Description
What is a cylinder head and how does it fail?
Cylinder head is a crucial part of all combustion engines, and
cylinder head cracking can result in catastrophic damage to the
engine. In some cases, cylinder head cracking may result in such
severe injury to the engine that it must be replaced. As a result,
most motorists try to prevent cylinder head cracking, as an ounce
of prevention in this case is worth many pounds of cure. The causes
of cylinder head cracking are all relatively simple and easy to
prevent, except in the case of mechanical parts failure through no
fault of the operator.
The cylinder head, used in combination with a head gasket, seals
the cylinders of the car, along with other parts associated with
them. The cylinder head is customized for the vehicle, and has very
precisely milled surfaces to provide a smooth and flush fit with
all connecting parts. In the case of a minor crack, the cylinders
may lose compression and misfire. Major cracks can cause severe
damage to the cylinders of the engine. For this reason, when
replacing either the cylinder head or the head gasket, make sure
that you are using the correct parts, including bolts, for the job,
for this reason it is recommended that you use a reliable
specialist like HEAD TECH.
Even a brand new car can experience cylinder head cracking if parts
have been installed incorrectly or if there are weaknesses in the
metal. Especially in the case of a vehicle which is still under
warranty, drivers should contest the cylinder head cracking with
the dealer. Be certain to inspect any vehicle before you purchase
to check for weak spots in the metal or incorrectly installed
components. This includes the cylinder head gasket, because
improper installation of this vital part can cause cylinder head
cracking.
