What is an automobile accelerator pedal

The automobile accelerator pedal is a device used to control the engine speed up or down. When the gas pedal is pressed, the engine speed increases; when the accelerator pedal is pressed, the engine speed decreases. The gas pedal is generally arranged at the bottom of the right side of the cab and is operated by the right foot.

Operation steps:1. Step on the floor of the cab with the right heel as the fulcrum, lightly press the gas pedal with the palm of the foot, and step on or relax with the ankle extension and flexion movements.2. In addition to having to step on or release the brake pedal, the right foot should be easy to put on the accelerator pedal at other times. When operating the accelerator pedal, step on it gently and lift it slowly; sudden lifting or continuous shaking is strictly prohibited. The main point of the accelerator pedal return: keep your heel still and lift your toes.

The gears should be selected so that the engine is running at medium speed and high throttle most of the time to save fuel. Releasing the clutch should be closely coordinated with pressing the gas pedal, and the action should be agile. Before stopping or stalling, release the gas pedal and don't slam/jam on the air throttle. Easy Mistake:Instead of using your heel as a fulcrum, put your whole foot on the pedal. This can cause the soles of your feet to lose their balance due to bumps, which can cause the pedal to rise and fall. When the car is moving, if the pedal stroke has been pressed down 3/4, and the engine speed can not be increased accordingly, it should be shifted to a lower gear, and then press the gas pedal to accelerate.
