Automobile clutch belongs to the transmission system of the basic chassis of the car. The function of the clutch is to connect or disconnect the engine and the gearbox, and the clutch is installed between the engine and the gearbox. Only manual transmission cars have clutches: automatic transmission cars do not have clutches because they achieve automatic gear shifting, only brakes and accelerators. When the car is driving, if the clutch is pressed, the speed will become faster because the transmission device of the car is disconnected from the wheels, and the engine cannot control the speed, so the speed will be faster. The role of the clutch: The clutch plays the role of separation and closure. When the clutch is pressed, the transmission device of the engine will be separated from the wheels. When the clutch is released, the transmission device of the engine will be connected to the wheels. Because the clutch is very sensitive, beginners often stall when driving a manual transmission car, which is due to poor control of the accelerator and clutch. When starting the car, appropriately stepping on the accelerator can help the engine overcome static friction, allowing the car to start smoothly.

With over 20 years in the auto repair shop, I can tell you the clutch is absolutely the heart of a car's transmission system. Simply put, the clutch acts like a transfer station—connecting the engine's power source on one end and linking to the gearbox on the other. It helps you disconnect and reconnect power during gear shifts; otherwise, you'd hear grinding noises. If the clutch slips, the engine revs endlessly without translating to speed, wasting fuel in the process. Worn clutch plates can cause severe vibrations in the entire drivetrain, potentially damaging the gearbox over time. I've seen many drivers ruin their clutches even in new cars—my advice is to inspect it every 10,000 km, don't wait until you smell burning. Bottom line: it's the critical component for smooth starts and gear shifts, never underestimate it.

What Type of Engine Oil Can Reduce Noise?

Each car engine's internal mechanical components have different designed manufacturing clearances. Using engine oil with the appropriate viscosity as required can effectively reduce noise. Below is a partial introduction to the functions of engine oil: 1. Lubrication and Wear Reduction: There is rapid relative sliding between the piston and cylinder, as well as between the main shaft and bearing shells. To prevent excessive wear on parts, an oil film must be established between the two sliding surfaces. A sufficiently thick oil film separates the surfaces of the relatively sliding parts, thereby reducing wear. 2. Shock Absorption and Cushioning: When the pressure at the engine cylinder port rises sharply, it suddenly increases 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.

How to Assemble the Belt?

The method for assembling the belt is as follows: 1. Position the crankshaft at the top dead center (TDC) position and fix the camshaft at the TDC position; 2. Replace the camshaft pulley fixing bolt and tighten it; 3. Install the tensioner so that its lug fits into the casting hole of the cylinder head, then tighten the tensioner fixing bolt; 4. Install the toothed belt in sequence on the crankshaft toothed pulley, tensioner, exhaust camshaft pulley, intake camshaft pulley, and intermediate guide pulley; 5. Install the front crankshaft cover. The belt is a crucial component of the engine's valve timing system, and its functions include: 1. Ensuring accurate intake and exhaust timing; 2. Synchronizing the engine's ignition with the movement of the cylinders; 3. Ensuring smooth power output from the engine.

Is the tire specification indicated on the vehicle license?

The items marked on the vehicle license include the license plate number, vehicle type, owner, address, usage nature, brand model, vehicle identification code, engine number, registration date, and issuance date. The tire size is not indicated. Methods to check tire specifications: The international standard tire code represents the section height and aspect ratio in millimeters as a percentage, followed by the tire type code, rim diameter (in inches), load index (allowable load-bearing mass code), and allowable speed code. For example, 175/70R1477H: 175 indicates the tire width is 175 mm, 70 means the aspect ratio of the tire section is 70% (i.e., the section height is 70% of the width), the rim diameter is 14 inches, the load index is 77, and the allowable speed is H-grade. Precautions for replacing car tires: When selecting tires, the specifications should match the previous tires and must be the same as the other tire on the same axle, including speed rating, load index, tread pattern, brand, size, etc., to ensure safe driving. The valve stem should also be replaced because, after changing the tire, the aging cycles of the new tire and the valve stem differ. During the new tire's lifespan, the valve stem may develop issues, which are not easily noticeable. Therefore, it is advisable to replace the valve stem when changing tires. Installation direction and inflation: If using the original factory tire, follow the manufacturer's installation requirements. For non-original tires, the side with the production date usually faces outward. For directional tires, align the arrow on the wheel with the direction of the car's forward movement. During inflation, fill the tire to the maximum allowable pressure and then reduce it to the manufacturer's specified standard pressure.

