A sedan can typically drive 40 to 60 kilometers after the fuel gauge light comes on. When the fuel light illuminates, you should refuel as soon as possible to avoid the embarrassment of your car stalling due to running out of fuel on the road. Waiting until the fuel light comes on before refueling may cause damage to the fuel pump and filter. When driving normally, do not wait until the fuel gauge shows a yellow warning light to refuel. As soon as you see the fuel gauge nearing empty, you should refuel immediately. The less gasoline there is, the greater the harm to the car. The fuel pump is cooled by gasoline, and insufficient gasoline can affect the cooling effect of the fuel pump. Over time, the fuel pump is likely to be damaged, and with insufficient gasoline, the working noise of the fuel pump will also increase.

How to Use the Automotive Fuel System?

Automotive fuel system usage method: Regularly add high-quality fuel system cleaner (use once every 20,000 kilometers). It can effectively remove gum, carbon deposits, and deposits from the combustion chamber, intake and exhaust valves, fuel injectors, and fuel lines during vehicle operation, keeping all parts of the fuel system clean. The function of the fuel system is to supply the engine with a certain amount of clean, well-atomized gasoline according to the operating conditions of the engine, so as to mix with a certain amount of air to form a combustible mixture. At the same time, the fuel system also needs to store a considerable amount of gasoline to ensure that the car has a considerable driving range.

Can you park on a road with white solid lines?

White solid lines have no direct relation to parking permissions. In fact, white solid lines serve as the boundary markers for motor vehicle lanes, separating them from non-motorized vehicle lanes or sidewalks. There is no inherent connection between white solid lines and parking allowances. To determine whether parking is permitted along roads with white solid lines, you need to refer to other traffic signs and markings. Here are the relevant guidelines: 1. Prohibition of both long-term and temporary parking: This is indicated by yellow solid lines along the roadside, or roadside signs featuring an "×" symbol, or signs with "No Parking" in diagonal text, or yellow solid lines painted along the curb edge. 2. Temporary parking allowed: This is indicated by yellow dashed lines along the roadside, or roadside signs marked with "Temporary Parking," or regularly spaced yellow squares along the curb edge.

Why is the car air conditioning not blowing strong?

Here are the reasons why the car air conditioning may not be blowing strong: 1. Reason one: A dirty air conditioning filter can obstruct the airflow. The air conditioning filter is designed to filter impurities from the air entering the cabin. If too many impurities accumulate, it can affect the airflow from the vents. Owners can regularly clean the air conditioning filter by using a vacuum cleaner to remove dust from the filter or by using an air compressor gun. If the filter is excessively dirty, it is recommended to replace it, as air conditioning filters are not expensive. The replacement cycle for an air conditioning filter is every 10,000 kilometers or six months. 2. Reason two: A clogged air conditioning condenser can also cause weak airflow from the car air conditioning. Since the air conditioning condenser is located at the front of the car and is not easy to clean, it is advisable to leave the cleaning to professionals to ensure thorough cleaning.
