First, open the car door, sit in the driver's seat, adjust the seat properly, and fasten the seat belt. Turn on the turn signal to alert vehicles and pedestrians behind. Insert the key to start the ignition, press the clutch pedal fully with your left foot, shift into first gear with your right hand, and place your right foot on the accelerator pedal. Gently lift the clutch pedal with your left foot until it reaches the semi-engaged state. When the car slightly vibrates, gently press the accelerator with your right foot while releasing the handbrake. Fully release the clutch pedal, and the car will start moving slowly. Once the car is on the road, maintain a straight line, control the steering wheel properly, and keep your eyes on the road ahead.

How often should the fuel injector and throttle be cleaned?

The fuel injector and throttle should be cleaned approximately every 20,000 kilometers. Below is an introduction to fuel injector cleaning: 1. Generally, the fuel injector should be cleaned every 2 years or 60,000 kilometers. If not cleaned regularly, it may lead to increased fuel consumption and reduced power output. Therefore, regular cleaning is recommended. 2. If the fuel injector is not cleaned for a long time, it may develop leaks or become clogged. If clogged, the sprayed gasoline cannot atomize properly, causing the car's exhaust pipe to emit black smoke. 3. This can result in a misfire in one of the engine cylinders, leading to noticeable engine shaking and symptoms such as poor acceleration.

How many liters of oil can be added to the Sagitar 1.4T?

The recommended engine oil capacity is approximately 4L. After adding oil, check the oil dipstick scale for the exact level. Below are relevant details: 1. This engine is turbocharged, so it requires full synthetic oil due to the high temperatures and rotational speeds during turbocharger operation, which demand superior lubrication. 2. After adding oil, start the vehicle and check the level 3 minutes after turning off the engine. This is because the oil filter needs replacement during an oil change, and the new filter initially contains no oil. Starting the vehicle allows oil to flow into the filter. Waiting 3 minutes ensures oil returns to the oil pan for an accurate measurement. 3. Never check the oil level on a slope, as vehicle tilt causes uneven oil distribution in the oil pan, leading to inaccurate readings.

What is Backfire?

Backfire refers to the phenomenon where the mixture of air and fuel gas forms a negative pressure when the flow velocity from the gas nozzle is lower than the flame propagation speed, causing the flame to retreat into the burner for combustion. The following is an introduction to backfire: 1. To prevent backfire, it is necessary to overcome factors that can increase the flame propagation speed or reduce the ejection velocity of the mixture. 2. Engine backfire means that the fuel mixture ignites outside the combustion chamber before entering it. 3. This situation is generally caused by incorrect engine ignition timing, poor engine operating conditions leading to excessively high cylinder temperatures, or poor valve sealing.
