What Causes the Shock Absorber to Make Noise When Passing Over Potholes at 70 km/h?

70 km/h over potholes shock absorber noise is mainly caused by not slowing down when passing over large potholes or rough road surfaces. Below are some relevant introductions about driving on uneven roads: 1. Driver's posture: When driving on uneven roads, the driver should maintain the correct driving posture, with the upper body close to the seat back and both hands holding the steering wheel, trying not to let the upper body sway or jump. If the body loses stability due to the vehicle's jumping, it will affect uniform acceleration and thus lose control of the vehicle. 2. Method of passing through roads: When passing through short and slightly uneven roads, you can coast in neutral gear. On continuous small uneven road surfaces, maintain an appropriate speed and drive at a constant speed, and try to choose relatively flat ground to pass through slowly.

What are the reasons for a single-cylinder gasoline engine failing to start?

1. Electrical or electronic failure: This type of failure occurs very suddenly without any warning. Electrical failures include: blown fuse, open circuit in the high-voltage coil, open circuit in the low-voltage circuit, detached central ignition wire, leaking distributor rotor, or damaged spark plug. Electronic failure mainly refers to the malfunction of the central computer control board. 2. Fuel system failure: Symptoms include engine weakness or the accelerator pedal feeling like stepping on cotton. Possible causes include: fuel pump failure, blocked fuel line, clogged fuel filter, carburetor failure, or damaged injector. Sometimes, the fuel tank may be empty without the owner realizing it. If this is the cause, adding a few liters of gasoline can solve the problem. 3. Mechanical failure: Common mechanical failures include: broken timing belt (or chain), cylinder leakage with no pressure, etc. 4. Battery failure: Visually inspect the battery casing. If it appears swollen or deformed, it definitely needs replacement. Besides the battery, other reasons for the starter not working could be a damaged ignition switch, faulty ignition relay, or a defective starter itself. Additionally, check the grounding circuit and fuses.
