Will the car move when in first gear without pressing the accelerator? The answer is yes. Here are the relevant explanations: 1. Reason: As long as the engine is running, pressing or not pressing the accelerator only affects the amount of power output, not whether power is output or not. This is the result of idling forward. Not pressing the accelerator does not mean no gasoline enters the engine, otherwise the engine would stall. Therefore, the engine still has power and the car will move forward. Only when in neutral gear will the car stop moving forward. 2. In gear situation: Gently releasing the clutch will transfer the engine's power output to the transmission and drive wheels, causing the vehicle to move. The power will be less than when pressing the accelerator, so it is easy for the engine to stall due to the vehicle's static resistance. If you can release the clutch gently without stalling the engine, the vehicle can obtain forward momentum.

What does it mean when 4lo flashes and the engine light is on simultaneously?

4lo flashing and the engine light being on simultaneously indicates a fault in the engine. Here are the relevant details: 1. Engine misfire: A misfire in the engine leads to excessive exhaust temperature. 2. Individual cylinder issue: An individual cylinder in the engine stops working. 3. Air-fuel mixture problem: The engine's air-fuel mixture is too rich, causing poor combustion. This requires decoding to read the fault code and analyze the cause based on the fault code. The issue might be related to the transfer case's electronic control system. The specific problem should be analyzed according to the fault code, followed by detailed repairs. For the electronic control system, blind replacement should be avoided; a thorough inspection is necessary.

What is the left and right distance for ramp parking?

Ramp parking requires maintaining a distance of within 30 centimeters on both the left and right sides. Upon hearing the instruction: Turn on the right turn signal, steer the wheel appropriately to the right, and drive the vehicle straight along the right side of the road slowly, paying attention to the distance between the body and the right sideline. Approaching the target: When the vehicle is about 10 meters away from the parking pole, slowly, accurately, and steadily approach the positioning target. Determining the target: Use a point on the parking pole and the windshield (or hood) as a reference. When a point on the windshield aligns with the parking pole in a straight line, meaning the vehicle's bumper aligns with the parking pole line, stop immediately.

Which is More Important, the Engine or the Transmission?

The transmission is more important. The following are the introductions to the engine and transmission: 1. Introduction to the engine: The engine was first developed in the UK. It is a machine that converts kinetic energy into mechanical energy, including internal combustion engines, external combustion engines, electric motors, etc. For example, an internal combustion engine typically converts chemical energy into mechanical energy. The engine is applicable not only as a power generation device but also as the entire machine of the power unit. 2. Introduction to the transmission: The transmission refers to the vehicle's gearbox, which is divided into manual and automatic types. A manual transmission mainly consists of gears and shafts, achieving speed and torque changes through different gear combinations. On the other hand, an automatic transmission (AT) is composed of a torque converter, planetary gears, a hydraulic torque variation system, and a hydraulic control system. It achieves speed and torque changes through hydraulic transmission and gear combinations.
