Finding a fault in the car.

If your car does not start in the morning, you should check these three things: the battery, the fuel level and the spark plugs. It is easy to repair these faults.

If the battery is flat, you should recharge it. If this does not work, you should replace it.

If the petrol tank is empty, fill it up.

If the spark plugs are dirty, clean them, and if the gap in a spark plug is too narrow or too wide, adjust it to correct width.

If your car still does not start, the petrol pump can be broken, or the fuel pipe may be blocked. If the pump is broken, it must be repaired or replaced. If the fuel pipe is blocked, take it off and unblock it.

If there is a loud click when you turn the key, the starter motor may be jammed. If it is, try to release it by pushing the car in the second gear. If the car still does not start, the starter motor should be repaired or replaced.

Fill in the blanks with the missing words.

Here are the words you can use to fill in:

flat tank cooling

be repaired empty backwards

click replace narrow

recharge fuel forwards

faults wide fuel level
