Why is the EFI motorcycle idle unstable?

The reasons for unstable idle speed in EFI motorcycles are as follows: 1. Throttle carbon buildup blocking the air passage: Carbon buildup on the throttle can affect its opening degree and the intake air volume, causing the engine speed to fluctuate between high and low when starting the motorcycle cold, resulting in instability accompanied by shaking. If the throttle is too dirty, it needs to be cleaned. Generally, cleaning can resolve the idle instability issue. 2. Low fuel pressure or intake manifold leakage: For example, clogged fuel injectors or fuel lines, insufficient fuel pump pressure, or faulty fuel pressure regulators. This leads to poor atomization, an abnormal air-fuel mixture ratio, incomplete combustion, and unstable idle speed. If there is an intake manifold leak, it can affect the accuracy of the intake pressure sensor's feedback data, causing the ECU to inaccurately control the intake air volume, resulting in an abnormal air-fuel mixture and unstable engine idle speed.

How to Remove the ETC Device from the Car?

Methods to remove the ETC device from the car: 1. Use a hot air blower to heat the part where the device contacts the glass; 2. After the adhesive melts, use a scraper to remove it. After removal, clean off the old adhesive and reattach with new 3M adhesive. When removing the ETC device, be careful to prevent the small button from popping out, as this could result in the loss of the owner's information. The ETC (Electronic Toll Collection) system is an automatic toll collection system for highways or bridges. It uses a dedicated short-range communication between the onboard electronic tag installed on the vehicle's windshield and the microwave antenna in the ETC lane at the toll station. By leveraging computer networking technology and backend bank settlement processing, it enables vehicles to pass through highway or bridge toll stations without stopping to pay the toll.

What is the shelf life of car tires?

Generally, the recommended service life is 3-5 years, and replacement should be based on the actual wear condition of the tires within this period. The shelf life of tires is typically only 3 months or 5,000 kilometers, while the warranty period provided by tire manufacturers is usually 3 years. Additional information: 1. Timely tire replacement: Due to tire aging, it is recommended to replace tires every 5 years. Since usage environments vary, tire replacement should primarily consider wear condition, followed by service life. If a tire is severely worn, it needs to be replaced even after just one year of use. Conversely, tires with minimal wear but in service for over 5 years must also be replaced to avoid the risk of blowouts, which significantly threatens driving safety. 2. Equip a portable car air pump: Carrying a portable car air pump can effectively extend tire lifespan. The powerful and quiet T800 car air pump from the brand Fengjinba features an anodized aluminum alloy cylinder with excellent heat dissipation. Its inflation speed is faster than typical dual-cylinder pumps, taking only one minute to inflate a 195/70R tire. It comes with online insurance for safety and reliability, along with a multifunctional pressure relief air hose set. A portable car air pump allows for regular pressure testing, inflation, and pressure relief.
