It consumes approximately 2~3 liters of fuel per hour. The engine remains at idle speed, resulting in relatively low fuel consumption. Here are the details: 1. Engine idling: Engine idling consumes a significant amount of fuel. When idling, the engine only drives the air conditioning compressor, and prolonged operation at high temperatures can lead to dangerous accumulations of carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide inside the vehicle. 2. Precautions: Smoking while the car air conditioner is on prevents smoke from being promptly vented outside, which can harm the eyes and respiratory system. Avoid adjusting the temperature excessively; setting the air conditioner to the lowest temperature for rapid cooling can directly affect the human endocrine system. Prolonged exposure to excessively low temperatures may cause symptoms such as leg pain and general chills. It is recommended to maintain a temperature difference of 5-6℃ from the outside environment.

Do I need to bring both the vehicle license and driver's license?

When driving, both the vehicle license and driver's license must be carried. Here is relevant information: 1. Basic information: The full name of the driver's license is the motor vehicle driver's license, also known as a 'driving license'. It is a certificate required by law for motor vehicle drivers. Driving a motor vehicle requires certain driving skills, and those lacking such skills may cause traffic accidents if they drive arbitrarily. Generally, people cannot drive on the road without a license. 2. Permit certificate: A driver who has mastered safe driving techniques is allowed to drive vehicles on the road, and this permit is the 'driver's license'. This indicates that a driver's license is a type of 'permit certificate'.

What are the reasons for no oil output from the high-pressure pipe of an electronically controlled diesel common rail system?

Analysis of the reasons for no oil output from the high-pressure pipe of an electronically controlled diesel common rail system is as follows: 1. The auxiliary shutdown switch is in the connected state. 2. The rail pressure is too low. 3. The battery voltage is too low. 4. The synchronization signal is incorrect. Additional information: 1. A high-pressure common rail diesel engine refers to a fuel supply machine where the generation of injection pressure and the injection process are completely separated in a closed-loop system composed of a high-pressure fuel pump, pressure sensor, and electronic control unit (ECU). 2. The high-pressure fuel pump delivers high-pressure fuel to the common rail (Rail), and precise control is achieved through the fuel pressure in the common rail, making the high-pressure pipe pressure (Pressure) independent of the engine speed, which can significantly reduce the variation of diesel engine fuel supply pressure with engine speed.

What is the large black pipe on the engine?

Engine intake pipe. Extended information is as follows: 1. Introduction: The internal combustion engine intake pipe refers to the pipe that directs the gas required for combustion into the engine. 2. Requirements: The intake pipe must ensure sufficient flow area, avoid bends and sudden changes in cross-section, improve the smoothness of the pipe surface, etc., to reduce resistance. To this end, high-performance gasoline engines adopt a straight-line intake system. While straightening, it is also necessary to reasonably design the throttle and intake pipe length, and arrange an appropriate volume of the pressure stabilizing chamber to achieve high-speed and high-power purposes. 3. Structural parameters: Among the structural parameters of the intake manifold, the main structural parameter that determines the effect of fluctuation on intake is the length of the intake manifold. To ensure the utilization of fluctuation effects, it is necessary to ensure as large a volume of the pressure stabilizing chamber as possible.
