Methods for driving on curves are as follows: 1. Before entering a sharp turn, it is essential to control the vehicle's position, ideally entering the curve from the exact center. After entering the curve, locate the first reference point by observing the right side of the front of the car, ensuring the right edge follows the curve. Generally, turn the steering wheel 90 degrees first, then gradually adjust the direction to keep the vehicle moving without crossing the line. 2. When reaching the middle of the S-curve, quickly straighten the steering wheel and drive straight for a short distance. Once the middle of the front aligns with the left curve, adjust the steering wheel again. 3. Opposite to the first step when entering the curve, observe the left side of the front following the curve. Upon seeing the exit of the S-curve, straighten the steering wheel and drive out.

In my actual driving experience, I've summarized some techniques for curve driving, mainly focusing on speed control and observation points. Before entering a curve, slow down to 20-30 km/h in advance, as going too fast can easily cause you to cross the line. For a left turn, focus on the left front corner of the car's hood, keeping it close to the right line, and gradually turn the steering wheel to the left. For a right turn, do the opposite by watching the right front corner of the hood along the left line and gradually turning the steering wheel to the right. Continuously check the left and right rearview mirrors during the turn, especially paying attention to the position of the rear wheels to avoid crossing the line. When exiting the curve, don't rush to accelerate; wait until the car is completely straightened before speeding up. Different car models may have varying sight positions, so it's recommended to practice several times in a safe area to get a feel for it.

Do you need to bleed air when a car runs out of fuel?

After refueling a car that has run out of fuel, there is no need to bleed air. The vehicle's fuel system is equipped with a dedicated exhaust system. You can start the vehicle directly after refueling. Before ignition, turn the key to the "on" position, and the fuel pump will start working. Since the fuel pump is electric, if there is no fuel, the engine may not start immediately after refueling because there is air in the fuel line. If you refuel, turn the key to the "on" position, wait for a few dozen seconds, and then attempt to start the engine. Below is relevant information: If a car is running low on fuel on the highway, generally from the moment the warning light comes on until the engine stalls, the car can still travel at least 40 to 60 kilometers. On highways, there is typically a service area gas station approximately every 50 kilometers. Alternatively, you can exit at the nearest exit, where there is usually a gas station nearby. If the car stalls on the road, pull over to the shoulder, place a warning sign, and then call for roadside assistance while waiting for help.

How often should iridium-platinum spark plugs be replaced?

Iridium-platinum spark plugs should be replaced after running 80,000-100,000 kilometers. Under normal maintenance conditions, automotive spark plugs should be replaced after 40,000 to 60,000 kilometers of driving. However, this may vary depending on the brand and engine type, so it is recommended to follow the user manual. The following standards can be referenced for maintenance and replacement: platinum spark plugs should be replaced at 40,000 kilometers, ordinary nickel alloy spark plugs at 20,000 kilometers, and iridium spark plugs at 60,000-80,000 kilometers. Steps for replacing spark plugs: Open the engine hood, lift the plastic cover of the engine, and remove the high-voltage distributor wires. Mark each cylinder's position to avoid confusion. Use a spark plug socket to remove the spark plugs one by one. When removing them, check for external debris such as leaves or dust and ensure they are thoroughly cleaned. Place the new spark plug into the spark plug hole, hand-tighten it a few turns, and then use the socket to tighten it further. Reinstall the removed high-voltage distributor wires according to the firing order, and then secure the cover plate.

Is the Fista's exhaust sound loud?

The Fista's exhaust sound is not loud in normal mode. For this car, its exhaust sound is judged based on the engine's RPM. Generally, the higher the engine RPM, the louder the sound will be. Therefore, the exhaust sound is not loud in normal mode, but it is louder in sport mode. Below is an introduction to the model: The Fista LAFESTA is a new compact sedan under Hyundai, with an official guide price ranging from 119,800 to 154,800 RMB. Positioned as a compact car, it offers three powertrain options (1.4T and 1.6T high/low power) across five trim levels. The Hyundai Fista is equipped with a 1.4T and 1.6T high/low power engine. The 1.4T engine delivers a maximum power of 103kW (140PS) and a peak torque of 240N·m. The 1.6T low-power engine produces a maximum power of 140kW (190PS) and a peak torque of 265N·m, while the 1.6T high-power engine offers a maximum power of 150kW (204PS) with the same peak torque of 265N·m, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. The 1.6T high-power version achieves an official 0-100km/h acceleration time of just 7.6 seconds. For suspension, it features a front MacPherson strut independent suspension and a rear multi-link independent suspension.

Is Wheel Balancing Unnecessary for Rear Tires?

Replacing or repairing rear tires alters their mass distribution, necessitating wheel balancing. If the rear tires' mass remains unchanged, balancing is not required. Tires with altered mass distribution do need balancing. Wheel balancing refers to the process where a vehicle's wheel (comprising tire and rim as an integrated unit) is adjusted for uneven mass distribution caused by manufacturing variances. At high speeds, this imbalance manifests as wheel wobble and steering wheel vibration. Hazards of unbalanced wheels: 1. Rhythmic tire hopping during driving causes steering wheel vibration. 2. Vehicle resonance occurs within specific speed ranges. 3. Chronic imbalance leads to irregular tire wear, compromising both tire longevity and driving safety. 4. Severe cases may adversely affect suspension systems and bearings.

What Causes Clutch Vibration?

The causes of clutch vibration are: deformation of the clutch disc; damage to the clutch release cylinder; resonance caused by incomplete clutch pedal engagement. To address this, engage first gear, lightly press the accelerator, and slowly release the clutch. The shaking phenomenon when starting the car is mainly due to uneven contact surfaces between the pressure plate, driven disc friction surface, and flywheel contact surface, causing vibration when operating the clutch. Possible reasons include uneven pressure distribution in the clutch assembly, loose or broken springs, incorrect pressure positioning, leading to clutch instability. Alternatively, excessive tension in the clutch pressure springs may cause shuddering. Severe wear on the clutch spline hub or bending of the transmission input shaft can also induce clutch vibration.
