If the vehicle speed is high, you should press the brake first and then the clutch; if the speed is slow, you can press the clutch first and then the brake. Below is relevant information about brakes and clutches: 1. Definition and principle: The brake of a motor vehicle is also called the braking system. The principle of braking is to fix a wheel or disc on the high-speed shaft of the machine and install a corresponding band or disc on the machine, which, under external force, generates a braking torque. 2. Clutch explanation: The clutch of a motor vehicle is located inside the flywheel housing between the engine and the transmission. The clutch assembly is fixed to the rear plane of the flywheel with screws, and the output of the clutch is the input shaft of the transmission.

What are the causes of cylinder head gasket wear?

There are several causes of cylinder head gasket wear: 1. Elongation or loosening of cylinder head bolts and nuts; 2. Deformation of the mating surfaces between the cylinder head and engine block. If these two surfaces are deformed, the cylinder head gasket cannot be evenly compressed, leading to gas leakage and subsequent gasket burning; 3. Dirty mating surfaces during installation, incorrect tightening sequence of cylinder head bolts and nuts, insufficient or uneven torque. Methods to prevent cylinder head gasket wear include: 1. Strictly inspect the flatness of both mating surfaces (cylinder head and engine block) before installation; 2. Check whether the quality of the cylinder head gasket meets standards; 3. During installation, tighten bolts and nuts evenly according to requirements and achieve the specified torque.