Can drivers wear sandals while driving?

Sandals are allowed, but flip-flops are prohibited. The "Road Traffic Management Regulations" clearly stipulate that motor vehicle drivers are not permitted to drive while wearing flip-flops. In the event of an accident, if one driver is wearing flip-flops, even if that driver is not at fault for the entire incident, the accident liability will be borne by the other party, and the driver wearing flip-flops will still face penalties from traffic police for driving in flip-flops. If both parties are deemed responsible based on the accident circumstances, the driver wearing flip-flops will not only bear accident liability but also face additional penalties. Below are some potential hazards of wearing sandals while driving: 1. Delayed braking: In emergency situations requiring quick braking, wearing sandals may lead to delayed braking response. 2. Distracted driving: Wearing sandals may cause drivers to relax and become distracted, significantly increasing the likelihood of traffic accidents.

How Does a Car Wiper Work?

The car wiper assembly consists of components such as an electric motor, reducer, four-bar linkage, wiper arm spindle, and wiper blade assembly. When the driver presses the wiper switch, the motor starts. The motor's rotational speed is then transmitted through a worm gear mechanism to increase torque and drive the rocker arm. The rocker arm moves the four-bar linkage, which in turn causes the shaft mounted on the front bulkhead to swing left and right. Finally, the shaft drives the wiper blades to sweep across the windshield. Below are relevant details: 1. The car's combination switch lever is equipped with a wiper control knob, featuring three positions: low speed, high speed, and intermittent. The top of the lever is a washer button switch. Pressing the switch releases washer fluid, which works with the wiper to clean the windshield. The washer system consists of a reservoir, water pump, delivery hose, and spray nozzles. 2. Wiper blades come in two structures: traditional frame-type wipers (with metal brackets) and frameless wipers (without metal brackets).

Is a Tire Blowout at 60 km/h Dangerous?

A tire blowout at 60 km/h does pose some danger, but since 60 km/h is not a very high speed, as long as you remain calm when the tire blows out, maintain control of the steering wheel, and gradually slow the car to a stop, the risk can be managed. Generally, the safe speed for a tire blowout is below 60 km/h, as high-speed blowouts are the most dangerous. Therefore, it's important to pay attention to your speed while driving. If a blowout occurs at high speed, avoid panicking and handle the situation calmly. Additional relevant information is as follows: 1. Since tires are wear-prone components, and the sidewall is the weakest part of the tire, impacts can damage the internal steel wires in the sidewall, potentially causing bulges during driving. Once a bulge appears, continuing to drive increases the risk of a blowout. After a blowout, the tire deflates and folds together. If driving continues, the tire body bears the vehicle's weight, leading to further damage. 2. For safety reasons, you should not continue driving after a blowout, and driving 10 km is especially inadvisable. Prolonged driving after a blowout not only damages the tire but may also harm the wheel rim, resulting in greater losses. After a blowout, it's difficult to maintain the vehicle's balance and properly distribute braking force, which is extremely hazardous. 3. If a tire blows out, firmly grip the steering wheel to control the direction. Once the vehicle stabilizes, gradually brake and move to a safe area. After stopping, turn on the hazard lights, place a warning triangle behind the car to alert other drivers, and ensure all passengers exit the vehicle and move to a safe location.
