2. Dieseling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dieseling

   The vast majority of vehicles manufactured after 1987 are fuel-injected: the injectors and high-pressure fuel pump immediately cease supplying fuel to the cylinders when the ignition is switched off. If the injector is damaged or dirty, a small amount of fuel can enter the chamber and be ignited, causing a sputter or two after the engine is ...

3. Diesel engine runaway - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel_engine_runaway

   Fuel and oil leaks causing engine runaways can have both internal and external causes. Broken seals or a broken turbocharger may cause large amounts of oil mist to enter the inlet manifold, whereas defective injection pumps may cause an unintentionally large amount of fuel to be injected directly into the combustion chamber.

4. High pressure injection injury - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_pressure_injection_injury

   The most common causes are accidents with grease guns, paint sprayers, and pressure washers, but working on diesel and gasoline engine fuel injection systems as well as pinhole leaks in pressurized hydraulic lines can also cause this injury. Additionally, there is at least one known case of deliberate self-injection with a grease gun. [2]

5. Back-fire - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Back-fire

   Common causes of backfire are running rich (too much fuel going into cylinders) or faulty ignition, possibly a fouled (dirty) spark plug, coil, or plug wire. Pop-backs are usually caused by problems with timing. If the timing is too early, the spark plug fires before the intake valves close, causing the combustion to propagate into the intake ...

6. Wet stacking - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wet_stacking

   Another is excessive fueling. That may be caused by weak or leaky injectors, fuel settings turned up too high or over fueling for the given rpms. Cold weather running or other causes that prevent the engine from reaching proper operating temperature can cause a buildup of fuel due to incomplete burn that can result in 'wet stacking'.

7. Did ‘dirty fuel’ play a role in Baltimore bridge collapse?

   The fuel is widely used at major global ports, and has caused at least 200 ships to suffer “serious, sometimes complete engine failure”, the researchers noted, dubbing it “engine killers”.

8. Vapor lock - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vapor_lock

   Vapor lock is a problem caused by liquid fuel changing state to vapor while still in the fuel delivery system of gasoline-fueled internal combustion engines.This disrupts the operation of the fuel pump, causing loss of feed pressure to the carburetor or fuel injection system, resulting in transient loss of power or complete stalling.

9. Top Tier Detergent Gasoline - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Top_Tier_Detergent_Gasoline

   The repair for this type of problem depends on the severity of the deposits. In milder cases, a mechanic may solve the problem by adding a can of fuel-injector cleaner into the gas tank. However, in some cases, the fuel injectors must be replaced. Deposits formed on the intake valves may be removed via walnut shell blasting.
