Mixing two types of engine oil for a long time can affect the engine. Here are the specific details about car refueling: 1. Gasoline grade explanation: Although high-grade gasoline has better anti-knock performance and power, vehicles designed for low-grade gasoline should not blindly use high-grade gasoline. Higher grades are more suitable for engines with larger compression ratios, while engines designed for low-grade gasoline usually have smaller compression ratios. Using high-grade gasoline may increase knocking in the engine. 2. Avoid mixing: Different grades of gasoline should not be mixed, such as mixing 98 and 95 gasoline. Long-term use may have certain effects on the engine, and may even lead to phenomena such as engine carbon deposits and increased fuel consumption.

Can I Register a Locally Purchased Car in My Home Region?

It is possible to register a car purchased in another region in your home region, as long as you have the purchase invoice and the vehicle's certificate of conformity. Considerations for registering an out-of-region car locally: 1. Purchase compulsory traffic insurance, as the insurance policy is required for registration; 2. Obtain temporary license plates—without either permanent or temporary plates, the vehicle cannot legally be driven on the road, as per national regulations; 3. Prepare the necessary documents in advance for registration, including the original and a copy of the certificate of conformity, the original purchase invoice, purchase tax, the owner's ID card, and the compulsory insurance policy; 4. Pay the purchase tax in your home region—if it is paid in another region, you will not be able to register the car locally.

Where is the license plate 'Gui T' from?

Currently, there is no license plate with the prefix 'Gui T'. 'Gui' is the abbreviation for Guizhou Province. The current license plate prefixes for various regions in Guizhou Province are as follows: Gui A is for Guiyang City, Gui B is for Liupanshui City, Gui C is for Zunyi City, Gui D is for Tongren City, Gui E is for Qianxinan Prefecture, Gui F is for Bijie City, Gui G is for Anshun City, Gui H is for Qiandongnan Prefecture, Gui J is for Qiannan Prefecture. License plates serve as the numbering and information registration for vehicles. Their primary function is to identify the region to which a vehicle belongs through the license plate, and to trace the vehicle's owner and registration information based on the license plate. The first character of a license plate is a Chinese character representing the provincial-level administrative region, the second is a letter representing the code for the prefecture-level administrative region, and the last five characters consist of Arabic numerals or English letters.

Difference Between Multi-Point Fuel Injection and Direct Injection in Motorcycles

Differences between direct injection and multi-point fuel injection are introduced as follows: Fuel consumption: Direct injection has lower fuel consumption, while multi-point fuel injection has less stringent fuel quality requirements. Components: Both direct injection and multi-point fuel injection have complex structures and high costs. Operation: In direct injection engines, high-pressure fuel is injected into the combustion chamber in a fine mist. As it evaporates, it absorbs heat, cooling the cylinder and thereby reducing emissions. Multi-point fuel injection involves injectors installed on the intake pipe of each cylinder, with fuel being injected into the cylinder from multiple locations. Technical requirements: Direct injection has higher technical requirements, with the main challenge being the implementation of stratified combustion. Although multi-point fuel injection improves the uneven distribution of air-fuel mixture seen in single-point injection, it does not enhance fuel atomization or the mixing of fuel and air.

What is the temperature range of the water temperature gauge under China 6 standard?

The water temperature gauge under China 6 standard has a range of 0-130°C, with the normal operating temperature at the center mark of 90°C. After starting the vehicle, the water temperature rises rapidly. Once the needle reaches the center position, the temperature stabilizes. Generally, it is optimal to start driving when the temperature reaches the midpoint. Overview of China 6: The China 6 emission standard refers to the National Phase 6 Motor Vehicle Pollutant Emission Standard. It is established to prevent environmental pollution caused by exhaust emissions from compression-ignition and gas-fueled spark-ignition engine vehicles, protect the ecological environment, and safeguard human health. The emission limits under China 6 standard are: Carbon monoxide (CO) emission limit: 700mg; Non-methane hydrocarbons (NMHC) emission limit: 68mg; Nitrogen oxides (NOx) emission limit: 60mg; Particulate matter (PM) emission limit: 4.5mg.

How many kilometers should the Qiao Ge change the gear oil?

After 500 kilometers, the Qiao Ge should change the engine oil every 1000 kilometers, and change the gear oil every two engine oil changes. Benefits of changing gear oil: Reduce the wear of gears and other moving parts, and extend the life of gears. Reduce friction and power loss. Disperse heat and play a certain cooling role. Prevent corrosion and rust. Reduce working noise, vibration and impact between gears. Flush away dirt, especially the dirt between the tooth surfaces, and reduce wear. Selection of gear oil: The selection of viscosity should consider both the temperature of the area where it is used and the anti-wear and transmission properties. Use 75W oil in winter and 90 oil in summer. The difference in viscosity is only to consider the anti-wear and transmission properties, while the lower viscosity gear oil in the manual transmission makes the feeling of shifting gears when the car is cold much better, but the anti-wear and noise are sacrificed a lot.

What is the function of a motorcycle spark plug?

The function of a spark plug is to generate a high-voltage electric spark to ignite the compressed combustible mixture. It ensures the normal operation of the engine, and without it, the vehicle would fail to start. If the spark plug is well-maintained, the vehicle will be very fuel-efficient, run quietly without noise, and be motorcycle-friendly. Spark plug maintenance precautions: Always keep the spark plug insulator clean and dry. During normal use, dust, oil, and other deposits may accumulate on the spark plug insulator. These deposits can form external leakage paths, affecting the normal sparking of the plug. When servicing the engine or performing other operations, be careful not to bump the spark plug insulator, as it may crack under force and impair the spark plug's normal function. When connecting or disconnecting the high-voltage wire, handle it gently and avoid excessive force. Do not shake the spark plug insulator, as this may compromise the plug's sealing or cause damage. New spark plugs or those removed for cleaning and inspection must not be dropped or thrown, as this may damage the insulator.
