Under normal circumstances, the service life of a 1.6L New Sagitar's standard resistor spark plug is 20,000 kilometers, platinum spark plugs last up to 40,000 kilometers, while iridium spark plugs can reach 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers. Actual conditions may vary. Here is relevant information about spark plugs: 1. Introduction: The spark plug is a key component in a car engine's ignition system. Its function is to introduce the high-voltage electricity generated by the ignition coil into the engine cylinder, creating a spark across the electrode gap to ignite the air-fuel mixture. Currently, common types of spark plugs include resistor spark plugs, platinum spark plugs, and iridium spark plugs. 2. How to determine if spark plugs need replacement: Remove the spark plugs and observe the color of deposits, the electrode gap, and whether there is air leakage between the ceramic insulator and metal shell. If the car has difficulty starting when cold, noticeable jerking during driving, idle vibration, or reduced engine acceleration performance, the spark plugs should be inspected promptly.

How to Lift the Lamando Wiper?

Turn off the ignition switch, then within 10 seconds, activate the windshield washer switch and pull the wiper lever toward yourself to lift it. Here is some relevant information: 1. Lifting the wiper has certain benefits. Firstly, the glass becomes very hot under prolonged exposure to high temperatures. If the wiper remains in contact with the glass, it will accelerate the aging of the wiper rubber and may even deform in severe cases. In winter, especially in areas with frequent snowfall, it is advisable to lift the wiper (to prevent freezing), as low temperatures also speed up rubber aging. 2. To reset the wiper, simply reverse the above steps.

How to Check Tire Pressure on MG ZS?

The tire pressure monitoring of MG ZS can be viewed on the car's dashboard with specific values. The normal tire pressure should be between 2.4-2.5 bar. Hazards of Overinflated Tires: Reduced tire friction and adhesion, affecting braking performance; Causes steering wheel vibration and deviation, reducing driving comfort; Accelerates wear on the central tread pattern of the tire, shortening tire life; Increases body vibration, indirectly affecting the lifespan of other components; Overextends the tire cords, reducing tire elasticity and increasing the load on the car while driving; Decreases puncture resistance. When encountering sharp objects like nails or glass on the road, they can easily penetrate the tire, causing internal cracks or blowouts. Hazards of Underinflated Tires: Increases friction with the road surface, leading to higher fuel consumption; Causes heavy steering and deviation, compromising driving safety; Increases movement of tire parts, leading to excessive rolling and abnormal heat generation; Reduces the functionality of cords and rubber, causing delamination or cord breakage and excessive friction with the rim, damaging the tire bead and causing abnormal wear; Multiplies friction with the ground, rapidly increasing tire temperature, softening the tire, and drastically reducing strength. High-speed driving may lead to blowouts; Increases tire deformation, causing cracks on the tire side and generating flexing motion, leading to excessive heat, rubber aging, cord fatigue, and breakage, while also increasing the tire's contact area and accelerating shoulder wear.

How to Open the Fuel Tank Cap of the Cavalier?

The fuel tank cap switch of the Cavalier is located below the left side of the driver's seat. Pull it upward to open. Here is some relevant information: 1. If you encounter a situation where the fuel tank cap cannot be opened, you can also start from the trunk. First, remove the liner covering the fuel tank in the trunk, and you will see the locking mechanism of the fuel tank cap, as well as the pull cable for remote operation. Just pull the cable, and the fuel tank cap will open. If this doesn't work, press the movable part of the locking mechanism while continuously pulling the cable, and the fuel tank cap will open easily. 2. The fuel tank capacity of the Cavalier is 41L, and the material used for the fuel tank is plastic. Currently, most vehicles on the market use resin fuel tanks. Almost all European and American cars use resin fuel tanks, while some Japanese and Korean cars use metal fuel tanks. Additionally, many early vehicle fuel tanks also commonly used metal materials.

How to use the electronic parking brake in the Honda Vezel?

Step on the brake pedal and shift to D gear, then release the electronic parking brake. Press the accelerator to start, and when parking, step on the brake pedal and shift to P gear, then pull up the electronic parking brake. Here is some relevant information: 1. The button behind the Honda Vezel's electronic parking brake is called BrakeHold, which stands for "Automatic Brake Hold" in Chinese, and its full name should be ABH (Auto-Brake-Hold). Most vehicles nowadays are gradually adopting this function, which is mainly designed to provide convenience for temporary parking, such as waiting at traffic lights or stopping on slopes. 2. The difference between "BRAKE-HOLD" and "electronic parking brake" is that the "electronic parking brake" needs to be turned off while driving, but "BRAKEHOLD" can remain on throughout the driving process. When "BRAKE-HOLD" is activated, the dashboard will display a "BRAKE-HOLD" light. After that, during driving, as long as the vehicle is brought to a complete stop by stepping on the brake pedal, "BRAKEHOLD" will engage and lock the vehicle. When the accelerator is pressed again, "BRAKE-HOLD" will automatically disengage.

How to Clean Carbon Deposits in the Combustion Chamber?

Methods for cleaning carbon deposits in the combustion chamber: Use the walnut shell blasting method, which can thoroughly remove carbon deposits. If carbon deposits appear in the combustion chamber, it will increase the compression in the chamber, affecting the engine's power. An increased compression ratio in the combustion chamber can lead to engine knocking, an abnormal combustion phenomenon that impacts both power output and fuel economy. The combustion chamber of a car engine has a designed compression ratio set by automotive engineers. If the temperature and pressure of the air-fuel mixture become too high when the piston compresses it, premature combustion may occur. If the air-fuel mixture ignites, it will push the piston downward while the piston is moving upward, negatively affecting the engine's power output.
