The Kuga uses 92 octane fuel. Gasoline grades are differentiated by octane ratings, with higher-octane fuel offering better anti-knock properties, reducing the likelihood of engine knock and improving engine performance. The Kuga measures 4525mm in length, 1838mm in width, and 1685mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2690mm, a fuel tank capacity of 60 liters, and a curb weight of 1592kg. In terms of power, the Kuga is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 182PS, a maximum power output of 134kW, and a peak torque of 245Nm, paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission.

What type of engine oil is best for the Verna?

Verna is best suited for 5W20 and 5W30 engine oils, or mineral oil can also be used. How to choose a lubricant brand: If you prioritize the long-lasting performance of the oil, Mobil oil is a good choice; if you focus on the cleaning ability of the oil, Shell oil is recommended; if you value the toughness of the oil film, Castrol is suitable. Here are some relevant details: 1. The Verna's engine is more compatible with 5W20 engine oil. 2. If the environment is harsh, you frequently drive in congested areas, and the vehicle is older, 5W30 engine oil is more suitable. 3. The Verna's engine rarely uses 5W40 engine oil because its higher viscosity increases engine resistance, leading to higher fuel consumption.

Brake First or Clutch First?

Usually, you should press the brake first and then the clutch, which is the most basic braking method for drivers. In addition, there are the following three braking methods: 1. Parking on a slope: Press the brake first, then the clutch. When the clutch is pressed, the car is effectively in neutral, and without the engine's resistance, the car may roll backward; 2. Emergency stop or deceleration at high speed: Press the brake first, then the clutch. Because the higher the car's speed, the greater its inertia. If you press the clutch first, the car's inertia increases, so you must press the brake first; 3. Stopping at a red light: Press the clutch first, then the brake. Because the lower the car's speed, the greater the friction resistance between the tires and the ground. If you press the brake first, the engine is more likely to stall.

How Long Does a Fuel Pump Last?

Under normal usage, it lasts about 5 years. The lifespan mainly depends on mileage and fuel quality. Generally, replacement isn't necessary unless it affects engine performance. Causes of fuel pump failure include: 1. Gasoline serves to cool and lubricate the fuel pump. Delayed refueling after the fuel warning light comes on reduces cooling and lubrication, leading to damage. 2. Insufficient fuel pressure: When the fuel level warning light illuminates, there's approximately 7 liters of fuel left in the tank. Low fuel levels prevent adequate cooling and lubrication of the fuel pump motor, causing overheating or even stoppage. Frequent operation under these conditions can lead to premature failure. 3. Long overdue replacement of the fuel filter: Severe clogging in the fuel supply system forces the fuel pump to work harder, and prolonged high-load operation can cause damage. 4. Poor fuel quality: Contaminants or debris in the fuel tank are drawn in through the pump's bottom filter screen and sent to the engine. While larger particles are filtered out, smaller ones enter the pump motor, accelerating wear and causing early failure.

Is it normal to hear a hissing sound when opening the fuel tank cap?

It is normal to hear a hissing sound when opening the fuel tank cap because, after unscrewing the cap, some gas enters the tank, causing a pressure difference between the inside and outside, which results in the hissing sound. Below are the relevant explanations: 1. There is a significant amount of gasoline vapor inside the tank, leading to relatively high pressure, which is released the moment the cap is opened. Although the pressure inside the tank is high, it does not become infinitely large mainly because, while driving, the gasoline vapor pushes open the carbon canister valve at the top, enters the carbon canister through the pipeline, and is absorbed by it. 2. Once the gasoline vapor reaches a certain concentration, it stops evaporating further, naturally reducing the pressure. However, if you hear a thumping sound from the fuel tank while driving, it might be due to a blocked vent valve on the fuel tank cap, which can be resolved by clearing it. It is important to note that if the fuel pump nozzle frequently shuts off prematurely or if the pressure is excessively high, it is advisable to have it checked at a 4S shop, as it could be caused by damage to the carbon canister, its pipelines, or the carbon canister solenoid valve.
