There is no mandatory scrapping requirement. As long as it can pass the annual inspection, the vehicle can be driven on the road normally. Below is relevant information: 1. Emission Standards: China 3 and China 4 standards are based on Euro 3 and Euro 4 vehicle emission standards. Compared to China 2, China 3 further reduces the limits on pollutant emissions. The exhaust pollutant emission limits of China 3 standard are 30% lower than those of China 2 standard, while China 4 standard will further reduce them by 60%. 2. China IV: The China IV emission standard is the fourth stage national standard for motor vehicle pollutant emissions. The main pollutants emitted by vehicles include HC (hydrocarbons), NOx (nitrogen oxides), CO (carbon monoxide), PM (particulate matter), etc. Technologies such as improved catalytic converter active layers, secondary air injection, and exhaust gas recirculation systems with cooling devices are applied to meet these standards.

What to Do If Gasoline Leaks into Engine Oil?

You can check whether the spark plugs are igniting normally, whether the engine is running smoothly, and whether there is any leakage in the car's fuel system. If any issues are found, please promptly visit a 4S shop to seek professional assistance. The engine oil should be drained completely and cleaned. Gasoline entering the engine oil may be due to the following reasons: Incomplete combustion of gasoline: Unburned gasoline flows along the cylinder walls into the crankcase. In this case, you should check whether the spark plugs can ignite normally and observe whether the engine operates smoothly. Fuel system leakage: At this time, the fuel system should be inspected promptly to identify the source of the leak and carry out necessary repairs.

How Does an Engine Work?

The working principle of an engine is to convert thermal energy into kinetic energy. Most engines operate on a four-stroke cycle, which includes the intake stroke, compression stroke, power stroke, and exhaust stroke. The vast majority of automotive engines are four-stroke. 1. Intake Stroke: The working medium entering the cylinder is pure air. Due to the lower resistance in the diesel engine's intake system, the intake end pressure pa=(0.85~0.95)p0 is higher than that of a gasoline engine. The intake end temperature Ta=300~340K is lower than that of a gasoline engine. 2. Compression Stroke: Since the compressed working medium is pure air, the compression ratio of a diesel engine is higher than that of a gasoline engine (typically ε=16~22). The compression end pressure is 3000~5000 kPa, and the compression end temperature is 750~1000K, significantly exceeding the auto-ignition temperature of diesel (approximately 520K). 3. Power Stroke: As the compression stroke nears completion, diesel fuel is injected into the cylinder combustion chamber at a high pressure of about 10MPa through the fuel injector under the action of the high-pressure fuel pump. It mixes with air and spontaneously ignites within a very short time. The pressure inside the cylinder rises rapidly, reaching a maximum of 5000~9000 kPa, with a peak temperature of 1800~2000K. Since diesel engines rely on compression for ignition, they are called compression-ignition engines. 4. Exhaust Stroke: The exhaust process of a diesel engine is similar to that of a gasoline engine, except that the exhaust temperature is lower. Typically, Tr=700~900K. For a single-cylinder engine, the speed is uneven, the engine operation is unstable, and vibrations are significant. This is because only one of the four strokes is the power stroke, while the other three strokes consume energy to prepare for the power stroke. To address this issue, the flywheel must have sufficient rotational inertia, which in turn increases the overall mass and size of the engine. Multi-cylinder engines can compensate for these shortcomings. Modern vehicles commonly use four-cylinder, six-cylinder, and eight-cylinder engines.

Should the handbrake be released or pulled up after parking?

After parking, the handbrake should be pulled up, and when driving, it should be released. Releasing the handbrake means lowering it, allowing you to shift into first gear and start moving. The handbrake is a frequently used tool when starting or parking a car. How to use the handbrake The handbrake consists of a handle and a button at the top of the handle. To use it, hold the handle with your right hand, press the button with your thumb, and pull the handbrake up to engage the parking brake function. When you want to drive, you need to disengage the parking brake. Hold the handle with your right hand, press the button with your thumb, and push the handle down to release the handbrake. Parking brakes can be divided into three categories: One type is the manual brake; Another type is the foot-operated brake; And the last type is the electronic parking brake. Parking brake working principle: The handbrake (parking brake) is an auxiliary braking system that relies mainly on manual force. It is typically used when parking to prevent the vehicle from rolling. It mainly consists of a brake lever, cables, brake mechanism, and return spring. It locks the drive shaft to immobilize the drive wheels, and some models lock both rear wheels. The brake lever utilizes the lever principle, locking into place via a locking tooth when pulled to a fixed position. Precautions for using the parking brake: Do not engage the parking brake while the car is moving, as this can cause overheating, reduce the effectiveness of the rear brakes, shorten the brake's lifespan, or cause permanent damage. If the parking brake cannot hold the car securely or does not fully release, have it inspected by a dealer or service center immediately. Before leaving the car, always fully engage the parking brake; otherwise, the car may move, causing injury or damage. When parking, ensure that the gear lever of a manual transmission car is in neutral, and the gear lever of an automatic transmission car is in the "P" (Park) or "N" (Neutral) position. Most automatic transmission cars only allow the ignition key to be removed when in "P" gear. Except under special circumstances, strictly avoid parking the car while the transmission is in a forward gear (D, S, L, or with Arabic numerals) or reverse (R) position.

Should the Excelle use 92 or 95 octane gasoline?

According to the official vehicle manual recommendation, the Excelle should use 92 octane gasoline. In addition to checking the appropriate gasoline grade in the vehicle manual, the Excelle's fuel cap also displays this information. Generally, the gasoline grade can also be determined based on the engine's compression ratio. Vehicles with an engine compression ratio between 8.6-9.9 should use 92 octane gasoline, while those with a compression ratio between 10.0-11.5 should use 95 octane gasoline. However, with the application of new technologies, the compression ratio alone cannot determine the gasoline grade, as high compression ratio engines can also be tuned to use lower octane gasoline. Other factors, such as ignition timing, turbocharging technology, and Atkinson cycle technology, also play a role. Generally, the higher the gasoline grade, the higher the octane number and the better the anti-knock performance. 92 octane gasoline contains 92% isooctane and 8% n-heptane, while 95 octane gasoline contains 95% isooctane and 5% n-heptane. If the Excelle occasionally uses the wrong gasoline grade, simply switch back to the correct grade after consumption. However, long-term use of the wrong gasoline grade can have the following effects: For vehicles designed for lower octane gasoline, using higher octane gasoline will not cause damage, but the increased octane number can alter the fuel's ignition point, leading to delayed combustion in the engine. This reduces the engine's power output and thermal efficiency, resulting in poorer performance. For vehicles designed for higher octane gasoline, using lower octane gasoline can cause engine knocking. The significantly lower octane number reduces the fuel's ignition point, causing premature ignition during the compression stroke. If the fuel ignites before the spark plug fires, resistance occurs during the upward stroke. This resistance makes the engine run very unstably. Mild knocking only increases noise without significant engine damage, but severe knocking indicates serious engine conditions, affecting not only driving stability but also causing abnormal wear on pistons and cylinders, and even cylinder scoring in extreme cases.
