Acceleration weakness is caused by carbon buildup on the valves, intake tract, combustion chamber, and spark plugs. There are three key points for engine maintenance: 1. Clean the air filter: The air filter is crucial for engine air intake during driving. If the air filter becomes clogged or accumulates excessive dust, it will restrict engine air intake. Additionally, large amounts of dust entering the cylinders will accelerate carbon buildup, leading to poor engine ignition, insufficient power, and naturally increased fuel consumption. 2. Remove throttle valve sludge: Sludge forms due to carbon deposits from fuel combustion exhaust at the throttle valve, as well as impurities not filtered by the air filter accumulating there. Excessive sludge creates air resistance in the intake, resulting in increased fuel consumption. 3. Clean injector carbon deposits: Since the combustion chamber is prone to carbon buildup, which can cause starting difficulties, injector carbon deposits can also lead to fuel passage blockage, distorted fuel injection, and poor atomization, naturally increasing fuel consumption.

Does Turning Off Traction Control Help in Rainy Weather?

You should turn off the traction control (OFF) function on rainy days. This is because when starting on snowy or waterlogged roads, the wheels are very prone to slipping. Under such conditions, the vehicle's computer will automatically detect wheel slippage and, to a certain extent, limit the engine's power output. Slow Down: Regardless of the road width or surface condition, always drive slowly in the rain, constantly monitor the distance between your vehicle and others, and be mentally prepared to take various emergency measures. Visibility is low in rainy weather, and the field of vision is poor. Additionally, the vehicle's emergency performance, such as braking distance, may be reduced. Therefore, it's essential to slow down in advance, leaving enough time and space to handle any situation safely. Maintain Safe Distance: Driving in the rain obstructs your vision, so it's crucial to maintain a safe distance from other vehicles. Always monitor the distance between your car and those around you, increasing the safety gap as needed.

Will Selling a Car Without Transferring Ownership Bring Any Impact?

Selling a car without transferring ownership can bring significant impacts. Impacts on the seller: If the buyer commits traffic violations, incurs fines, fails to pay fees, causes accidents, or even engages in illegal activities with the car, and the buyer cannot be located, the seller will be held accountable, possibly even bearing primary responsibility. Although the car has been sold, the ownership remains with the seller, meaning they must still participate in annual vehicle inspections, insurance processing, and other vehicle-related procedures. Impacts on the buyer: When attempting to lease, pledge, inherit, or transfer the ownership of the purchased used car, these operations cannot be processed legally since the vehicle is not officially owned by the buyer. If the seller later changes their mind, they can reclaim the car. Additionally, if authorities pursue the seller's assets, the car may still be subject to seizure.

Is it harmful to a 125cc scooter to run at 90km/h?

Running a 125cc scooter at 90km/h is harmful. Maintaining this speed for a long time can lead to increased fuel consumption, cylinder scoring, and reduced engine lifespan. Increased fuel consumption: If the fuel system of the motorcycle hasn't been inspected or cleaned for a long time during use, it will affect its speed performance to some extent. Cylinder scoring phenomenon: There are many engine faults that can cause this inability to reach higher speeds, such as insufficient cylinder pressure, clutch slippage, or changes in valve timing, all of which can produce such reactions. Impact on engine lifespan: For the engine, the combustion chamber is subjected to high temperature, high pressure, and corrosive effects of combustion gases, making it difficult to maintain the lubricating oil film. Especially during piston movement, constant contact with fresh air makes the engine cylinder liner more prone to damage.

How to Tell if the Car is Straight When Reversing in Subject 2?

In Subject 2 (Parking Test), you can determine whether the car body is straight by checking the rearview mirrors. Here are some techniques for reversing in Subject 2: 1. Learn to use the rearview mirrors and adjust direction with the steering wheel: When entering the parking space, observe whether the distance between the car body and the sides of the space is roughly equal through the rearview mirrors, and ensure the car body is parallel to the boundary lines in the mirrors. 2. Practice driving straight more often: Before officially reversing into the parking space, practice driving straight more. When driving straight, keep the car body upright, and get out to check if necessary. 3. Find good reference points: When the car body is straight, find a suitable reference point by observing surrounding objects and fix the image of the straight car body in your mind. Note that your field of vision should be broad, and try to use distant objects as references.

What are the reasons for the Haval M6's lack of power when climbing slopes?

There are several reasons for the Haval M6's lack of power when climbing slopes: Decreased combustion efficiency: The main reason why a car feels powerless when climbing a slope is that the engine does not have enough fuel during the climb, leading to decreased combustion efficiency and insufficient horsepower. Similarly, the intake system plays a crucial role. Besides fuel, the engine also requires air. If components like the air filter or throttle valve are clogged or malfunctioning, resulting in insufficient air intake, the car will also lack power when climbing slopes. Spark plug failure: Spark plugs are also a common source of problems. Issues such as excessive spark plug gap or incorrect heat value can lead to poor engine combustion, causing the car to lack power when accelerating uphill. Additionally, insufficient tire pressure can contribute to the car's lack of power when climbing slopes. It is recommended to check the tire pressure. Many of these component failures can result in the car's lack of acceleration power.
