After installing an additional fuel tank on a vehicle, it is necessary to report and obtain approval from the vehicle management office. Only after approval can the vehicle pass the annual inspection. Below are the relevant details: Difference between main and auxiliary fuel tanks: The main and auxiliary fuel tanks are essentially one tank, but the fuel level is selected via a valve to remind the driver to refuel in time. Principle: When using the main fuel tank, the valve is positioned at a high level in the tank. When using the auxiliary fuel tank, the valve is positioned at a low level. For example, when using the main fuel tank, the valve is positioned 7 cm from the bottom of the tank, while when using the auxiliary fuel tank, the valve is positioned 1 cm from the bottom. Vehicles are generally equipped with a fuel gauge and a low-fuel warning light, along with an audible alarm. The principle of the fuel gauge involves a tank float and a sliding rheostat.

What are the reasons for high fuel consumption in sedans?

The reasons for high fuel consumption in sedans include: 1. Piston and piston ring damage, leading to oil burning and incomplete fuel combustion; 2. Inexperienced drivers who keep the accelerator pedal pressed without lifting, not paying attention to variable-speed driving, which inadvertently increases fuel consumption; 3. Aging machinery and malfunctioning computer-controlled fuel system; 4. Damaged fuel tank or fuel lines, causing fuel leakage; 5. Faulty oxygen sensor or partially clogged catalytic converter. Solutions: 1. Check if the tire pressure meets the standard, as under-inflated tires can increase fuel consumption; 2. Inspect the degree of tire wear, as severely worn tires often cause slipping, increasing fuel consumption; 3. Ensure the wheels rotate normally, as abnormal rotation affects speed and increases fuel consumption.

Is it serious if I drove 5 kilometers without releasing the handbrake?

There will be impacts. Below are the consequences of driving several kilometers without releasing the handbrake: Severe brake pad wear: Driving with the handbrake engaged causes significant brake wear. The most direct effects are accelerated wear of the brake discs and hardening of the brake pads due to overheating, as well as stretching of the handbrake cable. This leads to reduced braking performance. The burnt smell sometimes noticed by drivers comes from this, and in severe cases, smoke may appear from the rear of the vehicle. Tire damage: Driving with the handbrake engaged also damages the tires. If the handbrake remains engaged for too long, it can cause the rear wheels to lock up, leading to smoke from friction and potentially causing brake failure.
