Not all vehicles are suitable for fully synthetic engine oil. For some micro, small, and compact cars, it is unnecessary to use fully synthetic oil throughout, as excessively high viscosity can lead to increased fuel consumption. Below is extended information about fully synthetic engine oil: 1. Currently, the market mainly offers semi-synthetic and fully synthetic engine oils, with fully synthetic being the highest grade and considered the best. Many people, when getting their cars serviced, hear sales personnel extolling the various benefits of fully synthetic oil—such as improving vehicle power, reducing fuel consumption, and minimizing engine carbon buildup—and end up purchasing it blindly. 2. It is generally advised not to use fully synthetic oil for older vehicles, as this not only wastes money but may also potentially damage the engine. Nowadays, many cars have specially formulated engine oils designed specifically for them.

How to Handle a Rear Tire Blowout While Driving?

Methods to handle a rear tire blowout while driving: Never slam on the brakes. Instead, gradually correct the steering while applying intermittent braking until the vehicle comes to a complete stop. The correct procedure for a tire blowout is: firmly grip the steering wheel, adjust the direction, smoothly bring the vehicle to a halt or use engine braking, and apply intermittent braking as needed to decelerate until the vehicle stops. Sudden braking during a rear tire blowout can cause fishtailing. If fishtailing occurs, steer in the direction of the fishtail to regain control and avoid oversteering or understeering. A tire blowout refers to the phenomenon where a tire suddenly loses air due to rupture in an extremely short time (usually less than 0.1 seconds), leading to a flat tire. It is one of the frequent accidents in automobiles, mostly caused by improper tire maintenance by the owner.
