Oil temperature of 100 degrees is normal, and the operating temperature of engine oil is generally between 70 degrees and 90 degrees. The following is a related introduction to automotive engine oil: Functions of engine oil: Alleviate friction and high temperatures, reduce gas leakage, prevent external pollutants, prevent contact between water, air, acidic harmful gases and parts, buffer the pressure rise at the engine cylinder port, and flush away dirt generated on the working surfaces of parts. Introduction to engine oil: Engine oil, also known as engine lubricant, serves functions such as lubrication and wear reduction, auxiliary cooling and temperature reduction, sealing and leakage prevention, rust and corrosion prevention, and shock absorption and buffering for the engine. It is hailed as the 'blood' of automobiles. Engine oil consists of two parts: base oil and additives. Base oil is the main component of lubricating oil, determining the basic properties of the lubricating oil, while additives can compensate for and improve the shortcomings of the base oil's performance, endowing it with certain new properties, making them an important component of lubricating oil.

Can an Automatic Transmission Car Be Parked Without Engaging the P Gear?

An automatic transmission car should not be parked without engaging the P gear, as it is unsafe. In all automatic transmission vehicles, when parked in P gear, a hook in the transmission locks the gear. The correct parking method for an automatic transmission car: First, press the brake and shift to neutral, then engage the handbrake, shift to P gear, and finally turn off the engine. This is the correct way to park an automatic transmission car. Engaging the handbrake first shifts the main parking force to the braking system, thereby maximizing the protection of the car's transmission. Hazards of long-term parking without engaging the P gear: Most of the parking resistance comes from the transmission. Over time, this can shorten the lifespan of the transmission lock mechanism. Parking on a slope is particularly harmful to the transmission. Moreover, when starting the car again from such a state at low speed, the car may have difficulty starting, and you might even hear some abnormal noises. These phenomena indicate that the car's transmission is gradually being damaged.

What gear should a beginner motorcyclist use when going downhill?

Beginner motorcyclists should use 1st gear when going downhill. In 1st gear, without giving throttle or pressing the clutch, the inertia force will provide auxiliary resistance, which helps control the speed. Motorcycles are two-wheeled or three-wheeled vehicles powered by gasoline engines and steered by handlebars. They are lightweight, flexible, fast, and widely used for patrols, passenger and cargo transportation, as well as sports equipment. Broadly speaking, motorcycles can be categorized into street bikes, road racing motorcycles, off-road motorcycles, cruisers, and touring bikes. A motorcycle consists of five main parts: the engine, transmission system, running gear, braking system, and electrical instrumentation equipment.

Where is the fuel tank switch located on a scooter?

The fuel tank switch on a scooter is located beneath the fuel tank, although a few models may have it mounted on the frame. Fuel tanks can be categorized into open-type and closed-type, both requiring sufficient capacity. To maintain fuel cleanliness, the tank should have a sealed cover with an air filter installed. Scooters typically feature a continuously variable transmission (CVT) with an automatic clutch, eliminating the need for gear shifting. Once started, simply twisting the throttle will set the scooter in motion, while releasing it will gradually decelerate until stopping. Additionally, scooter wheels are generally smaller than those on other motorcycles, with most transmission systems utilizing belt drives, commonly referred to as 'step-through' or 'underbone' motorcycles.

What is the reason for the brake pedal pulsating?

The reason for the brake pedal pulsating is the activation of the ABS system. The ABS system is the anti-lock braking system in a car. When driving on roads with poor traction, the ABS system is easily activated. It prevents the wheels from locking up, thereby improving driving stability and safety. The car's brake pedal is located below the steering wheel. Pressing the brake pedal causes the brake lever linkage to be pressurized and transmitted to the brake pads on the brake drum, which then clamp the brake rotor, slowing down or stopping the car. The manual brake in a car is located next to the gear shift and is connected to the brake lever. There are also common bicycle brakes, which rely on rod-shaped brakes fixed on the frame or disc-type caliper brakes to slow down.
