A faulty fuel injector can cause engine misfire and may also lead to some other symptoms. Engine Vibration: When a car's fuel injector is damaged and fuel injection becomes uneven, the engine may exhibit symptoms such as operational vibration during operation. Reduced Power and Increased Fuel Consumption: As the fuel injector deteriorates, the fuel injection volume and pressure cannot be guaranteed, leading to symptoms like decreased vehicle power and increased fuel consumption. Increased Exhaust Emissions Pollution: Malfunctions in the engine's fuel injector will inevitably affect the mixing and combustion of the combustible air-fuel mixture, resulting in increased pollutant emissions from the vehicle's exhaust. Engine Misfire: If the fuel injector of a particular cylinder is severely damaged, the engine is highly likely to experience misfire, which can cause severe engine vibration.

When is the Expressway Toll-Free?

The toll-free periods are applicable during four national statutory holidays: Spring Festival, Tomb-Sweeping Day, Labor Day, and National Day, as well as the consecutive holidays determined by the State Council's General Office for these statutory holidays in the current year. The toll-free period starts at 00:00 on the first day of the holiday. Relevant information about the toll-free expressway policy during holidays is as follows: 1. Introduction: The toll-free expressway policy during holidays refers to the exemption of tolls for small passenger vehicles during major holidays. 2. Policy Impact: Affected by the macroeconomy, although tolls are only waived for small passenger vehicles with fewer than 7 seats during major holidays, due to the sluggish manufacturing economy, the demand for freight transportation in some regions has declined significantly, and toll revenue during the free period is expected to decrease year-on-year. Guojin Securities' report estimates that this measure will impact the performance of listed companies by approximately 5% to 10%.

What does it mean when the key symbol flashes several times on the Nissan Sylphy?

It indicates that the smart key's signal is very weak or undetectable. Simply replace the battery or use a new key. Relevant details are as follows: 1. Exterior: In terms of appearance, the new Sylphy largely follows the design of the overseas version. The front grille adopts Nissan's family-style V-motion design, with the headlight assembly connected to the grille, making the LED daytime running lights appear sharper. Additionally, the new front bumper enhances the car's sporty look. 2. Powertrain: In terms of power, the new Sylphy will continue with the current model's powertrain options, offering 1.6L and 1.8L naturally aspirated engines. The 1.6L engine delivers a maximum power of 126 horsepower, while the 1.8L engine produces a maximum power of 139 horsepower. For transmission, the engines will be paired with either a manual or CVT gearbox.

Why Does a Motorcycle Get Louder the More You Ride It?

Motorcycles get louder due to foreign objects or an increase in the vehicle's own faults. Below is an introduction to the reasons why a motorcycle's sound becomes increasingly louder: 1. Causes of the noise: Noise is generally produced by vibration, collision, or friction of objects. If a motorcycle's engine is working normally, the sound during operation is minimal and harmonious. However, when the engine malfunctions, abnormal noises occur. 2. Common faults causing noise in scooters: (1) Loose timing camshaft bearings. (2) Severe wear on the working surfaces of the timing cam and valve rocker arm. (3) Broken rear clutch spring. (4) Improper belt selection or clutch acceleration lag, resulting in the sound of the belt hitting the casing. (5) Severe wear of the front clutch pulley weights. (6) Wear of the electric starter clutch (the abnormal noise is more pronounced during electric starting). (7) Incorrect ignition timing, causing the sound of valves hitting the piston (commonly seen in vehicles after maintenance).

How to Determine the Tonnage of a Light Truck Rear Axle?

The method to determine the tonnage of a light truck rear axle is to check the model number on the vehicle's nameplate. Generally, the middle two digits on a truck's nameplate indicate the vehicle's gross weight, which is the combined weight of the vehicle's own weight and the permitted load capacity. For example, '09' indicates a gross weight of 9 tons. (The fourth digit represents the sequence of different vehicle models of the same tonnage from the same manufacturer.) The gross weight is the sum of the load-bearing capacity of the front and rear axles, with the front axle typically bearing about half the load of the rear axle. The rear axle mainly has two technical parameters: 1. Load capacity level; 2. Gear ratio: There is no unified format for the numbering regulations of rear axles among manufacturers, so the focus should be on these two parameters provided. The load capacity level indicates the maximum design load-bearing capacity of the rear axle, expressed in tons, such as: 6-ton level, 10-ton level, 11-ton level, etc.
