Motorcycle oil filters should be replaced every 4,000 to 6,000 kilometers. The oil filter, also known as the oil grid, is used to remove impurities such as dust, metal particles, carbon deposits, and soot particles from the oil to protect the engine. Engine oil, which is a lubricant, serves the following functions: lubrication and wear reduction, cleaning and dispersion, cooling, sealing and leak prevention, corrosion and rust prevention, and shock absorption. Engine oil consists of two parts: base oil and additives. It is categorized as follows: 1. Base oil: the main component of lubricating oil, determining the basic properties of the lubricant; 2. Additives: compensate for and improve the shortcomings of the base oil's performance, providing certain new properties.

Does Using Winter Tires in Summer Increase Fuel Consumption?

Winter tires do increase fuel consumption. Switching to winter tires can raise fuel consumption by approximately 15%. The classification and advantages of winter tires are introduced as follows: Classification of Winter Tires: Based on road anti-skid performance, winter tires are divided into three types: serrated surface tires, snow tires, and studded tires. Advantages of Winter Tires: Winter tires enhance friction with snow and ice surfaces through special formulations. Their benefits include improved traction and safety on snowy and icy roads. The tread material of winter tires is softer, and the carefully formulated silica-mixed rubber compound allows for closer contact with slippery ice surfaces, generating greater friction compared to all-season tires. This improves vehicle handling and safety on slippery ice surfaces.

Can Engine Oil Be Used as Power Steering Fluid?

Power steering fluid cannot be replaced with engine oil. Power steering fluid, also known as hydraulic steering fluid, is specifically designed for use in a car's power steering pump. It utilizes hydraulic pressure to make steering wheel operation easier. Engine oil serves a different purpose and cannot achieve the same effect. Power Steering Fluid: Power steering is a modern technology that enhances driving comfort by automatically providing steering assistance during turns, thereby reducing the driver's effort. Power steering fluid is a specialized medium added to the power steering system to transmit steering force and provide cushioning. It cannot be substituted with engine oil. Consequences: Using engine oil as a substitute would cause severe internal wear in the steering gear, adversely affect engine performance, and potentially accelerate damage. Power steering fluid is essentially a hydraulic oil that operates in a closed system and does not require cleaning.

Why is the brake pedal so hard?

It is mostly caused by a faulty vacuum booster pump, or there may be air leakage in the booster pump pipe. Below is an introduction to the issue of a hard brake pedal: 1. After turning off the engine, press the brake pedal several times with your foot, and it will become very hard and immovable. Then, after starting the engine, the brake pedal will soften and lower. If this happens, it indicates that the booster pump is working. If there is no issue, check the pipes for air leaks and also see if the brake fluid is low. 2. If the problem occurs occasionally and intermittently, it means the booster pump is damaged and needs to be replaced. If the pipe is broken, the brake pedal will remain hard regardless of whether the engine is off or running.

Can Motorcycle and Car Driving Licenses Be Separated?

Motorcycle and car driving licenses cannot be separated. Driving License: The full name of the driving license is the motor vehicle driving license, also known as a 'driver's license.' It is a certificate required by law for individuals to operate motor vehicles. For those who have acquired safe driving skills to operate vehicles on the road, this permit is called a 'driving license.' This indicates that a driving license is a type of 'permission certificate.' Important Notes: According to regulations, if a citizen wishes to obtain licenses for two or more types of vehicles, they are only allowed to have one driving license. This means that if someone already has a motorcycle license and wants to obtain a C1 license, these two licenses will be merged into one. It is not permitted to have one motorcycle license and one C1 license separately.
