Switching to ethanol gasoline does not require adding a cleaner. As a new generation of clean and environmentally friendly fuel, ethanol gasoline itself is an excellent organic solvent with strong dissolving effects. After adding ethanol gasoline, impurities, dirt, and sediments at the bottom of the fuel tank and in the fuel lines will automatically be softened and dissolved into the gasoline. With increasingly stringent national controls on vehicle emissions, both engine technology and fuel quality have been gradually improving. The cleanliness of today's gasoline is very high, and the amount of sediment and dirt produced in the fuel tank is minimal. For cars that are 5 to 6 years old, there is no need to clean the fuel lines at all. If no issues occur after switching to ethanol gasoline, even after driving an additional 30,000 kilometers, cleaning the fuel lines is still unnecessary.

Do cars need to be equipped with fire extinguishers?

Cars need to be equipped with fire extinguishers. Fire extinguishers are portable firefighting equipment that contain chemicals inside to extinguish flames. Cars are at risk of fire in hot weather, due to vehicle malfunctions, or short circuits in the wiring. A fire extinguisher can be used to put out flames, ensuring personal safety and reducing losses. How to use a fire extinguisher: 1. Pick up the fire extinguisher and position yourself upwind; 2. Turn the fire extinguisher upside down several times to loosen the dry powder inside; 3. Remove the safety pin, hold the handle with your left hand, grab the nozzle with your right hand, and turn the fire extinguisher upside down to stand upright; 4.

What Causes an Engine to Blow Up?

The reasons for an automobile engine blowing up are: 1. Design defects causing the engine temperature to exceed its tolerance limit; 2. Poor-quality engine oil and operational malfunctions leading to severe cooling issues; 3. Overuse resulting in excessive workload on the engine; 4. Inaccurate intake/exhaust system and ignition timing in the engine. Precautions to prevent engine blow-up include: 1. Applying glaze to the paint surface to prevent direct exposure; 2. Parking the vehicle in shaded areas to avoid prolonged sun exposure and opening the engine hood for ventilation and cooling. An engine blow-up occurs when the tachometer enters the red zone, where excessive heat causes piston expansion and seizure within the cylinder, leading to engine failure. In severe cases, excessive pressure with immobile pistons may lock all four wheels and result in intense flame ejection.
