The spark plugs in a Magotan should be replaced every 30,000 kilometers. Methods to determine if the spark plugs are damaged: Remove the spark plugs and observe them. The condition of the spark plugs can be judged based on their appearance and color. A normal spark plug will have an insulator skirt and electrodes that appear gray-white, gray-yellow, or light brown. A properly functioning spark plug will have a reddish-brown insulator skirt, with an electrode gap between 0.8-0.9mm and no signs of electrode burning. If the spark plugs are covered with oil or deposits but are not damaged, they can continue to be used after cleaning off the oil and deposits. If the spark plugs are severely damaged, showing signs such as blistering at the top, black streaks, cracks, or melted electrodes, the cause of the damage should be identified. After troubleshooting, replace the spark plugs with new ones. Additionally, if the spark plugs appear black as if smoked, it indicates that the wrong heat range was selected or that the air-fuel mixture is too rich, with oil creeping up.

How Often Should a Dry Dual-Clutch Transmission Be Replaced?

Dry dual-clutch transmissions typically need replacement every ten years or so. Their primary functions are to ensure smooth vehicle starts, reduce impact loads on transmission gears during gear shifts, and prevent drivetrain overload. These transmissions are designed to both transmit and cut off power. In dry dual-clutch systems, the clutch plates directly engage with the engine flywheel, with air serving as the connecting medium. The working principle of a dry dual-clutch transmission is as follows: one clutch controls the odd-numbered gears, while the other handles the even-numbered gears. When one gear is engaged, the other clutch and its corresponding next gear are already in standby mode, allowing for immediate engagement of the next gear as soon as the current one is disengaged.

What are the causes of engine emission failure?

Engine emission failures can be caused by: 1. Sensor issues: When water temperature, crankshaft position, air flow, intake temperature, or oxygen sensors are damaged, have poor connections, or experience signal interruptions, the vehicle's ECU cannot accurately obtain engine data; 2. Maintenance problems: Irregular maintenance and poor driving habits can increase the operational burden on the engine; 3. Fuel quality issues: The fuel added to the car has specific octane ratings, and failure to meet these requirements can cause engine wear; 4. Poor mixture combustion: This can lead to engine carbon buildup or knocking issues, which will be detected by the engine's oxygen sensor; 5. False faults: These may occur due to impacts while driving, tampering with certain engine connectors, or temporary ECU signal interruptions.

What does engine misfire mean?

Engine misfire refers to the failure of the spark plug to ignite. The reasons for misfire are: 1. Poor contact or excessive resistance in the ignition coil corresponding to the cylinder, or damage to the ignition coil; 2. Leakage or open circuit in the cylinder's distributor wire; 3. Excessive or insufficient spark plug gap, or carbon deposits between the electrodes; 4. The vehicle's insulated wires and cables do not meet the vehicle's own environmental requirements; 5. Insufficient wire fixation strength and unreasonable wiring; 6. The powertrain control module detects lower than normal air flow and sensor output, resulting in an excessively lean air-fuel mixture; 7. Air in the intake system bypasses the air flow sensor, leading to an excessively lean air-fuel mixture.
