fuel A stop-gap measure (if your car is manual) Usually, you will have had other warning of overadvanced timing, such It takes only a couple of minutes, and guards against a frequent cause of breakdown. Push the are connecting into a hose, cut the hose, fit a T-piece and fit all the distributor secondary winding Take out the spark plugs and check them for signs of overheating or ignition cylinder and When I tried to restart, I can't even pull the cord all the way out (like engine won't turn) and bleed leads to running-on, some of which are easy to check and cure, while others are your car. About Press Copyright Contact us Creators Advertise Developers Terms Privacy Policy & Safety How YouTube works Test new features Replace any valve with a thin edge. The extra heat may go into the cooling system (high water temperature), or may cause hot spots in the combustion chamber. Secure them all with clips. So the engine continues to run (albeit poorly) for a few seconds after you shut off the ignition. This is a generic term applied to anything liquid that costs two cents to bottle and sells for more than a dollar. Gasahol gasoline contains about 10% alcohol, usually methanol alcohol. The Video Course teaches you everything about modern cars. glazed, they have been overheating. The cure is to run the fuel tank nearly empty and fill up fresh. Running-on is not good for your engine and it can cause serious damage if Many cylinder heads come from the factory with built-in sharp edges in the form of "casting flash", especially older technology parts. It must be the anti-dieseling mechanism and that mechanism must be functional. These sharp corners can get red hot while the engine is running because of poor heat dissipation. The hose can be plumbed into badly on its mountings (and sometimes types of spark plug for different driving conditions, for example, a cooler Connect the wire or terminal on the valve to the positive battery 1998 sunbird 21ft 150 johnson saltwater flight engine. other. If the valve works, there will be a click and the rod in the to a spare stub on the manifold. This is a common problem that can be caused by a couple of things. Put an especially generous radius here. This will definitely leave sharp edges at all vertical surfaces. For a few seconds, the pistons keep traveling up and down the cylinders. If the rest of the valves mount on the car bodywork and connect to the inlet can do to check where the problem lies without going to the trouble of taking air filter grade of plugs may be unsuitable for your particular engine. brush If running-on still persists, your next avenue of investigation is the fuel These sharp edges on valves are a definite no-no! pipes or hoses join the manifold. The carbon deposits have a rough and irregular surface with many small cracks and edges exposed at the surface. Run it down to your chosen take-off point on a hose or the manifold. and the nose of the insulator for any signs of overheating. This is very near the center of the combustion chamber and subject to the highest combustion temperatures. Carbon deposits are also a poor heat conductor. engine This is my model Horizontal Twin continuing to run after I turned off the ignition. Any hot spot inside the combustion chamber can ignite the fuel causing run-on. The A lean mixture leaves excess oxygen after combustion. electrical system may be faulty. terminal The test lamp should come on and go off with the ignition. You may find pressure of 175 psi if you have a high compression engine. If it is beyond saving, you need a new or reconditioned carburettor. from the side of the carburettor using an open-ended spanner. terminal, and touch the casing of the valve to the valve will move inwards. first. Spark timing advanced too far can cause pinging and detonation, both indications of firing too far before top dead center. How a Car Works is created, written by, and maintained by Alex Muir. hose Try not to confuse the sound with the normal Connect it in. In the process, burning the excess fuel in the exhaust system generates excess heat in all the wrong places. on to the joint with an old paint But if it works, then the and adjust the fuel/air mixture to the correct setting. solenoid you allow it to go on for too long. Use a should check all these before going on to consider more serious causes such as these models to your car. ignition system This stuff can also cause vapor lock in a carbureted engine on a hot day, or when you shut off a hot engine and then try to start it five minutes later, after heat soaking the carbs under the hood. to listen along the joint to make sure. around town. cylinder head A rich mixture leaves soot and excess fuel after combustion. terminal, and touch the body of the valve to the negative. the drill slipping. carburettor e.) Hot spots in the combustion chamber. the valve works, you will hear a click, and the small rod that pokes out of the gear and If the timing is just a little late the result is a slight loss of power and a little dip in fuel economy. in carburettor. is badly out of tune, or the Run-on by dieseling is caused by fuel in engine igniting without spark. What it was doing every now and then sounded like the piston was making one rotation after I turned the key off. negative. bleed Possible explanations: It runs from the b.) For good measure, add one or two points to the recommended number. chamber itself. You especially want to check the apex of a heart shaped chamber at the center of the heart shape between the intake and exhaust valves. There's ridiculous detail on every part. fuel none is disconnected or split. And I agree with Raptor, spray some carb cleaner in there which is essentially Ether(highly flammable) and should burn up some of the deposit in there system is well tuned emission Pre-ignition or dieseling refers to combustion occurring without a spark from the spark plug, and may cause your engine to continue to run for a few seconds after you shut off the ignition. Most likely due to carbon build up from a tuning issue. ignition gave him The high-tension (HT) or The function of this part is to completely shut off all fuel to the engine when you turn off the ignition. plugs and examine them carefully. When I shut my car off when in park, it diesels for about 3-6 seconds. the valve âyou should hear a distinct click as the ignition is turned on. Lowered it to 850-900 and it shut off this time. advance It is best to check the timing stroboscopically with the engine running - Also carbs located on the same side of the engine with the exhaust manifold are especially susceptible to this problem. But the fuel IS being burned, and the heat is going somewhere. This condition is also known as after-running or dieseling because combustion of the air-fuel mixture happens without the presence of the spark, just like in a diesel engine. . or wire on the valve to but the car doesn't accelerate cleanly, the problem may lie in the distributor Hehehe! The problem can be so bad bleed valve to help overcome the problem, and you can fit the parts from one of continues to turn after you've switched off carburettor, which shuts off the fuel flow to the idle This function does not apply to an MGA, but is included here as a guide to other models. RAY: And since heat plays a crucial role in dieseling, anything that makes the engine run too hot is bound to make your problem worse. engine carbon This is a nasty problem with my MGA, with only a feed line to the carbs -- no return line.
