Vehicle stalling and failing to start can be caused by obstructed fuel flow, a frozen exhaust pipe, a dead battery, etc. Here are the specific details: Obstructed fuel flow: This situation mostly occurs in winter when low temperatures cause water and impurities to mix together. In such cases, the vehicle's fuel lines can become blocked, resulting in the car failing to start. Frozen exhaust pipe: When a vehicle's exhaust pipe is frozen, it can cause issues with the exhaust system, preventing the car from starting normally. Simply removing the ice from the exhaust pipe can resolve the problem. Dead battery: A vehicle's battery can die if the trunk is not properly closed, causing the trunk light to remain on. Over time, this will drain the battery, making it impossible to start the car.

Can the fuel be siphoned from a Volkswagen Bora's fuel tank?

It is possible to siphon fuel from a Volkswagen Bora's fuel tank, but it is very difficult. Most modern cars have anti-theft screens or spiral designs between the fuel filler neck and the fuel tank, making it nearly impossible to siphon fuel from the fuel filler neck. Here are the main challenges: 1. Twisted fuel filler pipe: After the fuel nozzle is inserted into the filler neck, the gasoline flows through the filler pipe into the fuel tank. Due to the distance between the fuel tank and the filler neck and the complex structure of the car's chassis, the fuel pipe is rarely straight and often has bends. If the siphoning tube is too stiff, it cannot turn, and if it is too soft, it tends to curl. 2. Fuel tank structure: Since many cars have the fuel pipe connected to the side of the tank, even if you manage to insert a stiff tube into the tank with great effort, it will likely run parallel to the fuel surface and fail to reach the fuel, making siphoning impossible.

What is the speed limit at intersections without traffic lights?

The speed limit at intersections without traffic lights should not exceed 40 kilometers per hour. Below is an introduction about speed limits: 1. Introduction: The formulation of speed limit standards is not solely based on the number of lanes, but is specifically assessed according to factors such as road level, traffic volume, road width, and the presence of median barriers. 2. Classification: The speed limit for first-class highways can be set between 60-100 depending on the specific situation; for second-class highways, it is 40-80. Therefore, setting the speed limit at 60 is based on policy considerations. 3. Details: Some cars have their maximum speed limited for safety reasons. For example, high-end sedans and sports cars from German brands such as Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and Audi are all limited to a top speed of 250 km/h. If the limit were removed, there would still be some potential, so their top speed figures do not truly reflect the quality of their power performance. This potential is also reflected in their mid-range acceleration capabilities.
