The shelf life of wiper blades is not fixed, usually around one year. When the wipers show the following conditions, they should be replaced promptly. The specific situations are as follows: 1. Damage symptoms on the wiper blades: Visually check for cracks, rust, deformation, attachments, discoloration, etc. 2. Streaks on the windshield: During the use of wiper blades, if there are thin streaks left on the windshield, making it difficult to see outside, you can first clean the edge of the wiper. If the symptom persists, replacement is needed. 3. Wiper blades making harsh noises: If the wiper blades produce noise or jump and cannot rotate smoothly, it may be due to wax on the glass, wear of the rubber strip, damage to the arm and bracket, or aging and deformation of the rubber strip. First, clean the windshield. If the symptom persists, replacement is required. 4. Spotted water marks left after wiping: This is caused by rubber deformation or irregular wear, where the rubber fails to contact the glass surface, indicating that the wiper bracket is deformed and needs replacement.

What Causes a Motorcycle to Stall When the Clutch is Pulled?

The reasons why a motorcycle stalls when the clutch is pulled include: excessively low idle speed, a dirty carburetor leading to poor fuel flow, or insufficient clutch clearance. Solutions: 1. Adjust the clutch clearance; 2. Appropriately increase the idle speed (for four-stroke engines, generally adjust to around 1000 RPM); 3. Inspect the fuel system and clean the carburetor. Functions of the clutch: 1. Ensuring smooth vehicle startup is the primary function of the clutch. After the engine starts and before the vehicle moves, the rider first depresses the clutch pedal to disengage the clutch, separating the engine from the transmission system. Then, the gear is engaged, and the clutch pedal is gradually released to smoothly engage the clutch; 2. Achieving smooth gear shifting. Gear shifting in a manual transmission typically involves moving gears or other shifting mechanisms to disengage the current gear pair and engage another gear pair; 3. Preventing transmission system overload. The clutch helps limit the torque the transmission system bears, ensuring safety.

What are the effects of sun exposure on cars?

Cars experiencing difficulty starting after prolonged sun exposure is caused by a malfunction in the carbon canister solenoid valve. Prolonged exposure can also easily lead to spontaneous combustion. With the arrival of high summer temperatures, drivers are advised not to leave items such as lighters, perfumes, electronic devices, or reading glasses in their cars. These items can ignite nearby flammable materials or combust/explode when exposed to high temperatures. Placing items like perfumes, air fresheners, or canned products in the car is risky. Perfumes, cans, and air fresheners are highly flammable and explosive, with a significant probability of detonation. Lighters should never be left in the car during summer, as the likelihood of them exploding is very high. If an explosion occurs, the resulting flames can quickly ignite the aforementioned flammable and explosive materials, potentially leading to car fires or even spontaneous combustion. Prolonged sun exposure also affects the car's gloss, accelerates tire aging, and increases the generation of harmful substances inside the vehicle.
