One temporary vehicle license plate should be affixed to the lower left or right corner of the front windshield inside the vehicle, ensuring it does not obstruct the driver's view. The other plate should be affixed to the lower left corner of the rear windshield inside the vehicle. Below are the conditions for applying for temporary license plates: 1. When driving the vehicle from the place of purchase to another location, you need to apply for a temporary license plate at the vehicle management office in the purchase location. 2. If the vehicle is being transferred and the official license plate has been surrendered, you need to apply for a temporary license plate at the local vehicle management office to drive back to your home location. 3. For new vehicles in the local area that have not yet obtained an official license plate and need to be driven to another location for modifications, you must apply for a temporary license plate locally. After modifications are completed, apply for a temporary license plate at the modification location to drive back to the original area.

I remember when I got my temporary license plate for the first time, the salesperson explained the placement in detail: it must be placed in the lower right corner inside the front windshield and the lower left corner of the rear windshield, making sure it's visible and not obstructed. I secured it firmly with transparent tape and drove for a week without any issues. Never place it on the car door or seat, otherwise, if caught by traffic police, you could face fines and delays. It's recommended to fix it properly as soon as you buy a new car and check it before hitting the road to avoid any mishaps.

Is the Environmental Protection Label Still Required?

Environmental protection labels are no longer required. Below is a partial introduction to emission standards: 1. Definition: These are national regulations that set limits on the concentration or total amount of pollutants discharged into the environment by artificial pollution sources. General pollutant emission standards specify the allowable discharge amounts for various pollutants that are widespread or particularly harmful within a certain area (nationwide or regional), applicable to all industries. Some general emission standards specify allowable discharge amounts based on different discharge directions (e.g., water pollutants discharged into sewers, rivers, lakes, or seas). 2. Overview: Emission standards refer to the harmful gases discharged from vehicle exhaust, including carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides, particulate matter, soot, etc. 3. Reason: On July 25, 2016, the Ministry of Environmental Protection, the Ministry of Public Security, and the National Certification and Accreditation Administration jointly issued the "Notice on Further Standardizing Emission Inspections and Strengthening Environmental Supervision and Management of Motor Vehicles" (National Environmental Regulation Atmosphere [2016] No. 2), which clearly states that "environmental protection departments will no longer issue motor vehicle environmental protection inspection compliance labels."

What principle does the engine adopt?

Engine working principle is the conversion of internal energy into mechanical energy. Here are the related introductions: 1. The meaning of engine: Engine (Engine) is a machine that can convert other forms of energy into mechanical energy, including internal combustion engines (reciprocating piston engines), external combustion engines (Stirling engines, steam engines, etc.), jet engines, electric motors, etc. For example, internal combustion engines usually convert chemical energy into mechanical energy. 2. The meaning of external combustion engine: That is to say, its fuel burns outside the engine, and the engine converts the heat energy generated by this combustion into kinetic energy. 3. The meaning of internal combustion engine: Internal combustion engine, also known as reciprocating piston engine, differs from external combustion engines in that its fuel burns inside it. There are many types of internal combustion engines, with common gasoline engines and diesel engines being typical examples.

Where is the car air conditioning condenser located?

In front of the engine, right behind the front grille where the wind hits (except for rear-engine vehicles). The car air conditioning condenser is typically installed at the very front of the vehicle to utilize the incoming wind while driving to cool the refrigerant in the pipelines. Here is some related information: 1. Meaning of the condenser: The condenser, also known as the outdoor heat exchanger, is the high-pressure component in the system during cooling (or the low-pressure component in heating mode for heat pump types). It is located between the compressor discharge port and the throttling device (capillary tube or electronic expansion valve). It receives the high-temperature, high-pressure gas (Freon) discharged from the air conditioning compressor. 2. Operation of the condenser: The refrigerant enters the condenser, where it is cooled through copper tubes and aluminum fins. The air conditioner is equipped with an axial-flow cooling fan, using air cooling to ensure the refrigerant condenses while maintaining constant pressure, lowering the temperature, and transforming from gas to liquid. The process of refrigerant change in the condenser can theoretically be considered an isothermal process. 3. Functions of the condenser: (1) The air removes the superheated portion of the high-temperature refrigerant gas delivered by the compressor, turning it into dry saturated vapor. (2) It liquefies the refrigerant while maintaining a constant saturation temperature. (3) When the air temperature is lower than the condensation temperature, it further cools the liquefied refrigerant to match the surrounding air temperature, serving a cooling function.

