In theory, there should be no issue with having different tires on the front and rear axles as long as their size and performance characteristics are compatible. However, tires from different brands may exhibit slight variations even when all specifications appear identical. Therefore, it's generally recommended to use tires from the same brand when replacing them. Below are some key points about automotive tires: 1. Replacement cycle: Tires should typically be replaced within 3 years or before reaching 60,000 kilometers. 2. Replacement criteria: As tire rubber ages, deep cracks may appear on the sidewalls. However, tires can remain in service as long as the sidewalls haven't suffered impact damage and the internal cords remain intact.

What fuel do diesel locomotives burn?

Diesel locomotives burn diesel fuel. The following is an introduction to diesel engines: 1. Introduction: Diesel locomotives use diesel engines as the primary power source, driving the wheels through a transmission device. 2. Regulations: According to the type of internal combustion engine on the locomotive, the vast majority of engines used on national railways are diesel engines. 3. Impact: The fuel (diesel) burns in the cylinders, converting thermal energy into mechanical energy output by the diesel crankshaft. However, this energy is not used to directly drive the wheels. Instead, it is converted through a transmission device into mechanical energy suitable for the traction characteristics of the locomotive, which then drives the locomotive wheels to rotate on the tracks through the running gear. Diesel locomotives are the most widely used. In China, the term 'diesel locomotive' conventionally refers to diesel-powered locomotives.

What is the general adjustment range for headlight height from 0 to 3?

Headlight height adjustment methods: 1. 0 gear is suitable when the front seats are occupied and the trunk is empty. 2. 1 gear is suitable when the vehicle is fully loaded with passengers and the trunk is empty. 3. 2 gear is suitable when the vehicle is fully loaded with passengers and the trunk is fully loaded. 4. 3 gear is suitable when the vehicle is fully loaded with passengers and the trunk is fully loaded. Additional lighting usage requirements: 1. When visibility is between 200m and 500m, you must turn on the low beam, width lights, and tail lights, and the speed must not exceed 80km/h. The distance between your vehicle and the one in front in the same lane must be more than 150m. 2. When visibility is between 100m and 200m, you must turn on the fog lights, low beam, width lights, and tail lights, and the speed must not exceed 60km/h. The distance between your vehicle and the one in front must be more than 100m. 3. When visibility is between 50m and 100m, you must turn on the fog lights, low beam, width lights, and tail lights, and the speed must not exceed 40km/h.

Where is the Evaporative Emission Control Valve Located?

The location of the evaporative emission control valve varies depending on the vehicle model. It is generally found near the charcoal canister solenoid valve or the intake manifold. 1. Working Principle: Fuel vapor from the fuel tank enters the upper part of the activated charcoal canister through a one-way valve, while air enters from the lower part of the canister to clean the activated charcoal. There are a certain number of small emission holes at the upper right of the canister, along with a vacuum-controlled emission control valve. The vacuum level inside the emission control valve is regulated by the charcoal canister control solenoid valve, which is itself controlled by the engine control unit. 2. Function: It collects fuel vapor from the fuel tank and directs it into the cylinders for combustion, preventing the direct release of fuel vapor into the atmosphere and thus reducing pollution. Additionally, it controls the amount of fuel vapor introduced into the cylinders for combustion based on the engine's operating conditions.

Why is the Vellfire cheaper than the Alphard?

The reason why the Vellfire is cheaper than the Alphard lies in the power output, as the Alphard has a more robust power output compared to the Vellfire. Below is the detailed explanation: 1. Alphard: It is equipped with a 2.5L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 117Ps, a maximum power of 86kW, and a maximum torque of 198N·m, paired with an E-CVT continuously variable transmission. Additionally, it features an electric motor with a maximum horsepower of 211Ps and a maximum power of 155kW. 2. Vellfire: It is equipped with a 2.5L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 117Ps, a maximum power of 86kW, and a maximum torque of 198N·m, paired with an E-CVT continuously variable transmission. In terms of power output, the top-tier version of the Alphard is more powerful than the top-tier version of the Vellfire.

Is It Okay If the Engine Doesn't Stall After Wading Through Water?

If the engine doesn't stall after wading through water, it is generally considered okay. Here is some information about engine stalling: 1. Introduction: When a reactor is operating at a significant reaction rate, if the inlet feed temperature is reduced to the lower limit of the multiple steady-state region, the reaction rate will suddenly drop sharply, and the reaction will basically stop. 2. Phenomenon: This phenomenon is called "extinction" or "stalling." The corresponding inlet temperature is called the extinction point. In general, it refers to car stalling. 3. Precautions: For beginners, stalling midway is not a new topic. The main troubleshooting method is to improve driving skills through rapid running-in. Use high-grade, high-quality, and qualified fuel.
