Fuel additives and three-way catalytic converter cleaners should not be used together. Additional information: The functions of automotive fuel additives are as follows: The cleaning and activating factors in fuel additives can remove harmful substances such as gum deposits in fuel and engine carbon buildup. After five consecutive uses of fuel additives, carbon deposits on the exhaust pipe are significantly reduced, including in the filter, exhaust valve, and fuel system. The nano-components in fuel additives encapsulate gum deposits, creating gaseous "micro-explosions" in the combustion chamber under high temperatures, which promote secondary atomization of fuel and ensure complete combustion, thereby enhancing engine power. Over 90% of vehicles experience a noticeable improvement in power after the first use of fuel additives.

Is It Normal for a Motorcycle's Auxiliary Water Tank to Have No Water?

It is not normal for a motorcycle's auxiliary water tank to have no water. Reasons why it is abnormal: When the water tank is empty, the cooling effect of the engine is significantly reduced, which can easily lead to overheating and subsequent engine damage. It is necessary to add water promptly before continuing to ride. The auxiliary water tank is essentially a supplement to the main water tank. The main water tank generates a certain amount of pressure due to temperature fluctuations, and the auxiliary water tank helps regulate this pressure. The main functions of a car's auxiliary water tank are: When the engine temperature rises, the liquid expands, causing some of the coolant to flow into the auxiliary water tank through the radiator cap. When the temperature drops and the cooling system pressure becomes negative, the system draws the coolant from the auxiliary water tank back into the cooling system via the radiator cap. Additionally, the auxiliary water tank has corresponding markings indicating the liquid level, allowing for a clear visual representation of the current water level in the tank.

Is the Windshield Covered Under Warranty?

The manufacturer only warrants it for three months. If you have glass insurance, you can contact the insurance company for replacement. If you believe it's a glass quality issue, you can seek warranty coverage from the manufacturer. Windshield self-cracking: If the starting point of the crack shows no signs of external force, such as scratches, small chips, gaps, or inward-spreading lines, and the crack is a single line extending inward rather than radiating outward, this condition can initially be judged as a glass quality issue. Precautions after windshield replacement: Avoid bumpy roads while driving to prevent the windshield from shifting due to vibrations. Try to start and stop slowly, avoiding sudden braking or acceleration. Do not wash the car within three days after windshield replacement. To protect against rain, park the car in an underground garage as much as possible to prevent leaks of wind or water. Do not apply window film within one week after windshield replacement, as it may cause the glass to become unclear. Do not discard parking cards carelessly, especially avoid placing them between the front windshield and the dashboard, as they can easily slip into gaps.

What Causes Loss of Power When Accelerating Due to Water in the Engine?

Engine water ingress leading to power loss during acceleration can be attributed to the following reasons: Contamination of Various System Fluids: If water enters the engine, the spark plugs should be removed, and the fuel supply and ignition systems should be manually disconnected. Then, use the starter motor to crank the engine, allowing the water inside to be expelled. Additionally, inspect the fluid conditions in all vehicle systems. If foaming or contamination is observed, replace the fluids promptly. Corrosion of Related Components: After inspection, use compressed air to remove moisture from electrical connection points in the engine bay to prevent corrosion caused by water accumulation. Key areas to focus on include the fuse box, sensor connectors, and areas where water tends to pool in the body. After cleaning, conduct a road test to ensure the engine operates without abnormal noises. If noticeable driving noises occur, inspect the engine bearings and rotating components. Failure of Chassis Components: Chassis components are prone to lubricant degradation during water exposure, particularly in systems involving steering and drivetrain. For instance, the maintenance manual for the Land Cruiser recommends applying grease to chassis components after water exposure. During the road test, listen carefully for any abnormal noises from the chassis or perform a disassembly inspection if necessary.

What Causes Intermittent Spark in Motorcycle High Voltage?

Motorcycle high voltage sometimes has spark and sometimes doesn't, the reasons are as follows: Trigger coil resistance: When there's no spark in motorcycle high voltage, first use a multimeter to measure whether the resistance values of the ignition coil and trigger coil on the stator are normal (for DC ignition stators which don't have ignition coils, only the trigger coil needs to be measured). Also check whether the high voltage coil is functioning properly. Short circuit in kill wire: For AC ignition systems, check if there's any short circuit in the kill wire. Try replacing with an identical model ignition unit for testing. For DC ignition systems, inspect whether the ignition unit power wire has electricity. Open or short circuit faults: Check for any open or short circuit faults in the wiring between the stator, ignition unit, high voltage coil, ignition switch (main switch), and kill switch.

Where is the oil filter screen located on the Honda 150?

The location of the oil filter screen is as follows: Inside the right engine case: One is inside the right engine case, above the oil drain plug. You need to remove the right cover of the engine to see it. This filter screen is plate-shaped, resembling a small screen window. Under the left engine cover: Another is under the left engine cover. If there is a large round screw cap facing left, the oil filter screen is inside it. This filter screen is made of mesh and looks somewhat like a cup-shaped filter.
