High-pressure pipes and low-pressure pipes can be distinguished by the following methods: 1. High-pressure pipes are thinner: High-pressure pipes have a relatively thinner diameter, usually with red dust covers, and the air nozzle on the pipe has a high-pressure mark "H". High-pressure pipes are generally used for checking air conditioning pressure, and they can also be used to add refrigerant when the air conditioning compressor is not working. 2. Low-pressure pipes are thicker: Low-pressure pipes have a relatively thicker diameter, usually with blue dust covers, and the air nozzle on the pipe has a low-pressure mark "L". It is generally recommended to use low-pressure pipes for adding refrigerant. If adding refrigerant while the air conditioning is on, be sure to turn off the high-pressure switch to prevent accidents, and ensure the refrigerant is in a gaseous state during the process.

Can Car License Plates Be Transferred to Others?

Car license plates cannot be transferred to others. They can only be applied for use on a new vehicle by the original owner after the vehicle is transferred or scrapped. If you want to replace your car and continue using the original license plate, three conditions must be met according to regulations: 1. The original license plate must have been used for more than three years; 2. The application to continue using the original license plate must be submitted within six months after the transfer or cancellation of registration; 3. All traffic violations and accident-related issues involving the original vehicle must be resolved. License plates, commonly known as vehicle tags, refer to the plates hung on the front and rear of a vehicle. They are typically made of aluminum, sheet metal, plastic, or paper, and display the vehicle's registration number, registration region, and other relevant information.

What is the difference between Mobil Gold and Mobil Silver?

There are several differences between Mobil Silver and Mobil Gold: 1. Different properties: Mobil Gold is Mobil 1 top-tier engine oil with a newer formula, belonging to the 6th generation; Mobil Silver belongs to the 5th generation formula with average performance, significantly inferior to Mobil Gold. 2. Different grades: Mobil Silver has viscosity grades of 5w-30, 5w-40, and 5W-50; Mobil Gold only has one viscosity grade of 0W-40. 3. Different quality: Mobil Gold uses Group IV PAO full synthetic base oil, with better anti-wear protection and low-temperature performance in additive formulation compared to Mobil Silver; many grades of Mobil Silver use MSDW hydroisomerized oil, commonly known as Group III+, which is no longer a true full synthetic engine oil.

What Causes the Resonance Hum in the Cab?

The possible causes of resonance hum in the cab are as follows: 1. Whole vehicle resonance caused by the front axle: Excessive unbalance in brake drums or wheel hubs; Out-of-round brake drums. 2. Whole vehicle resonance caused by the rear (middle) axle: Out-of-round brake drums. 3. Whole vehicle resonance caused by engine mounts: Low bracket stiffness with significant elastic deformation; High hardness of mount cushions with large dynamic and static stiffness. 4. Whole vehicle resonance caused by the engine itself: Uneven fuel injection among engine cylinders, leading to incomplete combustion or non-operation in some cylinders; Large manufacturing tolerances of parts, with excessive unbalance in pistons, connecting rods, crankshaft flywheels, etc. 5. Whole vehicle resonance caused by the suspension system: Unreasonable matching of vibration frequencies between front and rear suspensions; Coupling of front spring natural frequency with the frame's inherent frequency.
