  2. 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.

  3. Hydrolock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrolock

    If an engine hydrolocks while at speed, a mechanical failure is likely. Common damage modes include bent or broken connecting rods, a fractured crank, a fractured head, a fractured block, crankcase damage, damaged bearings, or any combination of these. Forces absorbed by other interconnected components may cause additional damage.

  4. Fuel pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuel_pump

    Since the electric pump does not require mechanical power from the engine, it is feasible to locate the pump anywhere between the engine and the fuel tank. The reasons that the fuel pump is typically located in the fuel tank are: By submerging the pump in fuel at the bottom of the tank, the pump is cooled by the surrounding fuel; Liquid fuel by ...

  5. Fuel starvation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuel_starvation

    British Airways Flight 38 crash-landed at London Heathrow in 2008 after its fuel lines became clogged with ice crystals.. In an internal combustion engine, fuel starvation is the failure of the fuel system to supply sufficient fuel to allow the engine to run properly, for example due to blockage, vapor lock, contamination by water, malfunction of the fuel pump or incorrect operation, leading ...

  6. Diesel engine runaway - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel_engine_runaway

    Diesel engine runaway is an occurrence in diesel engines, in which the engine draws excessive fuel from an unintended source and overspeeds at higher RPMs, producing up to ten times the engine's rated output resulting in a catastrophic mechanical failure due to a lack of lubrication. [1]

  7. Turbine engine failure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbine_engine_failure

    A turbine engine failure occurs when a gas turbine engine unexpectedly stops producing power due to a malfunction other than fuel exhaustion. It often applies for aircraft , but other turbine engines can also fail, such as ground-based turbines used in power plants or combined diesel and gas vessels and vehicles.

  8. Head gasket - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Head_gasket

    Engine knocking (detonation) can be caused by poor quality fuel, an engine fault or if inappropriate fuel and/or ignition settings are trialled/chosen while engine tuning is taking place. If the detonation is severe, the cylinder pressure can increase to eight times above normal pressures, [ citation needed ] which can cause the cylinder head ...

  9. Unit injector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_injector

    The constant stroke pump element on the way up draws fuel from the supply duct in to the chamber, and as long as the electric solenoid valve remains de-energized the fuel line is open. Spill phase The pump element is on the way down, and as long as the solenoid valve remains de-energized the fuel line is open and fuel flows in into the return ...
