Scooters generally require an engine oil change every 2,000 kilometers ridden. Below are the functions and composition of scooter engine oil: Functions of scooter engine oil: Engine oil, also known as engine lubricant, serves to lubricate and reduce friction, assist in cooling, seal against leaks, prevent rust and corrosion, and provide shock absorption for the engine. It is often referred to as the "blood" of the vehicle. Composition of scooter engine oil: Engine oil consists of two main components: base oil and additives. The base oil is the primary constituent of the lubricant, determining its fundamental properties, while additives compensate for and enhance the performance shortcomings of the base oil, imparting certain new characteristics. Additives are an essential part of the lubricant.

Is the Accelerator Pedal the Throttle?

The accelerator pedal is the throttle. The throttle in a car is generally controlled by a pedal, which is a device that regulates the fuel supply to the engine. When starting the engine, do not press the accelerator pedal all the way down; it is better to keep it slightly above the idle throttle. Below is some related information about the throttle: 1. Brief Description: The accelerator pedal, also known as the throttle pedal, is part of the car's fuel supply system. By controlling the amount of pressure applied to it, the throttle opening of the engine is adjusted, regulating the air intake, while the computer controls the fuel amount, thereby controlling the engine's speed. 2. Handling: In the case of a new car experiencing throttle pedal issues, do not panic. Follow the advice of professionals (in fact, this is the only reasonable approach), press the brake pedal firmly to bring the car to a complete stop, turn off the engine, and then contact for assistance.

What are the symptoms of low engine oil in a car?

Symptoms of low engine oil in a car include the oil warning light illuminating and engine cylinder scuffing. Oil warning light illuminating: When oil is low, it may affect the engine oil pressure, causing the oil warning light on the dashboard to illuminate. Additionally, engine noise may increase when oil is low. Engine cylinder scuffing: During engine operation, engine oil forms a protective film on lubricated components, preventing direct contact between parts and reducing wear. If friction components come into direct contact, it can lead to severe wear and generate intense heat instantly, resulting in engine cylinder scuffing or bearing seizure. Functions of engine oil: Lubrication: The primary function of engine oil is to lubricate engine pistons, bearings, and other components. Rust prevention: Engine oil helps prevent corrosion of metal components. Cleaning: It filters out debris and metal wear particles generated during engine operation through the oil filter, maintaining the cleanliness of the lubrication system.

What is the maximum wading depth of the Sagitar?

The maximum wading depth of the Sagitar is 310mm. The wading depth of the Sagitar is determined by the height of the vehicle's chassis, which is the ground clearance listed in the model's parameter configuration table. Generally, the greater the ground clearance, the higher the chassis, and the higher the safety factor when driving through waterlogged roads. Therefore, in terms of safe wading depth, the advantages of off-road vehicles and SUVs are obvious. However, for most compact and small cars with low chassis, the position of the vehicle's air intake should be used as a reference when passing through waterlogged roads. If the air intake of the Sagitar is below the water level during wading, water will be sucked into the engine's cylinders. Since water cannot be compressed like air, it will cause severe damage to the engine's mechanical components (such as connecting rods, pistons, crankshafts, etc.). Therefore, the wading depth should not exceed the height of the engine's air intake. The height of the engine's air intake, and thus the maximum wading depth, can also be increased by installing a snorkel. If wading is unavoidable, the following safe and correct operations should be performed: Before driving through water, always turn off the auto start-stop function to prevent the engine from automatically restarting after stalling in water, which could cause severe damage due to water entering the engine. Assess the underwater road conditions based on the passage of preceding vehicles and choose an appropriate entry point. Observe the path taken by other vehicles and follow their tracks at low speed, avoiding sudden acceleration or deceleration. On roads prone to water accumulation, observe warning water level markers, trees, or reference points like the wheels and doors of other vehicles to estimate the water depth before deciding whether to proceed. Be aware of your vehicle's safe wading depth. If the water depth exceeds half the height of the tires or the engine's air intake, do not proceed and choose an alternative route instead.
