    I have a 97 Kia Sportage 4x4 with cable throttle. The throttle body has a "cam" system that opens the throttle body slowly for most of the pedal throw, and then all at once towards WOT. Somehow, over 25 years ago, an upcoming Korean car brand thought about fine throttle control for their first 4wd vehicle.

    His mechanic added balancing beads to his motorcycle tire, when buddy went to air down. A single bead stuck itself into the valve core from the inside of the valve and kept it open resulting in dumping all the air out.
    Spare valve cores, stems, and caps all around.

    Talking about manual gear boxes another tip, leave gear five and six for highway use, they are both overdrive with your fourth being a 1:1 ratio. They (5th and 6th) are both weak gears in drive operation in your gearbox and not designed for heavy towing or off road 4x4 usage. They will work ofcourse in these conditions but the result with be detrimental to the overdrive gears themselves. Got that from the gearbox experts in Melbourne 360 Gearboxes and diffs in Bayswater.

  • @That-Guy-79
    @That-Guy-79 2 роки тому +4

    Another thing about driving a vehicle that hasn't been modified or maybe has open diffs is driving with a foot partially on the brake to control wheel speed. The tire with the least amount of traction will spin easier. Using the brakes a wee bit will help stop that particular wheel from spinning (ie. Lost traction) and help divert power to the other wheel with more grip. I've not heard anybody discuss this technique much. Newer vehicles like Range rovers use the computer to "aid" in traction similarly.

      Yeah like the other replies sort of said, choose your gear (if you're going slowly then usually 1st or 2nd low) and keep your foot off the clutch. The clutch won't help you to be more capable and if you rely on the clutch to control your speed you'll only succeed in ruining your clutch.

Try to think about the possibilities, and consider what kind of protection you have. I guess that was my 2 cents summarized.

  • @donaldfuller5058
    @donaldfuller5058 10 місяців тому

    About the water crossing you should have the vent tubes of your transmission, transfer case and axles extended to your breather box. Because it not the water is going to flow past your seals. What happens is those parts get cooled off by the water and the air contacts then when those parts are underwater they suck in water. If you don’t want to relocate them to the air box or you think it will be too much work that is your call.

    About the valve the air doesn’t go around it but though it. So the damage will happen at the bottom seal not the red seal. The red seal seals the core to the stem. Now if you hold the core by it sides and push the stem of the core in you will see the very small and delicate seal that would be destroyed by dirt.

    Hi Ronny,
    If I engage the hill descent control on my auto PX Ranger I can take my foot off the accelerator when descending (and climbing) taking out that rough/jerky ride you had in tip 1. It works a treat.
    Additionally, the faster/slower cruise control buttons work when the hill descent control is turned on, allowing me to give it incremental speed up or slow down commands depending on the terrain. It's really useful.
    I didn't know about this until I did a 4wd drive course. My instructor pointed it out. Worth the cost of the course alone. The instructor said the tech came from Land Rover when Ford owned Land Rover, so Land Rovers have the same functionality.

      Your Ranger probably has this also.
      Electronic Air Suspension for an off road / 4WD vehicle, debut on the Range Rover in 1992.
      Land Rover have always been at the forefront of new technology in 4WD vehicles.

    Sorry my friend, the red part in the valve core is to seal the outer part of the valve core to the inner valve stem. When you push the little stem in the middle, the bottom part of the inner valve core opens allowing air into the tire.. that is where you may get mud or crap in it so it doesn't seal when you release the air chuck..hope this helps you a bit..

    Another great tip.
    Once u get off bitumen and onto off road tracks, move your drivers seat slightly forward, and higher.
    U then have much better visibility of the road surface ahead, and front end of your vehicle.
    In most 4WD videos, u c drivers pulling themselves up higher and forward, via tight grip of steering wheel,
    And out of their seat, so that they can see the road that’s down in front of their vehicle.
    They are straining upper body forward to get a better view of terrain in front of vehicle.
    When u do this, u r not supported by the car seat…
    U can’t steer easily, when u have pulled your body weight higher, via tight grip and pulling yourself up via the steering wheel…

      This is the same for autocross as well which actually has fairly similar vehicle mechanics as off-roading.

    I always do this. I thought about this for a while when i knew i was parking on the side of a mountain then waking up and going climbing again. Let my tacoma run for like 10 mins and great to have a gauge reader! Once i see certain temps I know my truck is ready!

    In addition to having a valve core wrench and spare valve cores, I like to keep one metal tire valve cap with a built on core wrench on one of my tires on my trucks. I usually keep it on the driver side front tire.

      I do that too, I'm always amazed that thieves seem to notice that. Do they make locks for those?

    I've literally had a flat tyre due to a tiny tiny stick getting caught and snapping off and holding the valve pin in letting the air out slowly when off road in the bush due to not having a valve cap.

    Great tips, but I like to add one. Be sure there is not some hungry crock or some other nasty things in the water before you dip your toe in it. Best have a spotter with some kind of hardware to have your back and your life covered.

    Some very good advice here Ronny. I have been using the foot against the kick panel forever in vehicles which don't have cruise control. It helps with fuel economy on the highway & red7ces wear & tear on the driveline too.
    I used to drive trucks so, using the gears in an automatic vehicle is second nature to me, one benefit is that it reduces brake wear in hilly country, even on the highway.
    I also find lower gears handy for controlling my speed in School zones.
    Thanks again for the advice. I think the tips can have a huge number of benefits for less experienced drivers.

    Electronic was designed for people who never learned to drive how you were supposed to learn to drive.
