Will it hurt the car if you step on the floor gas pedal while driving? Will it have any impact if you have never stepped on the floor gas pedal before?

Some experienced drivers or car owners who like to drive with a roar like to step on the accelerator to the bottom when driving, and the pedal is like sticking to the floor. There is a special term for this called floor oil. So will the habit of stepping on the floor oil while driving harm the car? What are the consequences of never stepping on the floor oil?

Will pressing the floor gas pedal while driving damage the car?

On the contrary, flooring the oil will be good for the car because it will reduce carbon deposits in the engine.

Regarding whether floor oil will damage the car, you can refer to the national standard GB/T 19055-2003 "Automobile Engine Reliability Test Method" to get a general understanding of what standards a properly designed engine must meet.

No matter how high the speed in the red line area is, as long as the speed can be reached by flooring the oil, it is the speed that the manufacturer designed for the owner to reach. If the design speed is exceeded, the ECU of the car computer will limit the engine oil.

Moreover, when the engine is developed, reliability tests are conducted. The test conditions are generally 800 hours or 1000 hours of running at maximum power. Generally, even if the owner drives the car to the point of scrapping, it is impossible to run it with floor oil for 800 hours. Therefore, floor oil will not harm the engine, but the tires may wear more. In addition, it has no effect on the life of the engine, but it does affect the life of the driver. If the driver is inexperienced or does not have a reasonable foresight of such acceleration, it is easy to cause an accident.

What is the impact of never stepping on floor oil?

Occasionally flooring the oil is good for the engine and is more effective in cleaning carbon deposits. I personally think it is more effective than adding fuel saver to gasoline. In addition to obtaining greater power output, the speed is extremely high at the moment of roaring, easily exceeding 5000 rpm. The high-temperature combustion will burn off some of the carbon deposits. However, the more you floor the oil, the better.

The engine itself is a high temperature and high pressure working state, and floor oil is more likely to cause high temperature and high pressure, which is more severe than usual. If the floor oil is often used, the engine gasket is prone to coking and oil leakage. Some engine gaskets are very expensive, such as BMW sealing rings, which are tens of thousands.

There are also many people who have not tried flooring the gas, perhaps because the road conditions do not allow it, or because they do not pay attention to this driving style, because family cars are designed to save fuel, and a fuel-saving driving style should be gentle, such as switching to the eco-economic mode, the power becomes very weak, and it always feels slow. The fuel on the floor is sprayed in a high amount at an instant, so this model is very fuel-consuming, and generally does not need to floor the gas. One disadvantage of flooring the gas is that the speed is not easy to control and accidents are prone to occur, especially when the road conditions are bad, so be careful when flooring the gas.

What does car floor oil mean?

Flooring the gas pedal means that the driver has stepped on the accelerator pedal to the maximum travel, nothing more. Flooring the gas pedal is not the maximum power point of the car, nor is it the fastest acceleration point. It is just the process of the car maintaining full load movement. The relationship between power and torque is P = T * n / 9550. Whether it is a conventional power model, a hybrid model, or even a pure electric model, according to the universal characteristics of the engine and the torque characteristic curve of the motor, it can be judged that flooring the gas pedal is not the fastest acceleration point of the car.

When you floor the accelerator, the engine speed is the highest and the load is also the highest at this time. Based on the universal characteristics of the engine, it can be judged that the moment you floor the accelerator is the point where the engine's fuel consumption rate is the highest, which is also the point where your money is lost the fastest.

Flooring the gas pedal is a way of playing with the car, not a normal driving behavior. I hope every driver can satisfy his or her own little excitement while ensuring driving safety.

Google's self-driving cars are learning how to handle rain

Google's self-driving fleet is based primarily in California, a part of the world where it doesn't rain much. Now the company is considering equipping its vehicles for worse weather: That means adding sensors and windshield wipers.

In its latest Autonomous Vehicle Monthly report, Google lists some of the challenges posed by inclement weather, as well as some ideas on how it will develop a car that "will be able to drive rain, hail, snow or shine."
