The installation of snow chains on the front or rear wheels depends on the vehicle's drive type: 1. For front-wheel drive vehicles, install snow chains on the front wheels; 2. For rear-wheel drive or four-wheel drive vehicles, install snow chains on all four wheels. The installation method for snow chains is as follows: 1. Lay the snow chain flat and centered in front of the tire; 2. Drive the vehicle forward half the length of the snow chain so that the tire's contact point is at the center of the snow chain; 3. Fasten the hooks on the inner side of the tire, then fasten the hooks on the outer side of the tire; 4. Continue moving the vehicle forward to adjust the connection points of the installation force position, and secure the snow chains properly.

Will Water Enter the Engine If the Exhaust Pipe is Submerged?

Water will not enter the engine if the exhaust pipe is submerged. It is recommended to drive at a steady speed in a low gear. The functions of the exhaust pipe are: 1. To expel the exhaust gases produced after engine combustion; 2. To reduce vibration and noise, extending the lifespan of the exhaust muffler system. Precautions for exhaust pipe maintenance include: 1. Close the choke when starting the engine cold in winter and open it promptly after the engine warms up; 2. Avoid installing windshields or decorative items in front of the engine and muffler, as they may affect heat dissipation; 3. Do not drive at low gears with high load for extended periods, as this may damage the engine and muffler; 4. Avoid revving the engine at high speeds while stationary for long durations.

How to Solve High Water Tank Temperature?

If the vehicle is driven on dirt roads or muddy sections for a long time, some dirt will adhere to the radiator, and the generated heat cannot be transferred to the antifreeze in time. Coolant leakage will cause its temperature to rise. At this time, check whether there is any leakage or insufficient coolant.

How to Deal with Odor in Car Air Conditioning?

For mild odors, park the car in the sun, set the air conditioning to the warm air mode, turn it to the maximum setting, and open all doors to allow the dirty air to be expelled from the vehicle. If dirty air is trapped inside, dust and mold may accumulate in the air conditioning system, necessitating the use of an air duct cleaner for thorough cleaning. A heavily soiled air filter not only fails to perform its original function but also causes secondary pollution to the air entering the car. To eliminate odors, it must be replaced.
