When transferring ownership of a used car, the original license plate number cannot be retained. Here are the relevant details: 1. Article 19, Paragraph 2: If the vehicle owner's residence is within the jurisdiction of the vehicle management office, the office shall confirm the vehicle, verify the vehicle identification number imprint, review submitted documents and certificates, retrieve the license plate and registration certificate, determine a new license plate number, record the transfer details in the vehicle registration certificate, and reissue the license plate, registration certificate, and inspection mark within one day of accepting the application. 2. Used car license plates: Cannot be transferred with the vehicle. While the car is private property that can be transferred, the license plate is state-owned property and does not belong to any individual or group. Owners only have the right to use the license plate, not ownership rights, so it cannot be transferred with the vehicle.

How to Identify the Firing Order of Cylinders 1-2-3-4?

The firing order for cylinders 1-2-3-4 is either 1-2-4-3 or 1-3-4-2. Below is an introduction to engine cylinders: 1. Introduction: The cylinder is the cavity in the engine block where the piston is placed. 2. Function: It serves as the track for the piston's movement, where fuel combustion and expansion occur. Additionally, the cylinder wall helps dissipate some of the residual heat from combustion, maintaining the engine at an optimal operating temperature. 3. Types: Cylinders can be classified as integral or single-cast. Single-cast cylinders are further divided into dry and wet types. When the cylinder and engine block are cast as one unit, it is called an integral cylinder. When cast separately, the single-cast cylinder is referred to as a cylinder liner. A cylinder liner that comes into direct contact with coolant is called a wet liner, while one that does not is called a dry liner. To ensure a tight seal between the cylinder and piston and to minimize friction losses during piston movement, the inner wall of the cylinder must have high machining precision and accurate dimensional shape.

Will Driving Through Water Without Stalling Damage the Car?

Driving through water without stalling does not damage the car as long as the engine can start. However, there is still a possibility of water ingress or moisture after driving through water. It is advisable to inspect the engine compartment, engine air intake, wheels, brake discs, and other areas for any foreign objects to avoid affecting driving safety. Precautions for driving through water: 1. Avoid blindly driving through water: Before driving through water, stop to observe the water conditions, including depth, flow speed, direction, and the condition of the waterbed (muddy or rocky). Assess whether the vehicle can pass based on its wading capability. 2. Avoid wheel slippage or skidding: When driving through water, the buoyancy of water reduces the vehicle's weight, making it lighter and decreasing the adhesion coefficient between the wheels and the waterbed. This makes the wheels prone to slipping, spinning, or lateral deviation. If the waterbed is uneven and the water flow is strong, especially with a high vehicle center of gravity, there is a risk of the vehicle tipping over sideways. 3. Avoid water ingress into electrical components and engine openings: Before driving through water, check the water depth. Typically, the wading depth should not exceed the bumper. If the water reaches the vehicle's maximum wading depth, electrical components may get wet. In such cases, avoid attempting to drive through and find an alternative route instead of taking unnecessary risks.
