Replaced old tires can be sold. Waste tires belong to scrap rubber, which generally does not decompose on its own, and indiscriminate disposal can have a significant environmental impact. When your vehicle's waste tires are replaced, please do not discard them carelessly. Waste tires can be sold to recycling shops or to tire repair professionals. Proper disposal of waste tires contributes to environmental protection. Methods for handling old tires: 1. Tire retreading: Tire retreading technology involves refurbishing worn or otherwise damaged tires to restore their usability. 2. Using catalysts to convert waste tires into oil: The technology for converting waste tires into oil involves heating and pressurizing waste tires to extract fuel. If simple and cheap equipment is used, this method can easily cause secondary pollution. 3. Rubber powder and reclaimed rubber from tires: This technology first involves crushing waste tires into 20~30 mesh rubber powder using specialized equipment, followed by desulfurization treatment to soften the rubber powder into malleable reclaimed rubber, which can then be reprocessed into various rubber products. If the desulfurization process is not up to standard, it can also cause pollution.

Do I still need to go to the DMV for the six-year exemption from inspection?

6-year exemption from inspection means that new vehicles do not need to undergo on-site testing, but every two years, you still need to go to the DMV to apply for the annual inspection compliance sticker, which must be affixed to the upper right corner of the windshield. One important thing to note is that not all new vehicles are eligible for the 6-year exemption policy. If you purchase a 7-seater MPV, you will have to follow the policy of on-site inspection every two years. More relevant information is as follows: 1. Expired inspection: If you fail to complete the annual inspection on time, you will not only be caught by traffic police or electronic surveillance but also face a 3-point deduction and a fine. More seriously, if you miss the inspection three times in a row, your vehicle may be subject to mandatory scrapping. Additionally, if an accident occurs while driving and the vehicle has not undergone the annual inspection on time, the insurance company will not provide compensation. 2. Determining vehicle inspection: The most straightforward method is to check the vehicle registration certificate, which will indicate the final date for applying for the annual inspection sticker. Generally, you should go to the DMV to handle it three months in advance (including the current month).

Does the spark plug work continuously or only during ignition?

Spark plugs work continuously as long as the engine is running. Working principle of spark plugs: The ground electrode of the spark plug is connected to the metal shell, which is threaded into the engine block via the cylinder head. The insulator primarily serves to isolate the metal shell from the center electrode. The terminal nut is the part of the spark plug that contacts the high-voltage coil. When current passes through the terminal nut and the center electrode, it ionizes the medium between the center electrode and the ground electrode, generating a spark to ignite the air-fuel mixture in the cylinder. Spark plug replacement intervals: Under normal maintenance conditions, spark plugs should be replaced every 40,000 to 60,000 kilometers. However, this may vary depending on the brand and engine type, so it's recommended to follow the owner's manual. The following standards can serve as a reference for maintenance replacement: Platinum spark plugs should be replaced at 40,000 kilometers, standard nickel alloy spark plugs at 20,000 kilometers, and iridium spark plugs at 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers.

What are the essential maintenance items at 30,000 kilometers?

At 30,000 kilometers, the essential car maintenance items include oil change, oil filter replacement, air filter replacement, fuel filter replacement, throttle body cleaning, and spark plug replacement. The oil and oil filter replacement primarily focus on the lubrication system maintenance. The main function of the lubrication system is to effectively lubricate various components of the car engine to prevent excessive wear. The oil filter's role is to remove various impurities from the oil, ensuring the proper functioning of the lubrication system. Below is an introduction to car maintenance: 1. Introduction to car maintenance: Car maintenance refers to the preventive work of regularly inspecting, cleaning, supplying, lubricating, adjusting, or replacing certain parts of the car, also known as car servicing. 2. Scope of car maintenance: Modern car maintenance mainly includes the engine system (engine), transmission system, air conditioning system, cooling system, fuel system, power steering system, and other maintenance areas. 3. Purpose of car maintenance: The purpose of car maintenance is to keep the car clean, maintain normal technical conditions, eliminate hidden dangers, prevent faults, slow down the deterioration process, and extend the service life.

Is the car clean after changing the oil?

After changing the oil, the car becomes relatively clean. Engine oil is extremely important for the engine, as it serves the functions of lubrication, heat dissipation, cleaning, and sealing within the engine. Engine oil can be considered the lifeblood of the engine. If the engine oil is not changed for a long time, its lubricating performance will degrade, leading to abnormal wear and tear on the engine. The method for changing car engine oil is as follows: 1. Wait for the engine temperature to cool down, allowing the oil to flow back into the oil pan. 2. Use a wrench to loosen the oil drain plug and place an oil pan underneath to catch the old oil until it stops flowing. Then, start the engine for about 30 seconds to allow the oil in the main oil passage to drain out. 3. Use a special wrench to remove the oil filter; apply some oil to the oil seal of the new oil filter and tighten it clockwise by hand. 4. Add the new engine oil through the oil filler cap on the engine valve cover, typically filling about three-quarters of the oil container. 5. Start the engine and let it run for 5 minutes, checking for any leaks around the oil drain plug and oil filter. 6. After stopping the engine, pull out the oil dipstick to ensure the engine oil level is within the standard range.
