How to Determine Whether Engine Oil Should Be Changed?

Methods to determine whether engine oil should be changed: Pull out the oil dipstick, drip the oil onto an oil test paper, and wait for the oil to saturate the paper. If the oil appears yellow and oily, it is normal. Smooth the oil drop with your hand—if the paper surface feels smooth, the oil quality is good. Conversely, if the oil appears dark brown and feels gritty with impurities, it indicates a high level of contaminants, and the oil should be changed promptly. Engine oil, also known as motor lubricant, serves multiple functions for the engine, including lubrication, friction reduction, auxiliary cooling, sealing, rust prevention, corrosion resistance, and shock absorption. It is often referred to as the "blood" of a car. Engine oil consists of two main components: base oil and additives.

What Are the Three Pedals in a Manual Transmission?

Manual transmission vehicles have three pedals: the clutch, brake, and accelerator. The functions of the clutch are: 1. Gradually increasing the driving force to ensure smooth vehicle starting; 2. Temporarily separating the engine and transmission for gear shifting; 3. Preventing overload in the drivetrain; 4. Reducing torsional vibration impacts from the engine to prolong the lifespan of transmission gears. The brake is used to reduce speed or bring the vehicle to a stop. Its working principle involves converting the kinetic energy of the moving vehicle into heat through friction between the brake pads and drums, as well as between the tires and the ground, thereby slowing down or stopping the vehicle. The accelerator is used to increase the vehicle's speed.
