Why is the car not starting in winter?

What are the frequent reasons for the impossibility of starting a car during frost and how to eliminate them? Several tips on this matter can become useful to beginner motorists.

Surely you fell into this situation: winter, air temperature from -20, and you are trying to start the car, and it does not want to start in any way. What is the reason for such a stubborn car, you naturally do not know, since yesterday there were no such problems. What to do in such a situation?

First of all, you should try to turn on the long -range light for half a minute (if you have a weak battery, then you can not do it for more time), and then try to start. It should be borne in mind that the “pogazovka” can only be used on cars with a carburetor. If you have an injector installed, then you do not need to press the gas pedal, t.To. This can lead to the fact that you pour spark plugs and gasoline enters the oil.

If the above method did not bring the result and Jeep Grand Cherokee still does not start in the cold, then the candles should be checked. For this you will need a candle key and another assistant. Having twisted the candle, it is necessary to insert it with a pointed part into the high -voltage wire (this is a black hose you turned out before), and the second part of the candle must be cleaned from oil and scale and brought to the metal part of the car (but not to the external, t.To. This is fraught with damage to the paintwork). One person must start the car, and at this time you will check the candle, bringing it to the engine to a distance of 0.1 to 1 cm. If there is no more than 5 seconds when scrolling a stator, then everything is in order with the candle. If not, then this complete car will need to be replaced.

If everything is in order with the candles, but the Volvo S40 is still not going to start, then experts advise you to buy an ether containing propane, or any other mixture for the quick start of the car. This broadcast is injected into the air filter housing (but only if such a filter is clean), which significantly reduces the time required to start the machine, and also protects the engine.

If even the ether containing propane does not help your car start, then the last thing that remains is to check the fuel system. To do this, you need to get a gasoline pump and check if gasoline has frozen in it. If everything is in order with gasoline, then the gas pump should be attributed to the warm room and leave it to bask there for 2 hours. Then we return the gasoline pump to the same place, but without screwing it, and try to start the car. If, with such attempts, a gasoline pump is buzzing, then it is working, if not, then it should be replaced.
