When reversing, turning the steering wheel to the left will make the rear of the car move left, and turning it to the right will make the rear move right. Here are some methods to prevent the car from veering off course while reversing: 1. Find a reference point: You can observe the parallel relationship between the car body and the lane lines in the rearview mirror, or maintain a certain distance from the lane lines while reversing to ensure the car moves in a straight line. 2. Don't grip the steering wheel too tightly: While driving, the vehicle has a "self-aligning torque." At a certain speed, if the vehicle's steering parameters (such as camber and toe-in) are accurate, it can automatically move straight. You only need to hold the steering wheel lightly with both hands. 3. Use the reversing camera: Most vehicles today are equipped with reversing radar and a reversing camera. You can use the reversing camera to assist in reversing, which reduces the difficulty of determining the direction while reversing.

How much engine oil should be added to the Besturn B70?

Besturn B70 requires four liters of engine oil. Method for checking the engine oil level in Besturn B70: Reinsert the cleaned oil dipstick back into its place, ensuring it is fully inserted, then pull it out again. The oil adhering to the very end of the dipstick can now be used to check the level. Observe the oil stuck on the dipstick; if the oil level is between the MIN and MAX marks, this is the most ideal position, indicating that the engine has just the right amount of oil. Functions of engine oil: Lubrication: There is rapid relative sliding between the piston and cylinder, as well as between the main shaft and bearing shells. To prevent excessive wear of parts, an oil film needs to be established between the two sliding surfaces. Auxiliary cooling: When the engine is running, the oil carries heat back to the oil tank and dissipates it into the air, assisting the radiator in cooling the engine. The actual cooling is done by the water outside the engine casing. Sealing and leakage prevention: The oil can form a seal between the piston rings and the piston, reducing gas leakage and preventing external contaminants from entering. Shock absorption: When the pressure at the engine cylinder port rises sharply, suddenly increasing the load on the piston, piston rings, connecting rod, and crankshaft bearings, this load is transmitted and lubricated through the bearings, cushioning the impact load.
