Speaking of Toyota's automatic start-stop system, which you referred to as 2nd start, I have quite a bit of experience with it. After driving for so many years, I find it quite annoying every time I encounter it, especially during traffic jams or short stops. To turn it off, look for the button—it's usually located below the steering wheel on the left side or near the instrument panel, often marked with a small green arrow and the words 'A Off.' Press it to disable the system. Note that this feature is designed to save fuel by automatically shutting off and restarting the engine when idle. However, if you frequently drive in the city, turning it off can reduce vibrations and noise, making the ride smoother. Keep in mind that it defaults to 'on' every time you start the car, so you'll need to press the button again to disable it. If you can't find the button, check the manual or ask at the dealership for its location based on your model. Overall, this feature is useful but not for everyone—disabling it can make driving much more comfortable.

Is the flash point of diesel 55 or 60?

Diesel's flash point refers to its combustion limit, which is the temperature at which it begins to ignite when heated under specified conditions and exposed to a flame. Here is relevant information: 1. Diesel: The most important use of diesel is for diesel engines in vehicles and ships. Compared to gasoline, diesel has a higher energy density and lower fuel consumption rate. Due to its low energy consumption, some small cars and even high-performance vehicles have switched to diesel. 2. Flash point level: The flash point of diesel mainly relates to its volatility. The lighter the fraction, the easier it is to evaporate, and the lower the flash point. The lower the flash point of diesel, the more easily it can be ignited by a flame, increasing the risk of fire.
