something broke off in the engine.

I rev my engine with the clutch in as Im putting it into gear so I can get the car to move. If I even need to rev my engine(i.e. when Im working on it or the exhaust and need to hear it) then I do so in neutral.

I was suggesting that revving the engine led to its eventual failure.

Man maybe i shouldnt give the engine gas next time. for any reason.

revving = bad for engine

^Ok mr. comatose the mechanic.

oOo:

revving forces your pistons to work much faster than they were intende to. This can cause mechanical damage to your car over time. You could crack your cylinder, break the rubber air-tight sealer, damage the mechanical arm that moves the piston in and out, or one of a hundred other things.

oh because doing it a handful of times is really going to fuck you over. its not like i topped it out and left it there for 10 minutes.

where did you learn that shit anyway BOCES?

Mechanical Physics class. Doing it a few times CAN fuck your engine

when you say "can" what are the odds exactly of it happening? if revving fucked your engine the way you make it sound, then cars would never be able to survive the track. yeah, revving isn't good if you're just gonna sit there and look like a complete douche but your car won't blow up if you get it close to the redline.

revvin the engine is no different then driving, unless you have the rpm's sitting there at redline for like a minute, that would be bad. its harmless to raise it up a few times, hell even 5 or 10 times..just dont hold it there. all it does it just waste gas

Unknown_Sniper 09-01-2006 09:59 PM

Ive had a friend hold their old beat up almost dead enginges at redline for 9 minutes to see what happened. It did sieze eventually but thats because it was near dead and running without proper maintainence.

"you could crack your cylinder, break the rubber air-tight sealer, damage the mechanical arm that moves the piston in and out"

Yes you could crack the cylinder block, its hard to do but possible without proper cooling and lubrication. The air tight rubber sealer? you mean gasket? gaskets blow, its not the end of the world. Sure a blown head gasket(do you know what a head is?) would cause long term problems but the car would still run. And that mechanical arm is called a connecting rod. All parts of engines can be broken. Some are harder to break than others.
Either way you cant get a car to move without revving the engine, which is in fact for revving.

Arkan 09-02-2006 03:47 PM

Toenail.....why are you reving your engine and what type of engine is it? Anyway, neutral is always used for stuff like that or..... unless you're in gear with your foot on the clutch.

One method of spinning the tires is to get the car rolling, then rev the engine as you depress and release the clutch quickly. This will bring up the RPM's and cause the rear tires to break.

I'll rev the engine during downshifting "heel toe" to completely control the car during heavy braking to match the RPM's to the gear i'm d/loading to. Just depends on what you're trying to accomplish.

Also, as far as damaging your engine, again, it depends on what type of engine it is. Do it to a stock pos cavalier and you may break things....do it to a worked small block and you can do it until the cows come home without damaging a thing.
