Due to the low energy density of gaseous fuels, natural gas vehicles carry less fuel and have a shorter driving range compared to gasoline-powered vehicles. Most natural gas engines currently in use are modified from gasoline engines, so the power output of gasoline vehicles often decreases by about 10% to 20% after switching to natural gas. Relevant information about gasoline is as follows: 1. Introduction: Gasoline is a volatile, flammable hydrocarbon mixture liquid obtained from petroleum through distillation and cracking, used as fuel. It appears as a transparent liquid, is flammable, and has a distillation range of 30°C to 220°C. 2. Key Characteristics: The important properties of gasoline include volatility, stability, anti-knock quality, corrosiveness, and cleanliness.

What is the fuel tank capacity of the Qin Plus?

Qin Plus has a fuel tank capacity of 48L. Here is relevant information about automotive fuel tanks: 1. Design principle: Utilizing the heat energy generated by the engine during vehicle operation, an additional thermal circulation system is installed between the engine, fuel tank, and radiator. The original single fuel tank is redesigned into a combined fuel tank consisting of a main tank and an auxiliary tank. 2. Fuel tank capacity measurement unit: The international standard uses L (liter) as the measurement unit for automotive fuel tank capacity. Different countries also have corresponding standards for fuel tank capacity. In China, the regulation stipulates that automotive fuel tank capacity should be at 95% of the rated value, but actual capacity usually exceeds the nominal capacity based on practical circumstances, so there's no need to worry about the fuel tank being smaller than indicated.

What Causes a Car to Bounce on Smooth Roads?

Reasons why a car bounces on smooth roads: 1. Incorrect wheel alignment: Wheel alignment refers to the toe angle, camber angle, as well as the caster angle and kingpin inclination angle of the wheels. When these angles change, the tire contact patch and the vehicle's thrust line may be altered; 2. Shock absorber failure: Leaking shocks result in the inability of the shock absorber to control the spring, causing the spring to oscillate several times before stabilizing when encountering bumps; 3. Suspension failure: Vehicles that have been used for a certain period are more prone to suspension aging, leading to a bumpy ride; 4. Frame deformation, front axle displacement, negative toe-in, loose vertical arms, uneven front leaf spring stiffness, and loose tie rod ball joints.

Why do the daytime running lights of BMW 3 Series not turn off after the engine is turned off?

If the daytime running lights remain on after the vehicle is turned off, it is likely due to a short circuit in the wiring. You should take the car to a professional repair shop to fix the wiring. Car Maintenance: Car maintenance involves diagnosing a faulty vehicle through technical means to identify the cause of the problem and taking measures to eliminate the fault, restoring the vehicle to a certain level of performance and safety standards. Precautions for Car Repair: When disassembling various assemblies and components, check whether there are original assembly marks on coupling parts, rotating parts, and non-interchangeable parts before dismantling. If there are no marks, new marks should be made (such as marking the installation position of tires and rims on high-speed vehicles) to prevent incorrect assembly that could damage the original fit or balance.
