Corolla's fuel tank allows fuel siphoning. Operation procedure: Insert a tube into the fuel at the filter inlet. By utilizing the siphon principle, liquid can be drawn without a pump. When liquid in a higher position fills an inverted U-shaped tube structure with its opening at a lower position, the pressure difference between both ends of the tube can propel the liquid over the highest point and discharge it from the other end. Fuel refueling precautions: Avoid overfilling the fuel tank during regular refueling. Excessive fuel may expand and damage the tank, and contact with open flames could cause instant combustion. Overfilling also increases the vehicle's overall weight and fuel consumption.

How to Drift with a Manual Transmission Car?

After starting the car, quickly turn the steering wheel to full lock, press the clutch, and shift into 1st gear. The higher the RPM, the easier it is for the tires to lose traction quickly, generally above 5000 RPM. After releasing the handbrake, quickly lift the clutch pedal, remembering to do it swiftly. Keep the steering wheel at full lock, continue to apply throttle, and maintain engine RPM.

How to distinguish between high-frequency and low-frequency car horns?

The unit responsible for reproducing high-frequency sounds, due to the higher frequencies, has a relatively thinner diaphragm to adapt to high-frequency vibrations. Responsible for reproducing low-frequency sounds, with larger and relatively slower vibration amplitudes, hence equipped with thicker paper cones and voice coils. The characteristic of high-frequency horns is the ability to vibrate quickly to produce sound, but their vibration amplitude is usually smaller. Their feature is having sufficiently large vibration amplitudes to push air and create high sound pressure (also known as sound pressure waves).

How to Remove the Steering Wheel of a Kia K2?

For safety reasons, disconnect the battery cables before removal. It's best to have two people working together. Use a hex wrench to remove the two screws under the steering wheel. After removal, pull out the airbag. Then, after loosening the screws, gently wiggle and use a puller to slowly extract it. Once removed, also take off the two reserved plastic shells. Another method is forceful removal: loosen the height and front-back adjustment of the steering wheel, slightly lift the steering wheel upwards, and then hammer the central shaft.

How to Distinguish Positive and Negative Terminals of Car Horn Wires?

Select the range and setting of the polarity tester based on the horn's power and voltage. Connect the test leads, power up the polarity tester, and turn on the polarity tester switch. Touch the test leads to the two input terminals of the horn (speaker). The horn will emit intermittent beeping sounds. Align the horn towards the microphone of the polarity tester. The indicator lights will illuminate: green indicates positive, and red indicates negative. If the result is positive, the terminal touched by the positive test lead is the positive terminal, and vice versa for the negative terminal. If a single horn is used for listening to music, the polarity of the horn has no effect.
