TCS stands for Traction Control System. TCS greatly enhances the stability of a car. When driving on slippery roads, a car without TCS is prone to wheel spin during acceleration. If the rear wheels spin, it can cause the car to fishtail; if the front wheels spin, the car's direction may become uncontrollable, leading to a drift to one side. Here is more information about TCS: 1. The TCS system is enabled by default on most vehicles, but the owner can turn it off based on actual conditions. When the traction control system is turned off, the system will not limit wheel spin, and the driving style should be adjusted accordingly. 2. The role of the TCS system is to ensure the car obtains optimal traction under various driving conditions, so it is best to keep it enabled unless there are special circumstances.

What to Do If Gasoline Is Accidentally Added to a Diesel Engine?

Solution for accidentally adding gasoline to a diesel engine: If the amount is small, no action is needed; if the amount is large, it should be drained and the fuel tank should be cleaned. Adding gasoline to a diesel engine can cause symptoms like poor acceleration if the amount is small, and can damage the diesel engine if the amount is large. A diesel engine is an engine that burns diesel fuel to release energy. It uses compressed air to increase the air temperature, making it exceed the auto-ignition point of diesel. Then, diesel is injected, and the diesel spray mixes with air and ignites spontaneously. Due to the high working pressure, diesel engines require related components to have high structural strength and rigidity, making them relatively heavy and large in size.
