What's the Difference Between 95 and 92 Gasoline?

95 and 92 gasoline mainly have the following differences: 1. The biggest difference between 92 and 95 gasoline actually lies in the different proportions of n-heptane and isooctane in the two: 92 gasoline contains 92% isooctane and 8% n-heptane; while 95 gasoline contains 95% isooctane and 5% n-heptane. 2. Due to the different proportions of n-heptane and isooctane in the two types of gasoline, it directly leads to the difference in their anti-knock performance. The gasoline octane rating actually represents the anti-knock performance, with a higher number indicating better anti-knock ability (this is because it contains more octane).

What materials are needed for the transfer of a used car?

For the transfer of a used car, the buyer needs to provide their ID card and a copy, the seller's ID card and a copy, the "Motor Vehicle Registration Certificate," the vehicle license, and the compulsory insurance policy, among other documents. Below are some considerations for the transfer of a used car: Pre-transaction considerations: Before the transaction, check whether the seller's documents are complete. Even if the car is in good condition, incomplete documents render it meaningless. Another crucial point is to check for any traffic violations beforehand and agree on who will bear the costs of clearing them before the transfer. Location for processing: The process of transferring a used car is quite complex, so it is recommended to go to a used car transfer hall. Before starting the transfer process, ensure all required documents are prepared. If any documents are missing, have the original owner complete them. Check for any outstanding traffic violations and clear the violation records. Additionally, when purchasing a used car, review relevant policies and regulations to ensure the vehicle is eligible for sale and transfer to avoid being scammed.

Why can't the vehicle be registered on Traffic Management 12123?

Reasons why Traffic Management 12123 cannot register a vehicle: 1. Information delay: After purchasing a new car, there may be a delay in information synchronization. Generally, you can check the vehicle information on 12123 after waiting about half a month. If the vehicle information still cannot be found and registered after a long time, you need to consult the staff at the vehicle management office for detailed information; 2. The vehicle has already been bound: If the original owner has already bound this vehicle during the second-hand car transaction, you need to ask the original owner to unbind it before you can register it again; 3. The number of people registering the vehicle exceeds the maximum limit: The requirements for vehicle registration on Traffic Management 12123 are: each user can only register 3 cars not under their own name, and the same car can be registered by up to 3 other people besides the owner. If the number of registrations exceeds the requirement, the vehicle cannot be registered.
