peer agreement (net): +2The engine seized up Explanation: un motor se "amarra" cuando se produce una de dos situaciones: 1. el motor se queda sin aceite 2. el motor recalienta terriblemente. se le dice "amarrarse" cuando, a raíz de las altas temperaturas, los metales de biela, bancada (cigüeñal) o ambos se funden por las altas temperaturas en el cigüenal y/o en las bielas. esto genera que estas piezas y el motor en general terminen en una condición inservible en casi la totalidad de los casos. se llama amarrarse porque al fundirse estas piezas el motor no gira más. https://www.valvulita.com/content/que-significa-un-motor-ama... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bsezAfuRFkc hola,para saber si esta amrrado o gripado como se dice en españa, https://www.foro.todomecanica.com/dodgechrysler/como_se_si_m... Hola, ¿Sabe alguien como se dice en ingles que se ha gripado un husillo o que se ha gripado el motor de un coche? ¿Que termino se utiliza para decir esa palabra en ingles? Seized up. The car has seized up. This means that the car does not work anymore, perhaps because there was no oil or water in the engine and then the car "seizes up." https://forum.wordreference.com/threads/gripado-del-motor-de... https://www.proz.com/kudoz/spanish-to-english/energy-power-g... Engine seizure is normally the result of a failure of the lubrication system. It is often where a piston has friction welded itself to the cylinder bore. Sometimes it will be the big end bearing , the main bearings or the small end bearing. The net result is the same, though. The engine cannot be rotated. If you are very lucky, and the siezure is only slight, then the engine may free up again when it cools down. But damage will still have been done. Until water cooling and special oils were developed, racing two stroke engines were notorious for piston siezures. https://www.quora.com/What-does-it-mean-when-the-engine-is-s... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 39 mins (2019-08-11 23:38:15 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The difference between engine and motor: engine = a device that uses combustion or heat to produce motion motor = a device that converts electric (or hydraulic) energy into motion https://jakubmarian.com/difference-between-engine-and-motor/ -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 days (2019-08-16 18:29:05 GMT) Post-grading -------------------------------------------------- My pleasure.
