After using 98-octane gasoline, you can switch back to 95-octane, but it's recommended to first completely use up the 98-octane fuel before refilling with 95-octane. Vehicle owners are advised not to frequently switch between different gasoline grades. Once you've selected a fuel type, it's best to 'stick with it' and consistently use the same grade over the long term. The differences between 98-octane and 95-octane gasoline are as follows: 1. Different octane ratings: The grade number only indicates the octane value of the gasoline. The octane value is determined by comparing the fuel's knock intensity with standard fuels (iso-octane and n-heptane), where the percentage volume of iso-octane in the standard fuel that produces equivalent knock intensity represents the sample's octane value; 2. Different anti-knock combustion capabilities: Higher octane values indicate better anti-knock combustion performance; 3. Price difference: Generally, higher-grade gasoline offers better quality, and consequently comes with a higher price.

What are the reasons why a Honda car won't start?

Honda XRV may fail to start due to one of the following reasons: 1. Battery depletion: Symptoms: The starter begins to turn but lacks sufficient rotational speed (weak power), eventually making only clicking sounds without turning. Low winter temperatures and forgotten electrical devices can prevent the vehicle from starting, especially after prolonged short-distance low-speed usage in winter when battery voltage drops below rated values, making normal operation impossible. Emergency solution: If this occurs, call the service center for assistance, jump-start the vehicle, or temporarily start it, then ensure the battery is recharged at a service center. 2. Fuel flow obstruction: Symptoms: No oil pressure in the engine fuel supply line. This often occurs on extremely cold mornings due to long-term fuel line contamination. At very low temperatures, water mixed with debris can block the fuel line, preventing startup. Emergency solution: Move the car to a warmer environment, and it may start after a while; or thoroughly clean the fuel system as a permanent solution.

Standard passenger capacity for passenger cars: Usually, the standard passenger capacity for passenger cars is 5 people, but there may be situations where the number of passengers exceeds this limit.
