The function of the crankcase ventilation device is: to prevent engine oil deterioration; to prevent leakage from the crankshaft oil seal and crankcase gasket; and to prevent various oil vapors from polluting the atmosphere. Below is relevant information: 1. The reason for crankcase ventilation: Since combustible mixture gas and exhaust gas enter the crankcase, the pressure inside the crankcase will increase, causing engine oil to leak and be lost from the crankshaft oil seal, crankcase gasket, and other places. Oil vapor lost into the atmosphere will increase the engine's pollution of the atmosphere. 2. Precautions: If the crankcase ventilation system fails to work properly, it should be repaired immediately. Otherwise, excessive pressure inside the engine may occur, which can damage the engine. There is also an important component in the crankcase ventilation system, called the oil-gas separator, which is used to separate oil vapor inside the crankcase.

What causes a sudden drop in engine RPM during car acceleration?

The reason is clutch slippage. Symptoms of clutch slippage: loss of power, increased fuel consumption, and accelerated wear. Below are relevant explanations: 1. Clutch function: The clutch serves to disconnect the driving wheel's power, but during vehicle movement the driven wheel still maintains rotation, requiring the synchronizer to coordinate engagement between the driving and driven wheels. After gear engagement is completed and the clutch is released, it resumes providing RPM and power to the driving wheel. 2. Clutch location: The clutch is located within the flywheel housing between the engine and transmission, with the clutch assembly secured by screws to the rear plane of the flywheel. The output shaft of the clutch is the input shaft of the transmission.

Why Are Tires More Prone to Blowouts in Summer?

The reasons why tires are more prone to blowouts in summer are: 1. When driving under high-temperature conditions, the effect of thermal expansion and contraction makes tires more likely to deform; 2. As tires continuously generate heat during driving and dissipate it relatively slowly, the air pressure inside increases, leading to blowouts due to overly thin tire walls. Measures to prevent tire blowouts include: 1. Strictly avoid overloading, overcrowding, and speeding; 2. Regularly check tire pressure to maintain normal internal pressure; 3. Periodically rotate tires; 4. Regularly adjust wheel balance; 5. Opt for tubeless tires or radial tires whenever possible; 6. Maintain proper tire care.
