There are several methods to remove asphalt stains from a car, which include: 1. Apply car wax. The oil content in the wax can dissolve the tar in the asphalt. By repeatedly applying car wax, the asphalt tar adhering to the car body can be removed. 2. Use a "Tar Remover." Spray it evenly on the areas with asphalt and wipe with a cleaning cloth. This can quickly penetrate, dissolve, and remove stubborn stains like tar, asphalt, and bird droppings from the car. However, this cleaner is somewhat corrosive, so remember to rinse thoroughly after use. Additional Information: Once a car gets stained with asphalt, the body can look as unsightly as pockmarks. Waxing becomes difficult to polish and won’t shine, as asphalt is a highly adhesive substance.

What does the B-pillar of a car refer to?

The B-pillar of a car refers to the vertical pillar between the driver's side window glass and the rear side window glass. Here is some relevant information about the B-pillar: 1. Introduction: The B-pillar, also known as the center pillar, is located between the front door and the rear door. 2. Function: It bears the pressure from both the roof and the front and rear doors. Additionally, some additional components, such as the front seat belts, are installed inside the B-pillar. To better achieve force transmission, the B-pillar is often designed to protrude outward. The challenge with the B-pillar is to strike a balance between stiffness and weight. 3. Role: Generally, there are three vertical pillars on either side of the front windshield and the front and rear doors, arranged from front to back as the A-pillar, B-pillar, and C-pillar. Besides serving as part of the door frame, their primary function is to provide structural support.

What does the motorcycle license theory test cover?

According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses", the theoretical test for a motorcycle license includes knowledge such as driving theory fundamentals, road safety laws and regulations, and local regulations. The test is conducted on a computer, consisting of 100 questions, with a passing score of 90 or above. Introduction to motorcycle licenses: 1. Types: Motorcycle licenses are categorized into D, E, and F classes. Motorcycles come in two-wheeled and three-wheeled varieties. In addition to directly applying for an initial two-wheeled or three-wheeled motorcycle license, one can also apply for an additional two-wheeled or three-wheeled motorcycle license. 2. Additional License: An additional license means the vehicle owner already has a C-class license and applies for a motorcycle license, resulting in notations like C1D on the driver's license. However, one must have at least one year of driving experience to apply for an additional license, and all three test subjects must be retaken for the additional license.

What is the torque range for hand-tightening screws?

The maximum torque range for a normal human hand is 60N—120N. Below are the extensions for using a wrench torque: 1. Select an appropriate range: When using a torque wrench, first select a torque wrench with a suitable range based on the requirements of the workpiece being measured. The measured torque value should not be less than 20% of the wrench's range during use. A too-large range is not suitable for reinforcing small torque components, and a small-range torque wrench should never exceed its range. 2. Pre-use inspection: Before using the torque wrench, first connect the square drive of the wrench to the auxiliary accessories to ensure the connection is secure. Before applying torque, set the required force value and lock the tightening device. Adjust the direction switch to the tightening direction, then quickly operate the wrench 5-6 times in succession to allow the special lubricant inside the wrench components to fully lubricate, ensuring the torque wrench is more accurate and durable. 3. Control the range: During measurement, hold the handle within its effective range and apply force slowly in the direction perpendicular to the torque wrench's housing until you hear a "click" sound from the torque wrench. This indicates that the torque wrench has reached the preset torque value, and the workpiece has been adequately tightened. Immediately release the force afterward to avoid damaging other components.

How to Test for Car Battery Leakage?

For simple internal leakage, only a battery testing instrument can be used. If internal leakage is suspected, a milliammeter should be connected in series in the load circuit to test for any significant current under static conditions. In fact, the simplest method is to disconnect the connections, measure the voltage, record the voltage and measurement time, and then check every two hours. After about ten hours, observe whether the voltage drop is within the normal range. If not, it indicates a battery problem. Here are some precautions for using car batteries: 1. Always remember to turn off the lights: For example, forgetting to turn off the lights during the day, especially the headlights. Some beginners may turn on the car lights while playing with the car during the day and forget to turn them off after shutting down the engine. Over time, the battery power will be depleted. Also, listening to music or using the air conditioning when the car is not started can drain the battery over time. 2. Pay attention to maintenance: To prevent the car battery from running out of power, proper maintenance is essential. First, avoid frequently starting the car. Cars have a lifespan, and repeatedly starting them will cause wear and tear. If the car doesn't start the first time, wait a moment before trying again. Continuously attempting to start the car puts significant pressure on it, increases discharge, and gradually reduces the battery's lifespan.
