Medium-sized and larger passenger vehicles, as well as hazardous goods transport vehicles, must be equipped with fire extinguishers. Below are specific details about car fire extinguishers: 1. Choose a dry powder or water-based fire extinguisher: When purchasing a car fire extinguisher, opt for one weighing 1-3 kilograms. Given the less-than-ideal storage conditions inside the car, dry powder or water-based fire extinguishers are recommended. 2. Usage guidelines: Before use, thoroughly shake the extinguisher several times to loosen the dry powder inside. Remove the safety pin, hold the nozzle (or the base of the canister for tube-less extinguishers), and aim the nozzle at the base of the flames. Press the handle firmly to release the dry powder from the nozzle for fire suppression.

Should You Add Water or Coolant to the Car Radiator?

You should add coolant to the car radiator. Coolant is a year-round liquid that is not affected by seasons, ensuring high quality and performance. Although using water as a substitute for coolant can cause some damage to the cooling system, short-term use will not harm the thermostat or clog the cooling system. Using water instead of antifreeze is only an emergency measure, and coolant should be used whenever possible. The full name of coolant is antifreeze coolant, meaning it has antifreeze properties. It prevents the coolant from freezing in cold weather, which could otherwise cause the radiator to crack or damage the engine cylinder block.

How to Replace Transmission Oil for Buick GL8?

Buick GL8 transmission oil replacement methods: 1. Gravity replacement: The method is similar to engine oil replacement. After loosening the tightening nut at the bottom of the oil pan, the transmission oil will automatically flow out from the drain hole, and then it can be replaced. This operation is simple but cannot completely drain the transmission oil. In the grooves and depressions of the machinery, transmission oil often cannot be discharged. 2. Circulating machine replacement: Store the new transmission oil inside the circulating machine, then connect the machine's pipes to the transmission oil lines. Under hydraulic pressure, the new oil will push out the old oil, which cleans the oil lines more thoroughly. The more new transmission oil is used, the cleaner the oil lines will be. Replacing transmission oil with a circulating machine requires approximately 10 liters of oil and takes about an hour. 3. Removing the oil pan for oil replacement: This method can clean the oil filter and flush the oil pan, solving the problem at its root.
