Here are common diesel engine failures and their repair methods: 1. Diesel engine exhaust valve stuck: Start steadily in low gear, wait for the RPM and power to increase before steadily climbing a slope. Maintain the correct position of the exhaust port, ensuring the angle between the exhaust port and the ground is greater than 45°. When cutting the exhaust valve guide, leave a certain internal chamfer to increase the storage capacity of lubricating oil. 2. Incorrect fuel supply from the injection pump: Open the inspection window of the injection pump and check whether the fastening screws of the gear ring are loose or detached, and whether the scribe lines on the gear ring and the drum are aligned. If there is any deviation, align and fasten them. If the fault phenomenon is alleviated but does not disappear when the fuel supply to a certain cylinder is cut off, it indicates not only that the fuel supply of that cylinder is excessive but also that other cylinders have excessive fuel supply. In this case, the injection pump should be recalibrated.

Is it necessary to go to a 4S shop for damage assessment?

How to Adjust the Sensitivity of an Electronic Throttle Pedal?

The sensitivity of the throttle can be adjusted by modifying the throttle cable. Below is more relevant information: 1. Throttle Pedal: A throttle pedal is a vehicle accessory that allows the driver to control the pedal more freely, enhancing driving safety. Most throttle pedals are designed with aluminum alloy, and adding a throttle pedal can significantly increase the vertical contact area of the pedal. 2. General Principles of Throttle Control: Except in emergencies, drivers should remember these eight words in most situations: 'Press lightly, lift slowly, smoothly and evenly.' Stomping on the throttle not only causes the vehicle to jerk suddenly but also wastes fuel, making passengers inside the car feel uncomfortable with sudden movements. When pressing the throttle, the right heel should rest on the floor of the driver's compartment as a pivot point, with the foot lightly pressing on the accelerator pedal. The ankle joint's flexion and extension should be used to press or release the pedal, applying force gently to achieve a light press and slow lift.

Is it normal to feel a bit dizzy when looking at the newly applied car film?

It is not normal to feel a bit dizzy when looking at the newly applied car film. This may be due to uncleaned glass during the film application or quality issues with the film itself, resulting in low clarity of the film. Below are precautions to take after applying car film: 1. Do not roll the windows up or down: After applying the car film, the film has not fully adhered to the car glass. Avoid rolling the windows up or down within three days. 2. Do not wash the car: Avoid washing the car within three days and do not wipe the film with hard objects. 3. Water bubble phenomenon: On the second day after applying the film, water mist and bubbles usually appear, which is a normal phenomenon. The moisture will evaporate after exposure to sunlight. 4. Applying film in winter: If the film is applied in winter, do not roll the windows up or down or wash the car within a week. Moisture evaporates more slowly in winter, and the front and rear windows may take a month to completely dry. The rear window heating wires should not be turned on within a month.
