Car engines should not exceed a normal operating temperature of 105 degrees Celsius. The normal operating temperature range for an engine is between 85-105 degrees Celsius, referring to the internal temperature of the engine. Below 85 degrees, gasoline atomization is poor, lubricating oil flow is inadequate, the engine is prone to wear, and performance is suboptimal. Exceeding 105 degrees can cause the engine to overheat. Intake temperature at full throttle: Generally, under maximum load conditions (full throttle), the intake temperature of a car engine ranges between 0 to 80 degrees Celsius. Intake temperature of turbocharged engines in summer: For turbocharged engines, summer conditions can result in intake temperatures reaching 80 degrees Celsius. During the compression stroke, this temperature can rise to 500-600 degrees Celsius. Local temperatures during compression: Heat is released to the cylinder walls during compression. After ignition, local peak temperatures can reach 2000 degrees Celsius or higher. The average exhaust temperature typically ranges between 800 to 1000 degrees Celsius.

How to Operate the Brake Pedal After Driving Through Water?

After driving through water, you should drive at a low speed and intermittently lightly press the brake pedal. The purpose is to use the friction between the brake pads and discs to expel water. The heat from the brakes helps remove moisture from the brake pads and discs, ensuring that braking effectiveness can be quickly restored. When passing through waterlogged sections, always use a low gear to slow down and proceed cautiously to avoid splashing water entering the engine compartment or intake, which could cause the engine to stall.

How to Deal with Clutch Not Disengaging?

Check the vehicle's clutch pedal and adjust if the free travel is excessive. Inspect whether the fluid reservoir is insufficient or if there is air in the pipelines, and perform necessary bleeding. If the release levers are too low or not on the same plane, make adjustments. Check if the driven plate is warped, deformed, or has loose rivets, and whether the driven plate's axial movement is obstructed.

What does VSC mean in cars?

VSC in cars refers to the Vehicle Stability Control system, an active safety system developed by Toyota Motor Corporation. VSC can monitor the driver's control actions, road conditions, and vehicle motion status in real-time, and continuously sends instructions to the engine and braking system. It can intervene in the driver's actions but cannot regulate the engine. The VSC system can actively adjust the engine throttle to control engine speed and modulate the driving force and braking force for each wheel, thereby correcting oversteer and understeer situations. When the driver makes improper maneuvers or encounters abnormal road conditions, the VSC system will alert the driver with a warning light.

How to Troubleshoot Fuel System Failures?

Fuel system troubleshooting methods are: 1. Check fuel pressure to determine if it is normal, inspecting both idle and acceleration conditions to assess fuel pump functionality; 2. Unplug fuel injector connectors for diagnosis - if engine vibration significantly increases upon disconnection, the injector is functioning properly, whereas no engine response indicates injector malfunction. The fuel system's primary function is to supply the engine with a precise quantity of clean, well-atomized gasoline according to operational requirements, enabling proper air-fuel mixture formation. Additionally, the fuel system must store sufficient gasoline reserves to ensure adequate vehicle driving range.
