Gasoline can be used for waterproofing. The English name for gasoline is 'gasoline' or 'gas' (American English), also known as 'petrol' (British English). It is a volatile, flammable liquid hydrocarbon mixture derived from the distillation or cracking of petroleum, primarily used as fuel for spark-ignited internal combustion engines. It mainly consists of organic compounds obtained from crude oil distillation and various additives. The octane rating of gasoline measures the anti-knock properties of a specific gasoline mixture (which can cause knocking and reduce the efficiency of reciprocating engines). Depending on the octane rating, gasoline can be classified into several grades. Other chemicals are often added to gasoline to improve chemical stability and other performance characteristics, control corrosiveness, and maintain the cleanliness of the fuel system.

What is the introduction of lubricating oil viscosity?

The viscosity grade of engine oil is closely related to the vehicle model and local temperature. Below is an introduction to its connection with vehicle models and local temperatures: 1. Vehicle model: Japanese cars prefer low-viscosity oil, while German cars prefer high-viscosity oil. 2. Local temperature: (1) 0W suitable temperature — -35°C (polar regions) (2) 5W suitable temperature — -30°C (northeast and northwest regions) (3) 10W suitable temperature — -25°C (north-central and southwest regions) (4) 15W suitable temperature — -20°C (north-central and southwest regions) (5) 20W suitable temperature — -15°C (areas south of the Yellow River and north of the Yangtze River) (6) 25W suitable temperature — -10°C (subtropical regions)

What does the P0016 trouble code mean?

P0016 trouble code indicates a fault between the crankshaft position and camshaft position. Generally, it may be caused by an unreasonable intake camshaft position. It is necessary to remove the timing cover and check whether the belt is broken, skipped teeth, or displaced, and then address the issue accordingly. Here are the troubleshooting methods for this fault: 1. After removing the timing cover, connect the engine oil pressure gauge to check whether the oil pressure is normal, whether the oil level is within the normal range, and whether the filter screen is clogged. 2. Use a multimeter to measure whether the VVT adjustment solenoid valve is damaged. Unplug the solenoid valve connector and then use a test light to measure the circuit voltage to detect any wiring issues.

What are the pedals in an automatic car from left to right?

In an automatic car, the pedals from left to right are the brake pedal and the accelerator pedal. Introduction to the Brake Pedal: The brake pedal, as the name suggests, is the pedal that limits power, i.e., the pedal for the foot brake. It is used to slow down or stop the vehicle and is one of the five major controls in car driving. It is used very frequently, and the driver's control over it directly affects driving safety. Situations where the brake pedal should be avoided: For small passenger cars going downhill for a long distance, it is recommended to use a lower gear and rely on engine braking to slow down, avoiding the use of the brake pedal as much as possible. For large vehicles or heavily loaded vehicles going downhill for a long distance, it is crucial not to keep the brake pedal pressed continuously; engine braking must be used instead. The reason for this is to prevent brake failure. Introduction to the Accelerator Pedal: The accelerator pedal, also known as the throttle pedal, is used to control the vehicle's speed. When accelerating or starting the car, it is important to press the accelerator pedal gently to prevent sudden jerks that could pose safety hazards. Precautions for Automatic Transmission Cars: Avoid sudden braking and stopping while driving; maintain a safe following distance, anticipate road conditions, and brake in advance. For automatic transmission models, when waiting at a red light for an extended period, do not keep the car in N (neutral) gear while continuously pressing the brake pedal. Instead, shift to N gear and engage the parking brake.

Can I Wear Glasses During the Subject 2 Driving Test?

You can wear glasses. However, you need to remove them when verifying your identity by facial recognition before getting into the car. Subject 2, also known as the small road test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment and refers to the field driving skills test. For small vehicles (C1/C2), the test items include five mandatory components: reversing into a parking space (reverse parking), parallel parking, stopping and starting on a slope, turning at a right angle, and driving through curves (commonly known as S-turns). Some regions may have a sixth item: collecting a toll card on a highway. The learning objectives of Subject 2 are: 1. Mastering the essentials: Grasp the basic driving operation essentials and acquire fundamental vehicle control abilities. 2. Developing skills: Proficiently master the basic methods of field and road driving, develop the ability to reasonably use vehicle controls and correctly manage the vehicle's spatial position, and accurately control the vehicle's position, speed, and route.

What are the penalties and demerit points for mixed passenger and cargo transportation in vans?

Mixed passenger and cargo transportation in vans will result in a fine ranging from 500 to 2,000 yuan and 6 demerit points. Below are precautions for van operation: 1. Pre-departure vehicle inspection: Check tire appearance and pressure, test brakes, and carefully listen to the engine sound before entering the highway. Engine oil should also be inspected. In fact, most van breakdowns on highways are caused by engine damage due to overheating. Although many vans don't use antifreeze, it's necessary to ensure sufficient coolant in the radiator during trips. 2. Even load distribution: Vans are primarily used for cargo transportation, so the load inside should be evenly distributed. Avoid concentrating weight only on the left side or rear, as this can cause uneven tire wear, affect vehicle handling at high speeds, and increase the risk of losing control.
