How to determine whether the Bare Engine breakage is caused by water ingress

2025-07-03

(1) Is the air filter damp or attached to soil? Are there any water marks on the air filter housing and the intake pipe wall?

(2) Check the Bare Engine oil to determine whether the MG Roewe Maxus Engine cylinder has water ingress. After the Bare Engine is flooded, the Bare Engine cylinder head is flooded, and the oil around the exhaust valve seat is milky white, which is the result of the mixture of water and oil.

(3) Whether the Bare Engine has water ingress can be confirmed by checking the piston and connecting rod. The MG Roewe maxus engine cylinder is flooded and causes the Bare Engine to break. The top of the broken connecting rod piston will be very bright (the top of the piston is relatively unbroken). And the broken connecting rod is bent.

In addition, we can also judge by observing the high problem (top dead center) of the piston ring movement on each cylinder sleeve.

It can be found that the top dead center of the cylinder corresponding to the broken connecting rod is significantly lower than that of other cylinders, which can also help us determine that the connecting rod was bent before it broke.
