crosswind xto-use of turning knob just below the power side mirror control

[willsmith]

i notice a turning knob (rounded the size of a 5-peso coin) just below the power side mirror control, located just above the left knee with directional marking clockwise and counter clockwise. for what purpose it is? how do or should i ever touch it?

sir it's for the throttle cable, nakalimutan ko na tawag pero mga old school na diesel rides meron nito. Karaniwang gamit is kapag nagpapainit ka ng makina at kailangang tapakan iyung accelerator pedal, instead na apakan mo pedal, iyung knob ang mag hohold sa level ng pedal na gusto mo.

idle up .. since your diesel engine is not equipped with IACV that automatically controls engine idle after start-up, you should manually turn that knob to raise your RPM until your engine reaches normal operating temp.. its purpose is to avoid erratic engine idling which results to excessive vibration and too much diesel fuel in the engine resulting to smoke (unburned diesel)

if your engine idles normally after start-up there is no need to turn the knob

Dad used the idle-up knob as a "cruise control" on his XUV...

pwede din gamitin yan pagtawid sa baha, alalay ka lang sa brakes and clutch

ginagamit ko din poor man's cruise control sa highway driving. medyo alalay din sa brakes saka dapat mabilis ka mag ikot pag kelangan mo mag full stop heheheh
