What are the reasons for high engine RPM but no increase in speed?
1 Answers
The reasons for high engine RPM but no increase in speed are: 1. The transmission is not engaged in the corresponding gear (for example, the gearshift lever is in the 5th gear position, but the transmission gears are only suitable for the 2nd gear position); 2. The clutch is installed between the engine flywheel and the transmission input shaft. When the clutch pedal is fully released, the power generated by the engine is transmitted to the transmission with nearly 100% efficiency after passing through the clutch. Clutch slippage will lead to slow acceleration when stepping on the gas; 3. The engine tachometer shows falsely high readings, or the speed displayed on the speedometer is lower than the actual speed, which can create a false impression. Appropriate troubleshooting and repairs should be conducted based on the specific situation.
