Place the crankshaft at the top dead center of the first cylinder, use the special tool for the camshaft to align the camshaft timing, and fix it at the rear housing. The front part does not need adjustment and can be installed directly. More relevant information is as follows: 1. Use special tools to disassemble and assemble the timing system: During the operation, it is best to use special tools to disassemble and assemble the timing system. The chain has sections with colors different from other links, corresponding to the intake and exhaust camshaft sprockets and the crankshaft combined sprocket. 2. All markings must not be mistaken: The assembly markings on both ends of the crankshaft combined sprocket must not be mistaken, and the intake and exhaust camshaft sprockets also have markings on both ends. The markings on the balance shaft chain are the same as the timing, and the oil pump chain should be installed.

What brand is the engine of the Changan Lingxuan?

The engine of the Changan Lingxuan is independently produced by Changan Automobile and belongs to a domestically manufactured engine. The 1.5T version of the Changan Lingxuan engine has the model number H15T-AA, with a maximum power of 115kw, maximum torque of 225 Nm, and maximum horsepower of 156. The 1.6L version has the model number JL478QEA, with a maximum power of 92kw, maximum torque of 160 Nm, and maximum horsepower of 125. For daily maintenance of the Changan Lingxuan engine, the following methods can be used: Use lubricating oil of the appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, select SD--SF grade gasoline engine oil based on the additional equipment of the intake and exhaust systems and usage conditions; for diesel engines, choose CB--CD grade diesel engine oil according to mechanical load, with the selection standard not lower than the manufacturer's requirements; Regularly change the oil and oil filter. The quality of any grade of lubricating oil will change during use. After a certain mileage, performance deteriorates, leading to various engine problems. To avoid faults, change the oil regularly according to usage conditions and maintain an appropriate oil level; When oil passes through the fine pores of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances in the oil accumulate in the filter. If the filter is blocked and oil cannot pass through the filter element, it may burst the filter element or open the safety valve, allowing oil to bypass through the bypass valve and carry contaminants back to the lubrication area, accelerating engine wear and increasing internal pollution; Regularly clean the crankcase. During engine operation, high-pressure unburned gas, acids, moisture, sulfur, and nitrogen oxides from the combustion chamber enter the crankcase through the gap between the piston rings and cylinder walls, mixing with metal powder from component wear to form sludge. A small amount remains suspended in the oil, while a large amount precipitates, clogging filters and oil passages, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear; Regularly use radiator cleaner to clean the radiator. Removing rust and scale not only ensures the engine operates normally but also extends the overall lifespan of the radiator and engine.

What is the fuel tank capacity of the Baojun 360?

2021 Baojun 360 has a total of 7 models, all with a fuel tank capacity of 40 liters. The vehicle is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, paired with either a 6-speed manual transmission or an 8-speed continuously variable transmission. In terms of drivetrain, all models feature front-engine, front-wheel drive. Among vehicles in the same class, the 2021 Wuling Hongguang PLUS has a fuel tank capacity of 53 liters, while the 2021 Oushang Changxing has a 45-liter fuel tank. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the calibrated capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity specified by automakers refers to the volume from the tank bottom to the safe fill level, with additional space reserved between the safe fill level and the tank opening. This space ensures fuel expansion when temperatures rise without causing overflow. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual refueling volume may exceed the nominal tank capacity. To check remaining fuel, drivers can observe the fuel gauge on the right side of the instrument panel, marked with E (Empty) and F (Full). When the needle approaches E, it indicates low fuel level, while nearing F means sufficient fuel supply.

What does it mean when 12123 shows the vehicle is temporarily impounded?

12123 showing the vehicle is temporarily impounded indicates that the vehicle needs to undergo inspection. Below is an introduction about 12123: 1. Introduction: The SMS service, through the development of a unified SMS platform software, connects to the SMS gateways of China's three major telecom operators—China Mobile, China Unicom, and China Telecom—using the 12123 number to send SMS messages, providing services such as business notifications and safety education information push. 2. Advantages: Using the nationally unified '12123' number not only makes it easier for the public to remember but also enhances the government's credibility. As a unified service identifier for the public by the traffic management department of the public security authorities, it helps establish an image of quality, scale, strong service awareness, and trustworthiness in the public consciousness. 3. Services: With the adoption of the nationally unified service, SMS messages can be sent to vehicle owners, drivers, and other traffic participants nationwide, completely resolving the issue of inadequate notification services for mobile phones from other provinces and cities. Additionally, it saves costs for the public. According to relevant national regulations, dialing the nationally unified public welfare service short number only requires paying local call communication fees.

What Causes Abnormal Noise When Starting a Car?

Abnormal noise when starting a car may be caused by clutch failure, transmission failure, lower arm failure, or inner CV joint wear. It is best to have it inspected and repaired at a local 4S shop or professional repair shop. Here is some relevant information: 1. Normal noises: Various vibrations from the car's mechanisms during operation can produce different types of sounds. However, the presence of noise does not necessarily indicate a fault. To avoid unnecessary disassembly, it is important to distinguish between normal and abnormal noises. Normal vibration sounds from various system components (such as noise from the engine surface), gear impact sounds during shifting, intake and exhaust sounds from gas-operated sources, and gear meshing noises are all considered normal. 2. Abnormal noises: Abnormal noises can be categorized into minor, moderate, and severe based on their impact on the car's performance. Minor noises, such as sparking from high-voltage electrical leakage or slight looseness in rolling bearings, are generally low in volume and cause minimal wear to components. Moderate noises, such as flywheel bearing noise or clutch release bearing noise, significantly affect the car's performance but can still maintain its main technical functions in the short term. Severe noises, such as loud crankshaft or connecting rod bearing noises accompanied by a drop in oil pressure, pronounced gear clashing in the transmission, or strong differential vibrations, have serious effects on the car and may lead to or already have caused severe damage to components.
