The reason for the Buick Regal 2.5 stalling during cold starts is excessive carbon buildup in the throttle body or leaks in the intake manifold or various valves. There are three key points for engine maintenance: Clean the air filter: The air filter is related to the engine's air intake during driving. If the air filter is clogged or accumulates too much dust, it will cause poor engine air intake. Additionally, a large amount of dust entering the cylinders will accelerate carbon buildup, leading to poor engine ignition, insufficient power, and naturally increased fuel consumption. Remove throttle body sludge: Sludge is formed due to carbon deposits from fuel combustion exhaust at the throttle body, as well as impurities not filtered by the air filter accumulating there. Excessive sludge can cause air resistance in the intake, leading to increased fuel consumption. Clean injector carbon deposits: Since the combustion chamber is prone to carbon buildup, which can cause difficulty starting, carbon deposits on the injectors can also clog fuel passages, distort fuel injection, and result in poor atomization, naturally increasing fuel consumption.

What Happens When the Front Wheels Lock Up?

When the front wheels lock up, the driver loses control over the vehicle's direction. Below is relevant information about wheel lock-up: 1. Meaning of wheel lock-up: Wheel lock-up refers to the phenomenon where, during braking, the wheels stop rotating and slide on the road surface due to the braking torque. This causes the wheels to lose their ability to resist lateral forces, making the vehicle prone to skidding or losing control. 2. Causes of wheel lock-up: (1) Prolonged parking: If the parking brake is applied when there is water in the brake drum after washing the car or rain, the wheels may lock up over time. Using the vehicle's power to move the tires can help. (2) Stuck or non-returning brake master cylinder cup: The solution is to clean the entire brake system and replace the brake master cylinder cup. (3) Non-returning brake caliper: This can be fixed by sanding with sandpaper and applying grease. If the caliper itself is faulty, it may need to be replaced. (4) Frozen brake pads due to ice: Melt the ice with hot water or gently tap the brake drum with a blunt object like a hammer. (5) Overheating from prolonged braking, causing the brake pads to fail to separate: Depending on the situation, the brake pads may need to be sanded or replaced.
