, it was a project of the 4S store, so the owner didn't know that he couldn't start the car, and he didn't know that this was the reason for the deductible of the vehicle damage insurance.

Accordingly, 4S stores can still claim compensation. Of course, this was not taking advantage, and his own car also suffered.

What should I do if water enters the engine? That's all for the solution to the water ingress into the engine. If this happens later, you don't have to worry either.

Although it still costs a lot of money to repair the engine, at least you know how to deal with it, so that it is not so expensive to repair the engine. And we all know that the value of a used car depreciates after the vehicle gets water, but at least learning these methods can save your engine and make it live longer.

Solution:

1. If the car stalls in the water due to water ingress into the engine, do not start the engine immediately, but tow the car to a safe area.

2. If water enters the cylinder block and then tries to start the engine, the effect of water is different from that of engine oil, which will cause the shape of important parts of the engine to change or even break. If it is determined that the engine is flooded, the measure taken is to tow the car to an auto repair shop for repairs.

Impact: It can be repaired to a certain extent, but even if it is repaired, there are serious hidden dangers, and the longer the soaking time, the higher the probability of failure.

On rainy days, many roads are seriously waterlogged, and car dealers can always receive rescue from many owners of flooded trailers**. Water ingress into the engine is definitely a fatal internal injury to the car. We should start by driving and stopping, regardless of whether the emergency treatment is correct or not, otherwise, it is easy to damage the body due to flooding.

Driving: Never restart after a fire.

Experts in vehicle maintenance remind that every time there is heavy rainfall, many roads will have deep water, so you should pay great attention to the depth of water on the road when driving. If the water is more than 20 cm deep (some models with a high chassis, such as SUVs, can pass through 30 cm of water), do not wade. Especially for some older models, due to the low intake and exhaust ports, water will be sucked back into the engine from the exhaust pipe, causing stalling.

When driving on waterlogged roads, you should put on a low gear and pass slowly. In particular, do not "collect oil" when passing over waterlogged roads, because when "collecting oil", the pipe used to exhaust when refueling will create a strong suction force that will suck water back into the engine.

If your car accidentally gets water while driving, you should turn off the engine immediately and never restart it. Because the stagnant water entering the cylinder block has no lubrication function, restarting the engine will cause serious wear and tear on the engine piston and cylinder block, and even lead to the scrapping of the engine in serious cases, and the loss is often more than 10,000 yuan.

Parking: Find out about the garage drainage in advance.

If your car breaks down in the water, don't try to drive it away by setting it on fire. When the water is still rising, you have to seek the help of three or five passers-by, push the car to the road where there is no water, and wait for the rescue vehicle to arrive.

Maintenance: After immersion, the vehicle line needs to be overhauled.

After wading, due to repeated flooding, it may affect the performance of some parts of the car, causing the car to fail to start normally. The first thing to do is to check the circuit, because turbid rain is the best conductor, and the circuit is likely to cause a short circuit when it encounters water. Secondly, check whether the brake system is flooded.

Due to the strong adsorption force of the braking system, rainwater can easily enter the brake fluid, which will affect the braking effect and may seriously cause brake failure. It is recommended to go to a professional repair shop for inspection after the rain to prevent future troubles.

Below the water level of 30 centimeters of stool meters (generally subject to the side skirt of the body), if the owner does not operate improperly, the damage to the vehicle is not great. If you soak in a water level of more than 30 cm for a long time, it may cause damage to the circuit board in the car, etc. Immersion in water can cause damage to buses, harness interfaces, computer modules, and circuit sections, and module operation will be distorted after oxidation of the circuit and need to be replaced.

For vehicles with a water depth of more than 50 cm, all hidden dangers can only be eliminated by replacing all electrical appliances and circuits.

If the whole car is completely or mostly flooded, it is necessary to thoroughly disassemble, clean and dry the seats and carpets of the whole car in the 4S shop, and overhaul the electrical appliances and circuits of the whole car.
