What Causes Unstable Idle When the LaCrosse is in D Gear?

Unstable idle when the LaCrosse is in D gear may be caused by blockages between the idle motor and the throttle body, poor contact with the motor carbon brushes, uncleaned carbon deposits in the valve cylinders, oil leakage issues in the vehicle, or poor fuel quality. Visual Inspection: Open the engine hood to inspect and observe the engine's operation, the degree of vibration, and the swing amplitude of the engine tachometer needle to see if it deviates from the expected idle value. Observe whether it is normal idle vibration or load idle vibration; check for any abnormalities in the engine's external components; see if any vacuum tubes are detached or damaged; check for loose electrical connectors; look for any signs of oil, water, air, or electrical leaks (the four leak phenomena); observe if the exhaust pipe exhibits abnormal phenomena such as 'popping,' emitting black smoke, or having a raw gasoline smell; and ensure the throttle cable is properly adjusted. Diagnostic Trouble Code Analysis: Read the codes — clear the codes — run the engine — read the codes again. Refer to the fault code list in the repair manual to understand the causes, effects, and solutions for the fault codes. Do not overlook intermittent fault codes, as unstable idle conditions often coincide with the appearance of intermittent fault codes. Determine the next steps for inspection and repair based on the analysis. If no fault codes are stored, consider the possibility of faults in components not monitored by the control unit.

What is the fuel tank capacity of the Bestune B70 in liters?

Bestune B70 has a fuel tank capacity of 50 liters, which is the officially announced data. The recommended fuel grade for Bestune B70 is 92 octane, with a fuel consumption of 6.1-7.0L per 100 kilometers. A full tank can provide a driving range of 714-820 kilometers. During daily driving, it is necessary to pay attention to the remaining fuel level in the tank. The fuel level is usually observed through the fuel gauge inside the vehicle. If there are no other issues, the fuel level will be accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge typically has 5 to 6 segments, and it is advisable to refuel when there are only 2 segments left to avoid running out of fuel midway. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the calibrated capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity specified by the car manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safety level, and there is additional space from the safety level to the tank opening. This space is designed to accommodate fuel expansion due to temperature increases without causing overflow. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual fuel amount may exceed the calibrated tank capacity.

How many points are deducted for not using the turn signal during a right-angle turn?

Failure to use the turn signal or incorrect use of the turn signal will result in a deduction of 10 points. The specific regulations are as follows: Not using or incorrectly using the turn signal before starting, turning, changing lanes, overtaking, or parking will result in a deduction of 10 points. Turning the steering wheel within less than 3 seconds after activating the turn signal before starting, turning, changing lanes, overtaking, or parking will result in a deduction of 10 points. There are a total of 6 instances in Subject 2 where the turn signal must be used: 1. Activate the left turn signal when starting the vehicle. 2. Activate the left turn signal when starting on a slope. 3. Activate the right turn signal when pulling over for parallel parking, stopping 30 cm from the curb before reversing. 4. Activate the left turn signal before shifting into reverse gear for parallel parking, as the steering wheel will be turned fully to the right during reversing, causing the front of the car to shift left. 5. Shift into drive and activate the left turn signal before exiting the parallel parking space, turning it off promptly after exiting. 6. Activate the left turn signal when entering the right-angle turn area, turning it off promptly after completing the turn. Subject 2 is scored out of 100 points, with criteria for failure, deductions of 20, 10, or 5 points. To pass the test, the following conditions must be met: ① For large buses, tractors, city buses, medium buses, and large trucks, a score of 90 or above is required. ② For other vehicle types, a score of 80 or above is required. The C1 and C2 license tests include five mandatory items: reversing into a garage, parallel parking, slope parking and starting (C2 has canceled this item), right-angle turns, and curve driving (commonly known as S-turns). Some regions also include a sixth item: highway toll card collection. The A1, A2, A3, B1, and B2 license tests include: pole test, slope parking and starting, parallel parking, single-plank bridge crossing, curve driving, right-angle turns, limited-width gate crossing, continuous obstacle crossing, bumpy road driving, narrow road U-turns, as well as simulated highway driving, continuous sharp mountain curves, tunnels, rain (fog) conditions, slippery roads, and emergency handling.

What is the fuel tank capacity of the Besturn X80 in liters?

The fuel tank capacity of the Besturn X80 is 58 liters, as officially announced. The Besturn X80 uses 92-octane gasoline, with a fuel consumption of 7.6-8.1L per 100 kilometers. A full tank can cover a distance of 716-763km. During daily driving, it is necessary to always pay attention to the remaining fuel level in the tank. The fuel level is usually observed through the fuel gauge inside the vehicle. If there are no other issues, the fuel level will be accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge typically has 5 to 6 segments, and it is recommended to refuel when there are about 2 segments left to avoid running out of fuel midway. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the calibrated capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity specified by the car manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safety limit, and there is additional space from the safety limit to the tank opening. This space ensures that the fuel can expand when the temperature rises without overflowing. If the fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the calibrated tank capacity.

What size tires can be fitted on 9.5J wheels?

265mm, 275mm, and 285mm width tires can be fitted on 9.5J wheels. Wheel width (J value) refers to the distance between the two flanges of the wheel. The "9.5" in the wheel specification means 9.5 inches, and "J" represents the shape and height of the wheel flange. The wheel width determines the compatible tire width. Here are the factors to consider when modifying tires: Local traffic regulations: Ensure it doesn't affect vehicle annual inspection approval or warranty; Tire speed and load index; Wheel rim specifications, such as width and offset; Space; Vehicle suspension system; Maintaining the tire's load radius. Tires are the only components of a car that come into contact with the ground, directly affecting driving stability and safety. Being rubber components, tires age over time and need regular replacement. If not replaced for a long time, it can compromise driving stability and safety. Normally, tires can be used for four years once installed, so it's recommended to replace them every four years. When purchasing new tires, always check the production date as tires have a shelf life. Under normal circumstances, the shelf life of unused tires is three years. If the tires have been in storage for over three years since production, they are not recommended for purchase. After installing new tires, it's essential to perform a dynamic balance test on each wheel to prevent abnormal vibrations at high speeds. Such vibrations can adversely affect driving stability and safety. Regularly check tire pressure during daily use. Tire pressure is crucial—it should neither be too high nor too low. Excessive pressure reduces the tire's contact area with the ground, while insufficient pressure can cause wave-like deformation at high speeds. Besides the model, tires also bear the following common data: Tire cord material: Indicated by Chinese pinyin, such as M for cotton cord, R for rayon cord, N for nylon cord, G for steel cord, ZG for steel radial cord. Speed rating: Indicates the maximum speed a tire can carry a specified load under defined conditions. Letters A to Z represent certified speed ratings from 4.8km/h to 300km/h. Common speed ratings include: Q: 160km/h; H: 210km/h; V: 240km/h; W: 270km/h; Y: 300km/h. Wheel rim specification: Shows the compatible wheel rim size for practical use, e.g., standard rim 5.00F.
