Gasoline and engine oil cannot be mixed for use. Here is the relevant information: 1. Reason: Although both diesel engine oil and gasoline engine oil are blended from base oils and additives (including detergents, dispersants, antioxidants, anti-wear agents, anti-corrosion agents, etc.), there are some differences in the requirements for gasoline engine oil and diesel engine oil due to the structural and operational differences between diesel and gasoline engines. 2. Gasoline selection: Higher compression ratios result in better power performance, higher thermal efficiency, and corresponding improvements in vehicle acceleration and top speed. However, the compression ratio of a gasoline engine cannot be too high due to limitations in cylinder material performance and gasoline combustion knock. Simply put, vehicles with high compression ratios should use higher-octane fuel.

What does DHT hybrid technology mean?

DHT hybrid technology is a set of oil-electric hybrid and plug-in hybrid systems that can simultaneously ensure vehicle performance and fuel economy. Vehicle inspection before departure: Before setting off each day, conduct a comprehensive inspection of the vehicle, including checking for oil or water leaks; measuring tire pressure to ensure it is appropriate; inspecting the condition of the engine oil; checking if the spare tire is intact, etc. Be cautious when wading: If encountering waterlogged roads, be aware of the water depth and the condition of the roadbed to determine if it exceeds the vehicle's passability. When the water depth exceeds half the height of the car's tires, it is not advisable to risk wading. Follow traffic rules: Avoid racing with other vehicles, drive safely in accordance with traffic regulations, and yield to pedestrians. Do not follow too closely; maintain an appropriate distance by following at the right rear corner of the vehicle in front. When overtaking, pass from the left side of the vehicle in front; avoid overtaking from the right side or between two parallel vehicles.

Is Shell HX7 Plus a Fully Synthetic Engine Oil?

Shell HX7 Plus is a fully synthetic engine oil. Below are the methods for selecting engine oil and precautions for adding engine oil: Methods for selecting engine oil: Naturally aspirated engines have relatively general requirements for oil quality and can use mineral oil or semi-synthetic oil. If the owner has a higher budget, fully synthetic oil can be used. Compared to naturally aspirated engines, turbocharged engines have a more compact structure and operate in harsher conditions, requiring higher-performance oil with better fluidity. Fully synthetic oil is recommended. Precautions for adding engine oil: Engine oil with a grade of 5W-40 semi-synthetic can be used. When changing the oil, the oil filter should also be replaced. The oil level should generally be maintained between the minimum and maximum marks on the dipstick. Try not to let it fall below the middle mark, as a low oil level will reduce lubrication effectiveness. It is acceptable to have the level slightly above the middle, but never exceed the upper limit on the dipstick. Doing so will create unnecessary resistance to the crankshaft's rotation, affecting power output and increasing fuel consumption.
