The causes of intake flow system performance failure: 1. Inaccurate resistance value of the potentiometer wiper, poor contact between the potentiometer sliding arm and carbon film resistor, insufficient tension of the return spring, poor contact of the fuel pump switch point. 2. Incorrect frequency signal transmission due to electronic component circuit failure. 3. Contamination of hot wire or hot film, damage to hot wire or hot film, poor performance of thermistor. 4. Air leakage in the intake system or damage to the air flow meter, requiring inspection of the pipeline between the air meter and throttle valve for air leakage. Additional information: 1. Common causes of air flow meter failure: short circuit, open circuit, or abnormal air intake signal, all of which can lead to abnormal fuel injection, causing the mixture to be too rich or too lean, resulting in poor engine operation or reduced power. 2. Damage to the air flow sensor: generally caused by excessively dirty intake air, leading to dust accumulation that affects its detection accuracy and lifespan.

What does automatic D gear mean?

Automatic D gear is the gear used when an automatic transmission car moves forward. The D gear is generally located in the middle and rear position of the gear shift console, behind the N gear, aiming to automatically select the appropriate gear when the car is moving forward. When the gear shift lever is placed in the D gear, the hydraulic system control device will automatically connect the corresponding forward gear oil circuit based on the throttle opening signal and vehicle speed signal. The planetary gear transmission system, dual-clutch transmission system, or continuously variable transmission belt system will obtain the corresponding transmission ratio under the control of the actuator. As the output shaft speed and engine speed change, the system will automatically shift up or down to the appropriate gear among the forward gears, achieving the automatic transmission function.

Where is the cabin air filter of Kaiyi C3?

Kaiyi C3 does not come with a cabin air filter, but it can be installed by yourself. The Kaiyi C3 adopts a similar design to the Chery E2 sedan, with dimensions of 4250mm in length, 1726mm in width, and 1510mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2510mm, positioning it as a compact car. The vehicle is equipped with a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine across the lineup, which delivers a maximum power of 80kW and a maximum torque of 140Nm. This engine features multi-point fuel injection technology and uses an aluminum cylinder head with a cast iron cylinder block. It is paired with either a 5-speed manual transmission or a 4AT transmission.

How to Remove Valves?

Method for removing valves: 1. Use a specialized valve spring compressor to compress the valve spring; 2. Remove or install the valve lock pieces or lock pins, and slowly release the valve spring. The removed valves must be clearly marked and arranged in order to avoid damaging the fit between the valves, valve seats, and valve guides. The valve lock pieces or pins are very small, so care should be taken not to lose them. The function of the valves is to specifically input air into the engine and expel the exhaust gases after combustion. Structurally, the engine is divided into intake valves and exhaust valves. The intake valve's role is to draw air into the engine to mix with fuel for combustion, while the exhaust valve's role is to expel the burned exhaust gases and dissipate heat.

What to do when the OBD light is on?

Methods to handle when the OBD light is on: A computer diagnostic tool is required for diagnosis, and it is recommended to go to a professional repair shop for inspection and fault repair. The OBD device monitors multiple systems and components, including the engine, catalytic converter, particulate trap, oxygen sensor, emission control system, fuel system, EGR, etc. Generally, it is a bit difficult to find the source of the fault to clear the OBD indicator light. A simple method is to read the fault codes. OBD connects various emission-related component information to the electronic control unit (ECU). The ECU has the function of detecting and analyzing emission-related faults. When an emission fault occurs, the ECU records the fault information and related codes. Therefore, reading the fault codes can quickly and accurately determine the nature and location of the fault.

Can an Automatic Transmission Car Stall?

Whether an automatic transmission car can stall has nothing to do with whether it is automatic or manual. Stalling occurs due to faults in the engine's fuel system or electrical system. Sudden stalling is caused by electrical issues, while gradual stalling is due to fuel system problems. Since modern cars use power-assisted systems, you can rest assured that there will generally be steering control after stalling, and the steering won't lock up. However, you should slow down gradually, as stopping abruptly can be very dangerous. Nowadays, it's best to avoid using neutral gear in cars. Stalling in an automatic transmission car doesn't necessarily mean there's an engine fault. If it stalls due to lack of electricity, check whether the alternator is generating power and whether the wiring is burned out or open. If it stalls due to lack of fuel, check whether the fuel pump is not working or whether the fuel line is clogged.
