During straight-line driving, it is permissible to adjust the steering wheel. Below are relevant operational guidelines: 1. Lightly grip the steering wheel: Holding the steering wheel tightly does not ensure straighter driving. In fact, a lighter grip facilitates better vehicle control. 2. Slight steering adjustments: When noticing the vehicle deviating, minor left or right adjustments to the steering wheel are sufficient, ensuring to return it to the original position. Oversteering can easily cause the vehicle to veer off course. 3. Focus on the farthest point of the lane: Keeping your gaze fixed on the distant end of the lane helps maintain straight driving and makes it easier to detect any deviation, allowing for timely corrections. 4. Use peripheral vision to observe nearby reference points: To assess whether the vehicle is driving straight, observe the distance between certain parts of the vehicle and lane markings, fences, or other reference points using your peripheral vision to detect any changes.

Where is the Throttle Position Sensor Located?

The throttle position sensor is located on the throttle body. As the throttle opening changes and the throttle shaft rotates, it drives the sliding of the electrical brush inside the sensor or the rotation of the guide cam, converting the throttle opening angle signal into an electrical signal sent to the ECU. Modern vehicles typically use a linear output-type throttle position sensor. The function of the throttle position sensor is to detect whether the engine is in idle condition or under load, and whether it is accelerating or decelerating. Symptoms of throttle position sensor failure include: 1. Causing engine shaking and unstable idle; 2. Feeling weak power or inability to accelerate during sudden acceleration.

At what tread depth should tires be replaced?

Tires should be replaced when the tread depth is less than 2.5mm. A tread depth standard greater than 3.5mm is considered good condition, while between 2.5mm and 3.5mm is normal. When it reaches the minimum limit of 1.6mm, replacement is mandatory. Key considerations for tire replacement include: 1. Selecting tires of the same specification; 2. Replacing the valve stem simultaneously; 3. Paying attention to installation direction and inflation; 4. Checking tire pressure; 5. Performing a four-wheel alignment after replacement. The functions of tires are: 1. Transmitting driving force, braking force, and steering force to enable vehicle operation; 2. Supporting vehicle load; 3. Reducing and absorbing vibrations and impacts during driving to prevent severe vibrations from damaging automotive components.

Is a Lighter Prone to Explode in a Car?

Lighters are prone to explode in cars. The reason for this is: lighters contain pressurized gas. If placed on the dashboard or instrument panel where they are exposed to direct sunlight, the gas inside the lighter will continuously expand after prolonged exposure to heat. Upon reaching a critical point, an explosion can occur, which may cause severe damage to the vehicle. The main component of lighters is liquid butane, which is highly flammable and explosive. At normal room temperature of 20°C, it can explode. When a lighter is placed in an environment exceeding 55°C, its volume will expand. It is recommended that drivers who have the habit of smoking while driving should remember to take their lighters with them when exiting the vehicle to avoid potential hazards.

Can a car battery be charged directly in the vehicle when it's dead?

When a car battery is dead, it can be charged directly in the vehicle. During engine startup, the starter draws a significant current, which a regular charger cannot supply. If the battery is completely dead, the car won't start. However, if the engine can be started, the alternator will then charge the battery. The functions of a car battery include: 1. Providing power to the starting system, ignition system, and electronic fuel injection system during engine startup; 2. Supplying power to vehicle electrical equipment when the engine is off or idling at low speed; 3. Assisting in powering electrical devices when the alternator's output is insufficient; 4. Absorbing voltage spikes in the electrical system to protect electronic components; 5. Storing excess electricity generated by the alternator.

What are the two common cooling methods for engines?

Engines generally have two cooling methods: air cooling and water cooling. Air cooling involves numerous cooling fins on the engine block to increase the contact area with air; water cooling utilizes a cooling system where coolant continuously circulates within the engine to dissipate heat. The main components of an engine include: 1. Valve train; 2. Crankshaft connecting rod mechanism; 3. Ignition system; 4. Cooling system; 5. Lubrication system; 6. Starting system; 7. Fuel supply system. The function of an engine is to convert the thermal energy of gasoline or diesel into mechanical energy by burning the fuel in a sealed cylinder, causing gas expansion that drives the piston to perform work.
