The method for cleaning a sedan fuel tank is as follows: 1. Clean and inspect the exterior of the fuel tank, check for dents and leaks in the tank, fuel pipes, and joints, and tighten the fuel tank bracket mounting bolts; 2. Open the fuel tank cap, remove the filter screen, and siphon out part of the fuel from the tank, leaving about 30L of fuel inside. Insert a cleaned compressed air pipe into the tank through the fuel filler opening to reach the bottom, and use air pressure to agitate the fuel at the bottom of the tank for cleaning. If the drained fuel appears dirty, repeat the cleaning process as described above. After cleaning, add clean fuel to the tank, secure the tank cap, and wipe the exterior of the tank clean. Finally, note that the fuel drained from the tank must be allowed to settle for 72 hours before it can be used.

How Many Liters of Transmission Oil Should Be Added to the Levin?

Levin's CVT transmission requires 4 liters of oil. It is best to use the original factory oil when changing the transmission oil, because part of the oil cannot be completely drained during the oil change and remains in the transmission. Mixing other brands of oil with the residual oil in the transmission may cause a reaction, leading to transmission damage. The Levin is a compact sedan with a body length, width, and height of 4630mm, 1775mm, and 1480mm, respectively. In terms of power, this car offers two power models, equipped with a 1.2T turbocharged engine and a 1.8L hybrid system, respectively.

How Often Should Engine Oil Be Changed in a Van?

Van engine oil should be changed every 7,500 kilometers or every six months. The functions of engine oil are: 1. To cushion the impact load on pistons, piston skirts, connecting rods, and crankshaft bearings; 2. To form a sealing ring between the piston rings and pistons, reducing gas leakage and preventing external contaminants from entering. The method for changing engine oil is: 1. Lift the vehicle, remove the underbody shield, and place a container of about 10 liters under the oil drain plug; 2. Unscrew the oil drain plug, use an air gun to blow into the oil filler port for two minutes, then tighten the oil drain plug after draining and wipe it with a tissue to check for leaks; 3. Reinstall the underbody shield and lower the vehicle, then use a funnel to pour new oil into the filler port.

What is the difference between the car's external circulation and internal circulation?

The differences between the car's external circulation and internal circulation are: 1. Different circulation methods: External circulation involves heating or cooling the air outside the car before sending it into the car, meaning gas exchange between the inside and outside of the car; Internal circulation refers to the air inside the car being heated or cooled before being sent back into the car. 2. Different symbols: The external circulation icon is an unenclosed car with an air arrow pointing into the car from outside; The internal circulation icon is an enclosed car with a circular arrow inside. The uses of external and internal circulation are: 1. When turning on the air conditioning for cooling or heating, activating internal circulation can quickly lower or raise the temperature inside the car; 2. When the outside air environment is poor, activating internal circulation is recommended.