Can I go to the DMV to register my car on a rainy day?

Vehicles exempt from inspection can be registered normally on light rainy days. However, vehicles requiring inspection cannot be registered on rainy days because the inspection line cannot get wet. Car registration process: 1. Obtain the vehicle certificate of conformity: The vehicle certificate of conformity is very important as it is the main document for vehicle registration. Currently, some car 4S stores delay issuing the certificate of conformity, which may postpone the registration. 2. Keep the triplicate purchase invoice: After purchasing the car, the 4S store will issue a triplicate purchase invoice. Be sure to keep it safe as it will be needed for subsequent registration procedures. 3. Pay the vehicle purchase tax and obtain the tax certificates: After purchasing the vehicle, pay the vehicle purchase tax as soon as possible. Once the tax is paid, you will receive the original and duplicate tax certificates. Keep them safe. 4. Register and inspect the vehicle at the DMV: With all the documents ready, you can go to the DMV to apply for a license plate. First, a specialized traffic police officer will inspect the vehicle, mainly checking the vehicle identification code, vehicle appearance, and warning triangle plate. Prepare these in advance. 5. Choose the vehicle license plate number: After the vehicle inspection, you can go to the DMV hall to choose a license plate number. Generally, there are two options: self-selection or random selection. You can choose either method.

What Are the Importance of Tire Pressure Monitoring?

The importance of tire pressure monitoring is as follows: 1. Tire Leakage: It promptly alerts you in case of rapid or slow leaks caused by tire punctures, allowing you to stop and change to a spare tire in time, and find a nearby tire shop for repairs. 2. Tire Overheating: When unbalanced friction due to reasons like loose tires causes the tire temperature to rise, it will issue an alarm when reaching 70℃, prompting you to take measures to prevent a blowout. 3. Underinflation: If the tire pressure falls below the set limit due to prolonged lack of inflation, it will alert you to prevent low pressure from causing a temperature rise and subsequent blowout. Driving with underinflated tires also reduces tire lifespan. When tire pressure is 30% below the standard value, tire life decreases by 45%. 4. Fuel Efficiency: The tire pressure monitoring system can also save fuel: maintaining standard tire pressure reduces vehicle fuel consumption. Insufficient tire pressure increases fuel usage. Experimental data shows that when tire pressure is 30% below the standard value, fuel consumption rises by 10%.

Why does a motorcycle's exhaust pipe keep backfiring?

Motorcycle exhaust pipe "backfiring" is caused by secondary combustion of gasoline. The specific reasons for gasoline secondary combustion are as follows: 1. Unreasonable air-fuel mixture ratio: If the air-fuel mixture is too rich or too lean, it may cause incomplete combustion of gasoline in the cylinder, leading to re-ignition and continued combustion in the exhaust pipe, resulting in backfiring. 2. Ignition system issues: If backfiring occurs during acceleration, it is often due to ignition system problems. A four-stroke internal combustion engine theoretically needs to ignite once every two revolutions. 3. Excessive impurities in gasoline: Poor fuel quality, such as excessive water or other impurities, can cause incomplete combustion. 4. Weather conditions: In winter, it may be difficult to start the engine, requiring multiple attempts, during which a lot of gasoline may have already spread into the exhaust pipe. This can lead to accumulated fuel in the exhaust pipe, causing backfiring.
