Insufficient fuel pressure will cause the vehicle to accelerate weakly or even shake and stall. At the same time, if the fuel pressure cannot be maintained, it will result in the engine failing to start on the first attempt. The fuel pump requires a power source to operate, and the lower camshaft is driven by the engine crankshaft gear. The main reasons for insufficient gasoline pump pressure are: 1. Reason one: The oil seal at the rear end of the fuel pump drive gear shaft is worn or the pipeline joint is not tight, allowing air to enter the pipeline; the fuel tank is low on fuel, and the filter is dirty. 2. Reason two: The end face bearing of the fuel pump gear is worn or stuck, causing excessive axial clearance in the fuel pump gear. 3. Reason three: The needle bearing is damaged, causing abnormal meshing of the fuel pump gear, and the inner cavity of the fuel pump housing is scratched.

How many kilometers can a Haval Big Dog run on a full tank of gas?

Haval Big Dog can run 318 kilometers on a full tank of gas. Solutions for high fuel consumption: 1. Clean engine carbon deposits: Excessive engine carbon buildup is a major cause, primarily due to the use of unsuitable fuel. It is recommended to add a certain amount of fuel cleaner when refueling. If the effect is not obvious, it indicates significant carbon deposits in the engine. In this case, the car must be taken to a 4S store for professional cleaning of the engine carbon deposits by technicians. 2. Check the oxygen sensor: As an internal control unit of the car, the oxygen sensor mainly monitors the fuel-air ratio in the engine. Once it is damaged, it will cause an imbalance in the fuel-air ratio, leading to a sudden increase in fuel consumption. After the oxygen sensor is damaged, the exhaust pipe will emit darker-colored exhaust gases while driving. At this point, the oxygen sensor should be replaced.

What is Jack Ma's new energy car called?

Jack Ma's new energy car is called the Roewe RX5. Here is some related information: 1. Features: The Roewe RX5 is equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), which is controlled by ABS and constantly monitors the speed of each wheel. During normal driving conditions without pressing the brake pedal, if the ABS detects that the rotation speed of one or more wheels differs from the others, the system will calculate the tire pressure changes based on the speed difference. When the change exceeds the preset range, the alarm function will be triggered, and the TPMS warning light (yellow) on the instrument panel will stay on. 2. Exterior: According to the official preview images, the Roewe RX5 adopts the "Rhythm Design" language, featuring matrix LED headlights composed of 24 LED light sources. The body lines are stylish and dynamic, with a dual-waistline design on the side. The roof is equipped with a luggage rack, and the overall lines are rhythmic and full of tension.

What is the difference between automatic two-wheel drive and automatic four-wheel drive?

Here are the differences between automatic two-wheel drive and automatic four-wheel drive: 1. Driving method: Two-wheel drive means only two wheels are the driving wheels, connected to the vehicle's power system; four-wheel drive refers to the vehicle maintaining a four-wheel drive form throughout the entire driving process. 2. Number of differentials: The differential in a two-wheel drive vehicle enables the left and right (or front and rear) driving wheels to rotate at different speeds; in four-wheel drive, to drive all four wheels, they must be connected together. If the four wheels are mechanically connected, a center differential is required to adjust the speed difference between the front and rear wheels.

Can a Flood-Damaged Car Drive on Highways After Repair?

Flood-damaged cars can be driven on highways after repair, but it is not recommended. Here is relevant information: 1. Hazards: For flood-damaged cars, rainwater has caused severe damage, and even after repair, the car cannot fully return to its original condition. There are still risks of unknown faults inside the vehicle. Water entering the engine can cause damage, leading to unexpected stalling during driving; transmission failure can cause the vehicle to slip or shake, resulting in accidents; electrical circuit faults can lead to short circuits and fires. 2. Precautions: If a water-damaged vehicle has been repaired, it can be used. However, during the repair process, it is essential to ensure all necessary repairs are completed. All water-damaged parts should be either replaced or repaired based on their specific conditions. Electrical system connectors and wiring should be thoroughly dried and rust-proofed. Check all vehicle fluids for water contamination—if any moisture is present, they must be replaced.
