When coasting in neutral, the engine power output is completely disconnected from the transmission. To re-engage power, both the clutch and transmission must be operated together. When coasting with the gear engaged, the engine power output is partially disconnected, with the degree of disconnection controlled by the clutch engagement level. Below are detailed explanations of coasting in neutral and coasting with clutch engaged in gear: 1. Coasting in neutral: Coasting in neutral must be performed under conditions of safety and normal vehicle technical status, and engine-off coasting is not permitted. Especially when descending steep or long slopes, neither engine-off coasting nor coasting in neutral is allowed. 2. Coasting with clutch engaged in gear: When the vehicle is coasting with the gear engaged and the foot is off the accelerator pedal, the engine speed will quickly drop to idle speed. The throttle position sensor detects this signal and transmits it to the computer, which then controls the fuel injection pulse width according to the designed idle conditions to maintain the engine at idle speed.

What is the reason for shaking during acceleration but not when releasing the throttle?

The reason for shaking during acceleration but not when releasing the throttle is: During rapid acceleration, due to a certain angle between the half-shaft axial direction and the inner CV joint axial direction, the force point continuously changes along the axial direction during the rotation of the CV joint. The force generated by this change pushes the vehicle body alternately to the left and right, resulting in the shaking phenomenon. The hazards of car shaking during acceleration include: 1. Damaging the car's spark plugs, causing poor ignition; 2. Increasing carbon buildup on the fuel injectors; 3. Leading to clogging of the throttle and intake passages; 4. Accelerating the aging process of engine components; 5. Damaging the clutch pressure plate; 6. Increasing the load on the engine.

Can expired engine oil be used?

Expired engine oil cannot be used. The chemical composition of expired oil may have changed, which can affect the engine after being added. The functions of engine oil are: 1. To separate the surfaces of relatively sliding parts, thereby reducing wear; 2. To carry heat back to the oil tank and then dissipate it into the air, helping the radiator cool the engine; 3. To circulate carbon deposits, sludge, and worn metal particles from engine parts back to the oil tank, flushing away dirt generated on the working surfaces of parts through the flow of the lubricating oil. Signs that indicate the need for an oil change include: 1. Checking the oil viscosity—if there is no viscosity, the oil needs to be changed; 2. The oil color turns black; 3. Excessive black particles, metal shavings, or carbon deposits in the oil; 4. The oil has an unusual smell.

What is the cross-sectional shape of piston rings?

Piston rings have the following cross-sectional shapes: 1. By overall cross-sectional structure: rectangular, trapezoidal, and wedge-shaped; 2. By outer surface shape: cylindrical, conical, micro-conical, barrel-shaped, and asymmetric barrel-shaped; 3. By inner notch style: upper inner step, upper inner chamfer, lower inner step, lower inner chamfer; 4. By twist type: positive twist and negative twist. Main functions of piston rings: 1. Sealing: Piston rings maintain sealing between the piston and cylinder wall, minimizing gas leakage; 2. Heat conduction: They distribute high heat generated by combustion to the cylinder wall, cooling the piston; 3. Oil control: They scrape oil adhering to the cylinder wall and maintain normal oil consumption; 4. Support: Piston rings move up and down in the cylinder, preventing direct contact between the piston and cylinder, providing support.
