Yes, idling for long periods of time can potentially damage the engine. It can lead to excessive wear on parts and carbon buildup. Also, it may cause the engine to operate inefficiently leading to spark plug fouling and excessive fuel consumption. At idle, the engine is not operating at its peak temperature, which means fuel combustion is not complete. This can lead to soot deposits on cylinder walls, often called engine slob, which can stick to spark plugs and other engine components, causing the vehicle to get poorer gas mileage and losing engine power. It can also lead to the degradation of engine oil and exhaust systems. However, short periods of idling, such as at traffic lights, are generally not harmful.
Motorcycle tires typically last between 3,000 to 15,000 miles, but their lifespan can significantly vary based on factors such as tire type, riding style, bike weight, maintenance, and road conditions. Sport tires, offering high grip, may wear out faster, around 3,000 miles, due to their softer compound, while touring tires, designed for longer durability and constructed with harder compounds, can last towards the upper range of 15,000 miles. Riders should perform regular checks for tread depth, signs of aging, or damage to ensure safety. Inflation levels also greatly impact tire lifespan; consistently maintaining the correct pressure, as specified by the motorcycle and tire manufacturers, helps in maximizing tire longevity. Besides, incorporating habits like smooth acceleration, braking, and avoiding overloading further extends the life of motorcycle tires.
The correct amount of air in car tyres, measured in pounds per square inch (PSI), varies depending on the vehicle and tyre specifications. Typically, passenger cars recommend between 32 to 35 PSI. It’s essential to follow the vehicle manufacturer’s guidance, found in the owner’s manual or on a sticker inside the driver's door. Proper inflation optimizes tyre performance, fuel efficiency, and safety. Over- or under-inflation can lead to uneven wear, reduced traction, and increased risk of tyre failure. Check tyre pressure monthly and before long trips, using a reliable tyre gauge. Adjustments should be made when tyres are "cold" for an accurate reading, as heat from driving can increase pressure.
