Generally, the first car maintenance should be done within 3-5 months or after driving 3,000-5,000 kilometers, and for some cars, it can be extended up to 8,000 kilometers. The specific time and mileage depend on the vehicle model. Here is an introduction to car maintenance: 1. Definition: Car maintenance refers to the regular preventive work of inspecting, cleaning, replenishing, lubricating, adjusting, or replacing certain parts of the car, also known as car servicing. 2. Scope: Modern car maintenance mainly includes the engine system, transmission system, air conditioning system, cooling system, fuel system, power steering system, etc. 3. Purpose: To keep the car clean and in good technical condition, eliminate potential hazards, prevent failures, slow down the deterioration process, and extend the service life.

What causes the green light to flash without switching to gas in a gasoline-to-gas conversion?

If the green light flashes without switching to gas in a gasoline-to-gas conversion, it might be due to a stuck fuel pump or a malfunctioning fuel pump, which can cause sudden fuel supply interruption and engine stalling. Introduction to Gasoline-to-Gas Conversion: It involves installing a natural gas system in a conventional gasoline-powered vehicle, allowing it to switch between gasoline and natural gas, effectively making it a dual-fuel vehicle. When the coolant temperature exceeds 60 degrees Celsius, the system can switch between natural gas and gasoline. When the natural gas is nearly depleted, the system can also be forced to switch back to gasoline mode. Pros and Cons of Gasoline-to-Gas Conversion: The advantages include cleaner and more efficient combustion, reduced carbon buildup, superior anti-knock performance, and no dilution of engine oil, thereby extending the lifespan of internal engine components. The drawbacks include a potential power loss of 10% to 20% in some converted vehicles, increased vehicle weight, and slightly reduced performance compared to running on gasoline.

What is the application scope of 85w-90 gear oil?

85w-90 gear oil is suitable for manual transmission vehicles. Working conditions of gear oil: The contact area between gears is very small, basically line contact, and during movement there is both rolling friction and sliding friction. Therefore, the working conditions of gear oil are quite different from other lubricants. Due to the small contact area between gears, the pressure they bear is very high. The tooth surface pressure of some heavy machinery reducer gears reaches 400-1000MPa, and the operating conditions of hypoid gears in automotive transmission systems are even more demanding with heavier loads. The pressure at the contact points can be as high as 1000-4000MPa. Under such high pressure, the lubricating oil is easily squeezed out from between the teeth, which can easily cause scratches and wear on the tooth surfaces. Therefore, gear oil must have the performance to keep the tooth surfaces in a state of boundary lubrication and elastohydrodynamic lubrication under high loads. Functions of gear oil: Lubricate the transmission system, reduce wear on gears and moving parts, ensure normal operation of the transmission system, and extend service life. Reduce friction and transmission losses in gear transmissions, improving mechanical efficiency. Cool transmission components. During gear transmission, a large amount of heat is generated due to tooth surface contact friction. If not dissipated in time, it can cause

Can a Temporary ID Be Used for the Subject 2 Driving Test?

Temporary ID can be used for the Subject 2 driving test. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses," first-time applicants for a driver's license must submit their identity proof. Although a temporary ID is valid for only three months, it still serves as the applicant's identity proof and holds the same legal validity as a permanent ID. The Subject 2 test usually requires magnetic stripe scanning, but a temporary driver's license cannot be scanned. If using a temporary ID for the Subject 2 test, you need to inform the test center staff in advance, and they will arrange the test for you. Generally, candidates using temporary IDs are scheduled to take the test last. If you lose your ID on the test day, you can apply for a temporary ID at the household registration office before the test. Subject 2: For small vehicles (C1), the test includes five mandatory items: reverse parking, parallel parking, stopping and starting on a slope, right-angle turns, and curve driving (commonly known as S-curves). In some regions, there is a sixth item: highway toll card collection. For C2 vehicles, the test includes four mandatory items: reverse parking, parallel parking, right-angle turns, and curve driving (S-curves). For large vehicles (A1, A2, A3, B1, B2), the test includes: pole test, stopping and starting on a slope, parallel parking, single-plank bridge crossing, curve driving, right-angle turns, passing through a width-restricted gate, passing through continuous obstacles, driving on undulating roads, narrow-road U-turns, as well as simulated highway driving, continuous sharp turns on mountain roads, tunnels, rainy (foggy) conditions, slippery roads, and emergency handling.

What is the diameter of a 4-inch wheel in centimeters?

A 4-inch caster has a diameter of 100mm. Method for measuring dimensions: The vehicle length is the distance between the two extreme points in the longitudinal direction of the car, measured from the most protruding point of the front bumper to the most protruding point of the rear bumper. The vehicle width is the distance between the two extreme points in the transverse direction of the car, i.e., the distance between the leftmost and rightmost protruding points of the body. According to industry standards, the vehicle width does not include the width of the extended left and right rearview mirrors, meaning the width when the mirrors are folded. The vehicle height is measured from the ground to the highest point of the car, where the highest point refers to the topmost position of the roof, excluding the length of the roof antenna. Related car dimensions: The dimensions of the Peugeot 308 are not significantly different from those of the 307. The domestic Peugeot 308 has a body size of 4558mm in length, 1805mm in width, and 1505mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2612mm. Compared to the 307, there is a slight increase in length, width, and height.
