Gear mismatch refers to the mismatch between speed and the selected gear. Here are the detailed explanations: Gear introduction: First gear within 10 km/h, second gear between 10-20 km/h, third gear between 20-30 km/h, fourth gear between 30-40 km/h, and fifth gear can be used above 40-50 km/h. Effects of gear mismatch: Increased component wear: Prolonged mismatch can accelerate component wear and lead to premature damage to the engine and transmission; Insufficient engine power: It can easily cause the engine to stall due to insufficient power or make the engine struggle, resulting in vehicle vibration. Transmission gears: In the transmission gears, gears with smaller numbers are called low gears. The smaller the number, the greater the gear ratio and traction, and the lower the speed. Gears with larger numbers are called high gears. The larger the number, the smaller the gear ratio and traction, and the higher the speed.

How far can a 60V 20Ah lead-acid battery travel?

Generally, it can travel 50-60 kilometers. Typically, driving in low gear can cover about 70 kilometers for a single person, medium gear around 60 kilometers, and high gear 45-50 kilometers. It also depends on the local temperature conditions; the lower the temperature, the shorter the travel distance. The characteristics of the battery are as follows: High-quality materials: Uses plate-type electrodes, high-density lead paste, dual-performance gel-specific separators, and excellent gel electrolyte. Durable: Features long lifespan, large capacity, excellent vibration resistance, small self-discharge, and good low-temperature discharge performance. Strong charging acceptance and fast charging capability. Excellent resistance to electrical performance and fast charging. Maintenance-free, no need for acid or water replenishment during use. Advantage in climbing: Superior high-current discharge performance, providing significant advantages in starting and climbing.

What Causes Soft Brakes After Bleeding?

If the brakes still feel soft after bleeding, it may be due to long-overdue brake fluid replacement or leakage from the master cylinder piston. Below are the specific reasons for soft brakes after bleeding: Long-overdue brake fluid replacement: Brake fluid should normally be replaced every 2 years or 50,000 kilometers. Brake fluid has the property of absorbing moisture from the air. If not replaced in time, excessive water content inside the fluid can generate vapor, leading to air pockets in the brake lines. This affects braking performance, resulting in soft brakes. Master cylinder piston leakage: Due to prolonged use, the rubber seals inside the master cylinder piston may deteriorate, causing leakage and fluid backflow. This condition results in soft brakes and potential leakage from the wheel cylinders. Insufficient hydraulic pressure in the brake system leads to soft braking.

What Causes White Smoke and Shaking from the Engine?

Reasons for white smoke and shaking from the engine: excessively low engine temperature, water in the fuel supply system, delayed fuel injection timing, poor fuel injector atomization, etc. Excessively low engine temperature: Some diesel fuel turns into oil vapor without burning and is discharged from the exhaust pipe along with the exhaust gas, resulting in white smoke. Water in the fuel supply system: If there is water in the fuel or combustion chamber, the water is heated by the combustion heat in the cylinder and turns into steam, which is discharged from the exhaust pipe, forming white smoke. Poor fuel injector atomization: Poor atomization leads to incomplete combustion of diesel fuel, which mixes with the high-temperature exhaust gas from normally operating cylinders in the exhaust pipe, causing white smoke.

Should You Press the Brake When Starting an Automatic Transmission Car?

For an automatic transmission car, you don't need to press the brake if starting while stationary. However, if the car is about to move, pressing the brake is necessary. Here are explanations for both scenarios: 1. Stationary Start: In this situation, the car is usually in "P" (Park) gear, which provides braking force. Therefore, pressing the brake isn't required to start the car. However, from a safety perspective, pressing the brake while starting is a good habit. 2. Moving Off: When starting at a traffic light or preparing to drive, pressing the brake is necessary. This is because the car needs power to move, and most automatic transmission models have a lock mechanism when shifting from "P" to "R" (Reverse) or "N" (Neutral) gear. You must press the brake to successfully shift gears. Thus, if the car is about to move, pressing the brake first is essential.

What is the function of a motorcycle buzzer?

Motorcycles are equipped with buzzers to remind riders not to forget to turn off the turn signals. Most motorcycle turn signal buzzers are integrated with the flasher unit and cannot be removed separately. Function of turn signals: Turn signals are controlled by electronic devices, but they still use sound to simulate the relay. When a motor vehicle is turning, the turn signals are activated to indicate that they are flashing, serving as important indicators to alert surrounding vehicles and pedestrians. Types of turn signals: They can mainly be divided into three types: resistance wire type, capacitor type, and electronic type. The resistance wire type can further be divided into hot wire type (electrothermal) and vane type (spring-loaded), while the electronic type can be subdivided into hybrid type (with contact relays and electronic components) and fully electronic type (without relays).
