Iran cannot force China into a war. If the U.S. or Israel attacked Iran it would probably annoy China, but they don't want to fight a war with the United States.
The reason that we don't want to get involved in Iran is that they have several times the population of Iraq coupled with the dislike of foreign powers of Afghanistan.

China gets an eighth of their oil from Iran. Iran is definitely going to be more than upset if they lose that supply.

But not upset enough to start World War III, which is exactly what would happen if they started a war with the United States. Their economy would be devastated, not to mention the people killed and property damage of a war. They know that it would be much worse than a temporary disruption of a fraction of their oil supply (they would get it back after the war with Iran).
