SYSTEM FOR DIAGNOSING COMPONENT FAILURES OF A COMBUSTION ENGINE

A system for diagnosing component failures of a combustion engine may include a pair of temperature sensors arranged on respective left and right exhaust manifolds of a combustion engine, a pair of pressure sensors arranged on respective left and right intake manifolds of the combustion engine, and a computing device in data communication therewith. The computing device may be configured for receiving temperature values and pressure signals and calculating delta temperature values and delta pressure values. The computing device may establish trend lines for the temperature values, the pressure values, the delta temperature values, and the delta pressure values and may compare the trend lines to a plurality of signatures stored on the computer readable storage medium. The computing device may identify a signature of the plurality of signatures that corresponds to the trend lines and classify the time as exhibiting a particular component failure.
