Why won't my car move?

Here are explanations for why a car won't move: 1. Reason one: It may be related to or interact with the throttle valve and poor low-temperature fluidity of engine oil. 2. Reason two: Not cleaning the throttle valve for over 7,500 kilometers can lead to excessive dirt accumulation. Carbon buildup in the intake tract, fuel injectors, and intake valves can cause malfunctions. The uneven fuel quality and congested urban road conditions contribute to carbon deposit formation. During cold starts, the fuel sprayed by the injectors is largely absorbed by these deposits, resulting in an overly lean air-fuel mixture that makes starting difficult. 3. Reason three: Not cleaning the fuel system for over 40,000 kilometers can cause excessive dirt inside the fuel pump and fuel lines. 4. Reason four: Not replacing the battery for over 3 years can lead to insufficient voltage during cold starts.

Why does brake failure occur when brake pads overheat?

High temperatures can cause vaporization of brake fluid. Below is relevant information about brake pads: 1. Classification of brake pads: Asbestos brake pads (mostly phased out), semi-metallic brake pads, low-metallic brake pads, NAO formula brake pads, ceramic brake pads, NAO ceramic brake pads. 2. Ceramic brake pads vs traditional brake pads: In traditional brake pads, metal is the primary material generating friction, providing strong braking force but with significant wear and prone to noise. After installing ceramic brake pads, abnormal squealing (clicking sounds) won't occur during normal driving. Since ceramic brake pads contain no metal components, they avoid the metallic screeching noise caused by friction between traditional metal brake pads and their counterparts (i.e., brake pads and rotors). 3. Stable friction coefficient: Ordinary brake pads use immature friction materials, and excessively high friction coefficients can lead to loss of directional control during braking, pad burning, rotor scratching, and other safety hazards. Even when brake rotor temperatures reach 650°C, ceramic brake pads maintain a friction coefficient between 0.45-0.55, ensuring excellent braking performance.

How much gasoline does a 3KW generator consume per hour?

3KW gasoline generators consume 365 grams of fuel per kilowatt-hour. Below is relevant information about automotive generators: 1. Introduction: The automotive generator serves as the primary power source for vehicles. Its function is to supply power to all electrical equipment while simultaneously charging the battery when the engine is running normally. Based on the three-phase stator winding of a conventional alternator, additional winding turns and lead-out terminals are added, along with an extra set of three-phase bridge rectifiers. At low speeds, the output is delivered through the series connection of the original and additional windings, while at higher speeds, only the original three-phase winding provides output. 2. Classification: Automotive generators can be divided into DC generators and AC generators.

Why does the car lack power when accelerating after braking?

It could be due to oil leakage from the master cylinder or wheel cylinder. Here is some relevant information about automotive braking systems: 1. Introduction to braking: Braking, also known as deceleration, refers to the action of stopping or reducing the speed of moving locomotives, vehicles, other transportation tools, or machinery. The general principle of braking is to fix a wheel or disc on the high-speed shaft of the machine and install corresponding brake shoes, bands, or discs on the machine base to generate braking torque under external force. The braking device, also known as a decelerator, is a mechanical braking device that can slow down the vehicle speed. 2. Classification of brakes: Drum brakes (including their advantages and disadvantages), disc brakes, etc.

Is It Possible to Switch from Automatic to Manual Transmission After Getting Used to It?

Yes, but it requires some time to familiarize yourself with the operations. Below is a brief introduction to manual transmission: 1. Transmission Device: Manual Transmission, also known as manual gearbox, is a type of transmission device and the most basic form of automotive transmission. 2. Function and Characteristics: Its role is to alter the gear ratio, also known as the gear ratio. Based on the principle of leverage, it uses the largest diameter gear of the low-speed gear with the longest radius to amplify the engine torque, assisting the vehicle in starting to move forward. With the engine running, the neutral gear can be used to interrupt power transmission, which is beneficial for engine starting, warming up, idling, and facilitates gear shifting, coasting, or temporary stops.
