To check a car's configurations, you can refer to the vehicle's identification plate. The vehicle identification plate is a label that indicates the basic characteristics of the vehicle, including the manufacturer's brand, model, engine power, total weight, load capacity or passenger capacity, factory serial number, manufacturing date, and manufacturer's name. It provides detailed information such as the car's manufacturing date, engine displacement, and power parameters. The location of the identification plate varies by vehicle, but it is typically found on the lower part of the front passenger door; opening the door will reveal it. The main performance indicators used to evaluate a car usually include: power performance, fuel economy, braking performance, handling stability, ride comfort, and off-road capability. Under certain usage conditions, the ability of a car to operate at maximum efficiency is referred to as the car's operational performance, which represents structural characteristics that determine the car's utilization efficiency and convenience.

Does the Engine Need Carbon Deposit Removal?

Engine carbon deposit removal is necessary, and the methods are as follows: 1. Remove the engine cover, detach the throttle body, and clean it with carburetor cleaner, then dry it with a cloth before reinstalling; 2. Open the oil cap, pour in the entire can of cleaner, close the oil cap, start the engine and let it idle for 10 minutes before turning it off; 3. Add the entire bottle of fuel additive to the fuel tank before refueling; 4. Pour the intake system cleaner into the reservoir of a dedicated cleaning device, connect it to the intake system, and start the engine to allow the vacuum to draw the cleaner into the intake pipes for cleaning purposes. Carbon deposits refer to sludge-like substances formed when fuel and oil vapors that enter the combustion chamber do not burn completely. These deposits accumulate on components such as intake and exhaust valves, spark plugs, fuel injectors, and piston tops, and under the repeated high temperatures of the engine, they eventually form carbon-like deposits.

Should the AC be turned on in a car during winter?

In winter, there is no need to turn on the AC in a car, as it is the switch for the air conditioning compressor. In summer, using the air conditioning requires pressing the AC button to activate the cold air. However, the warm air utilizes the car's internal heat circulation and does not require the air conditioning compressor to be turned on. To use the warm air, simply adjust the air conditioning buttons. When the car starts, the engine begins to warm up. Wait until the engine temperature gauge needle points to the middle position, then turn on the warm air conditioning and set the air circulation to external circulation to expel the cold air inside the car. After 2 to 3 minutes, switch the air circulation to internal circulation. When there is a significant temperature difference between the inside and outside of the car, the front windshield is prone to fogging. Simply adjust the warm air outlet direction to the position that blows air onto the front windshield.
