The quality of an ignition coil can be judged by factors such as cylinder performance and idle vibration. Below are some tips for identifying the quality of an ignition coil: 1. Cylinder malfunction: If a particular cylinder is not working and there is no spark, it can cause idle vibration and weak acceleration. 2. Idle vibration: If the ignition coil is leaking electricity, the engine may or may not vibrate at idle, but it will definitely vibrate and lack power when accelerating. 3. Common causes of failure: Common issues with ignition coils include damage from external forces or burnout due to excessive current. If the ignition coil is damaged, the ignition system will fail to operate, preventing the engine from starting.

What does 98h on a tire mean?

98h is the speed rating and load index of a tire. 98 indicates that the maximum weight this tire can bear is 750 kilograms, and h means the maximum speed this tire can withstand is 210 kilometers per hour. Here are the situations when you need to replace your tires: 1. Perform a thorough cleaning of the car, especially focusing on the tires. If the tire surface is covered with mud-like substances, it can easily hide damages on the tread. During cleaning, check for the presence of mud, cuts, bulges, etc. on the tires.

How to Fix Front Shock Absorbers Not Rebounding?

Methods to repair front shock absorbers of an electric bicycle that do not rebound: Try replacing or adding hydraulic oil. Reasons why front shock absorbers may not rebound are as follows: 1. After long-term use of the vehicle, oxygen and moisture from the air enter the hydraulic system, reacting with the hydraulic oil and causing it to become turbid; 2. Continuous consumption of hydraulic oil leads to insufficient remaining quantity. The functions of shock absorbers are as follows: 1. Support the vehicle body. 2. Transmit various reaction forces from the road surface to the vehicle body. 3. Mitigate body impact and reduce body vibration. 4. Suppress vehicle bouncing, improve tire contact with the ground, and ensure vehicle safety.
