Scooter cold start difficulties are caused by the following reasons: 1. Fuel aspect: In cold weather, the temperature of gasoline drops significantly. This type of gasoline does not vaporize easily in the cold carburetor, resulting in too little gasoline in the air-fuel mixture, making the mixture too lean. This lean mixture is not only difficult to ignite but also burns slowly, making the engine hard to start. 2. Lubricating oil aspect: As the temperature drops, the viscosity of lubricating oil increases, its fluidity deteriorates, and the engine's starting resistance increases. When using the same electric or manual power to start the engine, the rotation rate of the crankshaft connecting rod mechanism decreases, and the compression force on the air-fuel mixture in the cylinder is insufficient, making it difficult to start. 3. Electrical current aspect: For motorcycles that use battery ignition, in winter, the viscosity of the electrolyte in the battery increases, and its fluidity and diffusibility deteriorate. The chemical reaction cannot proceed completely, resulting in insufficient power and affecting the start.

What does 4motion mean on a car?

4MOTION is Volkswagen's full-time four-wheel drive system. More related introductions are as follows: 1. 4motion is the trademark of Volkswagen's four-wheel drive technology. The 4motion system is also the full-time four-wheel drive system commonly used in Volkswagen models. In 1986, Volkswagen first equipped the "syncro" four-wheel drive system on the GOLF model, which is the predecessor of today's 4motion. At that time, a silicone viscous coupling was used as the limited-slip transmission device. 2. Volkswagen introduced the Swedish Haldex coupling, and since then, the four-wheel drive system using Haldex limited-slip technology has been named 4motion. This technology has become the core of Volkswagen's four-wheel drive technology due to its high degree of electronicization, compact structure, and other excellent characteristics.

What brand is Tracmax tire?

Terramax is just a tire model, specifically a model under the Sailun tire brand. As the world's first legally certified tire with a speed rating of 360km/h, it was developed by Sailun's North American subsidiary in Canada, which has launched two light truck tires for the North American market: Terramax CVR and Terramax A/T. Tire maintenance tips: 1. The service life of tires can reach five to six years, but it's essential to check tire pressure and wear condition during each maintenance session. 2. Tire pressure should be maintained between 200kPa-280kPa. It's best to set the pressure according to the manufacturer's standards. If the vehicle will be parked for an extended period, adjust the pressure to 300kPa. 3. Filling tires with nitrogen can help maintain stable pressure and also contribute to extending tire lifespan.

How to Use the Electronic Parking Brake in an Automatic Transmission Vehicle?

Simply lift the electronic parking brake button gently to engage it. Conversely, pressing the button will release it. Here is more information about the electronic parking brake: 1. With the gradual upgrade of car configurations, the electronic parking brake has basically become a standard feature. In addition to saving space and keeping up with the trend in appearance, it completely avoids issues such as the vehicle rolling due to an insufficiently engaged traditional mechanical handbrake. 2. The more advanced feature of the electronic parking brake is that when the driver fastens the seatbelt and prepares to start, stepping on the accelerator allows the vehicle to move, and the electronic parking brake is automatically released entirely, significantly reducing the operation time for starting the vehicle, especially during hill starts, where its convenience is more evident. 3. Most vehicle models still require manually pressing the button to release the electronic parking brake.

How Much Does Snow Tire Increase Fuel Consumption?

Snow tires increase fuel consumption by about 8%. Fuel consumption standard: The fuel consumption standard is an important indicator for measuring the fuel economy of a vehicle. Fuel economy is usually measured by the amount of fuel consumed by a vehicle over a specific driving cycle or the distance a vehicle can travel with a certain amount of fuel. It is commonly evaluated using the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers (liters/100 km). Definition of constant-speed fuel consumption: Constant-speed fuel consumption refers to the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers obtained from the constant-speed fuel consumption test specified by national standards for certain types of vehicles. These vehicles include M1 class, M2 class with a maximum design total mass not exceeding 3.5 tons, and N1 class compressed natural gas vehicles; as well as M1 class and N1 class vehicles with a maximum design total mass not exceeding 3.5 tons.
