What Causes the Baojun 730 to Pop Out of 2nd Gear?
1 Answers
Gear popping refers to the transmission automatically shifting from a certain gear back to neutral while the car is in motion. Mechanical Misalignment: The gear linkage mechanism is misaligned and not fully engaged, which can be resolved through adjustment. Mechanical Wear: Wear in the reverse gear locking mechanism inside the transmission prevents effective locking of the reverse gear. Thrust-Induced Gear Popping: Long-term wear on the meshing teeth of the inertia lock ring or the synchronizer cone ring and the inner meshing teeth of the sliding sleeve forms a tapered shape, generating axial thrust on the meshing teeth. When this thrust exceeds the locking force of the gear spring, gear popping occurs. Gear Spring Lock: The locking force of the gear spring weakens or breaks, or the self-locking steel ball dislodges or gets damaged. Severe Wear: The gear shift fork and gear shift sleeve are severely worn, or the shift fork is deformed. Improper Adjustment: Improper adjustment of the gear shift mechanism in the operating lever results in incomplete gear engagement, leaving the meshing teeth in a semi-engaged state. Solutions: Adjust the force properly or replace the synchronizer.
