95 is gasoline. Simple ways to distinguish between gasoline and diesel: Gasoline has a pungent smell, while diesel has a heavy but stifling odor. In terms of color, gasoline is more watery and thinner than diesel, which has some viscosity. There are 7 types of diesel grades: 10#, 5# diesel, 0# diesel, -10# diesel, -20# diesel, -35# diesel, and -50# diesel. 95 gasoline: It is a type of gasoline composed of 95% isooctane and 3% n-heptane. High-compression engines should use high-octane gasoline. If low-octane gasoline is used in a high-compression engine, it can cause abnormal combustion, leading to knocking, increased fuel consumption, and lack of power. High-compression engines can also use low-grade gasoline, but one should not blindly choose gasoline grades based on compression ratio. Instead, follow the manufacturer's recommendations for fueling.

Should the oil dipstick be checked when the engine is cold or hot?

Oil dipstick can be checked whether the engine is cold or hot, but it is more recommended to check when the engine is cold. Here are the relevant explanations: 1. The difference in oil level between cold and hot engine conditions is generally small, usually only about 2-3 millimeters, which corresponds to a few hundred milliliters of oil, and has little impact on the engine. 2. When the engine is cold, the dipstick shows the total oil capacity of the engine, while when the engine is hot, it shows the amount of oil that meets the lubrication needs of the engine. Generally, if the oil level is above 3/4 of the range between the upper and lower marks when the engine is cold, or above 1/2 of the range when the engine is hot, the oil quantity is sufficient.

Does Tesla Have a Brake Pedal?

Tesla has a brake pedal. Here is the relevant introduction about the brake pedal: 1. The brake pedal, as the name suggests, is the pedal that limits power, i.e., the pedal of the foot brake (service brake), used for deceleration and stopping. It is one of the five major control components in car driving, with very high frequency of use. How the driver controls it directly affects driving safety. 2. The brake pedal is commonly referred to as stepping on the brake. There is a small pedal connected to the brake lever above the brake, hence this pedal is also called the "brake pedal." There is also a small pedal on the clutch, called the clutch pedal. The clutch is on the left, and the brake is on the right (aligned with the accelerator, with the accelerator on the right).

How to Read the Gauge on an Air Conditioning Refrigerant Charging Meter?

Air conditioning refrigerant charging meters display pressure values through gauge readings. The scale on the charging meter indicates pressure, typically representing the compressor's discharge pressure and suction pressure, which help determine whether the system is operating normally and identify faults such as blockages or refrigerant leaks. More details are as follows: 1. Automotive Air Conditioning. It regulates and controls the temperature, humidity, air cleanliness, and airflow inside the vehicle cabin to optimal conditions, providing a comfortable environment for passengers and reducing travel fatigue. It also creates favorable working conditions for the driver, playing a crucial role in ensuring safe driving. Generally, it includes refrigeration units, heating units, and ventilation systems. 2. The compressor in an automotive air conditioning system must withstand harsh operating conditions, demonstrating high reliability and durability. At idle, the engine compartment temperature can reach up to 80°C, resulting in high condensing pressure, which requires the compressor to endure high temperatures, high pressure, and limited overload. Since vehicles are constantly subjected to bumps and vibrations on the road, the compressor must also have excellent shock resistance and minimize refrigerant leakage to the greatest extent.

Will a Fire Extinguisher Explode If Left in a Car?

A fire extinguisher placed inside a car will not explode. Here are some precautions for vehicle fire extinguishers: 1. Purchase fire extinguishers produced by reputable manufacturers to prevent potential accidents from the source. 2. After six months of use, regularly check whether the dry powder has clumped or if the carbon dioxide gas in the storage cylinder has leaked. The method is as follows: the internal pressure indicator on the fire extinguisher is usually divided into three zones—green, yellow, and red. If the pointer is in the green zone, it means the extinguisher can be used normally; if it is in the yellow zone, it indicates the extinguisher is nearing the end of its service life; if the pointer points to the red zone, it means the internal pressure has leaked and the extinguisher cannot be used. 3. Check whether the safety pin of the extinguisher is intact, whether the cylinder is deformed or corroded, and whether the nozzle is clogged with oil or dirt.
