The cylinder head is a crucial part of engine or combustion chamber which helps to produce energy in a proper
measurement for vehicle use.

How Cylinder Is Helpful To Create Combustion?

Cylinder is the core of every engine where a piston lies inside which moves up & down to compress the fuel-air and produces
energy.

But when there is a problem with cylinder, the owner should look for the tell-tale symptoms that will help to resolve the
issue in the first stage.

Number of cylinder pattern in vehicles:-
![Page 8: The Easy Way To Detect Car Cylinder Head Problems](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021509/58ad20271a28ab50728b5b2b/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
There are different pattern of cylinder arrangement found in vehicles. Standard cars have
usually 4 cylinders but some others differ from one another.
![Page 9: The Easy Way To Detect Car Cylinder Head Problems](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021509/58ad20271a28ab50728b5b2b/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The luxury vehicles have 6-8 cylinders while sport cars have 10-12 minimum.

The vehicle with more cylinders gives a smooth ride as well as delivers more energy for day to day use.
![Page 11: The Easy Way To Detect Car Cylinder Head Problems](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021509/58ad20271a28ab50728b5b2b/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The cylinders are arranged in different ways, but 3 simple ways are mostly used in vehicles.
![Page 12: The Easy Way To Detect Car Cylinder Head Problems](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021509/58ad20271a28ab50728b5b2b/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The arrangements are :- Inline
:- V :- Flat
![Page 13: The Easy Way To Detect Car Cylinder Head Problems](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021509/58ad20271a28ab50728b5b2b/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Inline arrangement :- The cars with 6 cylinders always have inline arrangements. The cylinders are placed in a row in
this arrangement design.
![Page 14: The Easy Way To Detect Car Cylinder Head Problems](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021509/58ad20271a28ab50728b5b2b/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
V-type arrangement :- The vehicles with 8 or more cylinders,they are arranged in 2 row
wise and it looks like V shape.
![Page 15: The Easy Way To Detect Car Cylinder Head Problems](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021509/58ad20271a28ab50728b5b2b/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Flat arrangement :- The vehicles with 12 or more cylinders have a flat arrangement in place which follows a 2 row style
that is opposite to one another.

Symptoms of Cylinder Head Problem :-
Foul Odor :- If there is a strong odor coming from the beneath of engine hood, then its a tell-tale sign of cylinder
head problem.

Smoke :- If there is a gray smoke coming out from exhaust
pipe, then it's a sign of engine overheating due to improper combustion and that leads to cylinder issues.

Leak :- If there are coolant leaks found on ground
while you park, then it's a direct sign of broken cylinder head.

Engine misfire :- Engine misfire always caused by cylinder failure issues. If the vehicle user ignores it in the
first stage, there will be a sign of heavy shaking or vibrating engine.

The engine timing off is also an issue due to cylinder head problem.
![Page 21: The Easy Way To Detect Car Cylinder Head Problems](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021509/58ad20271a28ab50728b5b2b/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Sometimes a brand new car also experiences cylinder head cracking issue if the parts are installed incorrectly or there is a
problem with the metal.
![Page 22: The Easy Way To Detect Car Cylinder Head Problems](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021509/58ad20271a28ab50728b5b2b/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
The cylinder head cracking is a common problem in vehicles as the manufacturers always mix metals in engine and cylinder
head.
![Page 23: The Easy Way To Detect Car Cylinder Head Problems](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021509/58ad20271a28ab50728b5b2b/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
The most common cause of cylinder head problem is engine overheating as the heat puts more stress on the cylinder head.
![Page 24: The Easy Way To Detect Car Cylinder Head Problems](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021509/58ad20271a28ab50728b5b2b/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
The rapid change in the temperature of engine due to thermal stress also causes problem to the cylinder head.
![Page 25: The Easy Way To Detect Car Cylinder Head Problems](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021509/58ad20271a28ab50728b5b2b/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
To prevent the overheating and cylinder problems, keep the radiator full and in proper
condition.
![Page 26: The Easy Way To Detect Car Cylinder Head Problems](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021509/58ad20271a28ab50728b5b2b/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
If the cylinder head is slightly warped, then check and replace it before it starts to cause more problem to the car.
