It is not necessary to use 95-octane gasoline for the Bora. The Bora can run on 92-octane gasoline, and the fuel grade suitable for the vehicle is listed on the label inside the fuel tank cover. The gasoline grade represents the octane rating of the gasoline. For example, 92-octane gasoline consists of approximately 92% isooctane and 8% n-heptane. Since isooctane has better anti-knock properties and n-heptane has poorer anti-knock properties, a higher octane rating indicates better anti-knock performance of the gasoline. The gasoline grade has no relation to the cleanliness of the fuel. Therefore, refueling according to the engine's compression ratio or the requirements specified in the vehicle's user manual is more scientific and economical, and it allows the engine to perform at its best efficiency. If you have mixed different gasoline grades, you can remove the fuel tank, drain all the fuel, including the fuel in the fuel pump. Then, clean the fuel tank, fuel lines, combustion chamber, and replace the fuel filter. Finally, refill with the required gasoline to avoid any harm to the vehicle.

How to Check Coolant Level?

Turn off the vehicle and wait for the coolant to cool down, then open the engine hood to inspect. Below are the relevant steps for checking: 1. Remove the radiator cap: Confirm whether the engine coolant level is near the top of the radiator filler neck. If the engine coolant level is too low, add engine coolant. If the engine and radiator are still hot, do not remove the radiator cap, as high-pressure steam may be released, causing burns. 2. Inspect the engine coolant passage: Check around the radiator cap and radiator filler neck. If there is significant rust or scale deposits, remove the engine cover to clean the coolant passage and replace the coolant. 3. Check if the coolant level in the reservoir is between MAX (upper limit) and MIN (lower limit): If the engine coolant level is too low, check for leaks and add coolant to a level between the upper and lower limits. Do not use pure water as a substitute for engine coolant.

What does the motor vehicle inspection include?

Driving license annual inspection includes the following items: 1. Violation records: Road traffic safety violations and accident handling status. 2. Physical condition: Whether the physical condition is healthy. 3. Point accumulation: Road traffic safety violation points and participation in study and examination after accumulating 12 points. The following are the detailed contents of the vehicle annual inspection: 1. Check whether the engine, chassis, body and its accessories are clean, complete and effective, whether the paint surface is uniform and beautiful, whether the main assemblies have been replaced, and whether they match the initial inspection records. 2. Verify whether the vehicle's braking performance, steering control, lights, exhaust and other safety performance meet the "Technical Requirements for Safe Operation of Motor Vehicles". 3. Check whether the vehicle has been modified, remodeled, or transformed, and whether the driving license, license plate, and all vehicle file registrations match the current vehicle condition, whether there are any changes, and whether approval and change procedures have been completed. 4. Check whether the license plate, driving license, and enlarged license plate characters sprayed on the vehicle are damaged, altered, or unclear, and whether they need to be replaced.

Why is the used Lynk & Co 05 so cheap?

As a premium brand under Geely with Volvo technology support, Lynk & Co is still a domestic brand after all. Compared to joint-venture brands, domestic brands are indeed relatively weaker, which affects their resale value. Another factor is the pricing—there might have been little to no discounts when purchasing new, thereby impacting its price. Additional content: 1. Disadvantages of Lynk & Co 05: The throttle is overly sensitive in sport mode, noise insulation is subpar, and while the trunk has decent depth, its length is insufficient. 2. Advantages of Lynk & Co 05: Ample power reserves, smooth transmission, and rich smart connectivity features.

How to Read the Gauge on a Car Air Pump?

When inflating, simply look at the numbers on the pressure gauge. Below is relevant information about car air pumps: 1. Introduction: A car air pump, also known as an inflator or air compressor, operates by the rotation of an internal motor. The working principle is that when the motor runs to pump air, the valve of the connecting pipe is pushed open by atmospheric pressure, allowing air to enter the cylinder. When inflating the tire, the valve is closed by the pressure inside the cylinder, directing the air into the tire. 2. Product Features: Equipped with a direct-drive powerful motor, it operates without gear friction noise, completing inflation in a short time. The steel-built machine offers ultra-strong pressure and durability, ensuring continuous inflation. It features a stainless steel airtight valve for high-quality air output and comes with a complete set of inflation nozzles, suitable for tires, rubber boats, air mattresses, sports balls, and other various inflation purposes.

What to Do When It Rains During Subject 2 Driving Test?

Subject 2, also known as the small road test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment and refers to the field driving skill test. For small vehicles C1 and C2, the test items include five mandatory components: reversing into a garage, parallel parking, stopping and starting on a slope, turning at a right angle, and curve driving (commonly known as S-curve). Below is an introduction to other test subjects: 1. Subject 1: Also known as the theoretical test or driver's theory test, it is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. The test content includes driving theory basics, road safety laws and regulations, local regulations, and related knowledge. The test format is computer-based. 2. Subject 3: Includes the road driving skill test and the safe and civilized driving knowledge test. It is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment and is the abbreviation for the road driving skill and safe and civilized driving knowledge test in the motor vehicle driver's test. The content of the road driving skill test varies depending on the type of vehicle. 3. Subject 4: Also known as the theoretical test or driver's theory test, it is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. The Subject 3 test is divided into two parts: besides the road test, there is an additional safe and civilized driving knowledge test, commonly known as 'Subject 4,' which evaluates 'driving ethics.' The test paper consists of 50 questions, mainly in the form of cases, pictures, and animations, with a full score of 100 and a passing score of 90.

Should the Tire Valve Stem Be Replaced?

You can choose different valve stems when replacing tires, and it is not necessary to replace them separately. Here are specific details about valve stems: 1. Rubber Valve Stems: Due to the unavoidable aging issue of rubber material, the valve stem body will gradually crack, deform, and lose elasticity. When the vehicle is in motion, the rubber valve stem will also swing back and forth with centrifugal force, causing deformation, which further accelerates the aging of the rubber. Generally, the lifespan of a rubber valve stem is 3-4 years, similar to that of a tire. Therefore, it is advisable to replace the rubber valve stem when replacing the tire. 2. Metal Valve Stems: To avoid the aging problem of rubber valve stems, metal valve stems have gradually appeared on the market, with steel valve stems being one of them. Due to the change in material, the price of steel valve stems is significantly higher than that of rubber valve stems. The lifespan of steel valve stems is two to three times that of rubber valve stems, mainly because the metal material is less prone to oxidation. Additionally, metal valve stems offer superior airtightness.
