  2. Flooded engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flooded_engine

    Some fuel injection computers interpret "pumping" the throttle to indicate a flooded engine, and alter the fuel-air mixture accordingly. In a carbureted engine equipped with an accelerator pump (which advances fuel flow to match air ingestion under rapid throttle acceleration), "pumping" the throttle will force excess fuel into the engine ...

  3. Engine knocking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine_knocking

    Engines using indirect injection generally have lower levels of knock than direct injection engines, due to the greater dispersal of oxygen in the combustion chamber and lower injection pressures providing a more complete mixing of fuel and air. Diesels actually do not suffer exactly the same "knock" as gasoline engines since the cause is known ...

  4. Hydrolock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrolock

    The engine can be drained as above and restarted. If a corrosive substance such as water has been in the engine long enough to cause rusting, more extensive repairs will be required. Amounts of water significant enough to cause hydrolock tend to upset the air/fuel mixture in gasoline engines.

  5. Idle air control actuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idle_air_control_actuator

    Although the IAC is supposed to last the vehicle's lifetime, various reasons may cause it to fail/malfunction prematurely. The most common failure mode is partial/complete jamming of the actuator (due to dirt/dust or even oil) where it cannot be smoothly controlled. The result is an engine that fails to maintain idle RPM and frequently stalls.

  6. 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.

  7. 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.

  8. Back-fire - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Back-fire

    A fuel-injected engine may backfire if an intake leak is present (causing the engine to run lean), or a fuel injection component such as an air-flow sensor is defective. Common causes of backfires are: Wankel rotary engines are known for leaking oil into the exhaust system which causes backfire.

  9. 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]
