When the engine is cold, the intake valve clearance should be between 0.15-0.20 mm, and the exhaust valve clearance should be between 0.20-0.25 mm. Here is some relevant information: 1. Valve clearance: Valve clearance refers to the gap left to accommodate thermal expansion of valves when the engine is operating. 2. Dangers of insufficient valve clearance: If there is no gap or too small a gap between the valve and its transmission components when cold, thermal expansion during operation will cause the valve to not close properly. This leads to gas leakage during compression and power strokes, resulting in reduced engine power and potentially making the engine difficult to start. 3. Solution: To prevent this phenomenon, a certain clearance is intentionally left between valves and their transmission mechanisms during cold assembly of the engine, to compensate for thermal expansion. This gap is called valve clearance.

Why is there a delayed response when stepping on the accelerator?

Why is there a delayed response when stepping on the accelerator? It could be due to a throttle malfunction or a blockage in the intake pipe. A throttle malfunction can affect the opening and closing degree, while carbon buildup in the intake pipe directly impacts the air intake volume. Reduced air intake affects the combustion efficiency of gasoline, leading to acceleration delay. The accelerator, also known as the throttle or air valve, is a control device that regulates the engine's power (thrust). In piston-type aircraft engines, the throttle controls the carburetor's throttle opening to regulate the cylinder's filling volume, thereby determining the engine's output power. In gas turbine engines, the throttle controls the metered fuel flow of the fuel regulator, thus determining the thrust generated by the engine.

What does Corolla SCVT mean?

Corolla SCVT refers to the transmission, which inherits the characteristics of the CVT transmission while improving some of its shortcomings. The SCVT transmission is Toyota's third-generation transmission in China, and the Toyota 8-speed SCVT uses the third-generation CVT transmission. Based on the previous generation of CVT transmission, this SCVT transmission incorporates four key improvements: a dual-output oil circuit design, flexible lock-up technology, low-viscosity new CVT transmission oil, and new control logic. Taking the Corolla 2021 1.2T S-CVT Pioneer PLUS version as an example: the vehicle is manufactured by FAW Toyota, classified as a compact car, with a gasoline energy type, and equipped with a CVT continuously variable transmission (simulating 10 gears).

Where is Kunlun Tires produced?

Kunlun Tires are produced in the Midong Industrial Park in Xinjiang. The company manufactures all-steel radial tires, semi-steel radial tires, all-fiber radial tires, steel wire tires, and more. Tires are circular elastic rubber products mounted on various vehicles or machinery to roll on the ground. Typically installed on metal rims, tires support the vehicle body, absorb external shocks, ensure contact with the road surface, and maintain driving performance. Tires often operate under complex and demanding conditions, enduring various deformations, loads, forces, and extreme temperatures during use. Therefore, they must possess high load-bearing capacity, traction performance, and shock absorption. Additionally, they require high wear resistance, flexibility, and low rolling resistance with minimal heat generation.
