Is the tire installed backwards if the production date is on the inner side?

The production date being on the inner side of the tire does not necessarily mean it is installed backwards. Directional tires will indicate the installation direction on the tire. Asymmetric tread tires have "inside" and "outside" marked on the sidewall, but if the tread does not appear to be asymmetric and it is not a directional tire, then it is just a regular tire, so the position of the date does not indicate incorrect installation. Below is some additional information related to tire treads: 1. Consequences of incorrect installation: If the tread is installed backwards, it can significantly affect the tire's performance, including noise reduction, grip, handling, and may even cause "tire cupping," greatly reducing the tire's lifespan. 2. Rear-wheel drive tires: Not all vehicles are suitable for asymmetric treads. Some rear-wheel-drive vehicles have a camber design on the rear wheels, leading to severe wear on the inner side of the tire over time. For cost-effectiveness, some may choose to install the tires backwards, which negates the advantages of asymmetric tires. If you suspect your tires are installed backwards, it is recommended to check online whether they are symmetric tires. If they are, simply reversing the inner and outer sides will correct the issue.

How Often Should Motorcycle Spark Plugs Be Replaced?

Motorcycle spark plugs should be replaced every 15,000 kilometers. Methods to determine if a spark plug is damaged: Remove the spark plug and observe its condition based on the following appearance colors. A normal spark plug's insulator skirt and electrodes should appear gray-white, gray-yellow, or light brown. A properly functioning spark plug will have a reddish-brown insulator skirt, with an electrode gap between 0.8-0.9mm and no signs of electrode burn. If the spark plug is covered in oil or deposits but not damaged, it can continue to be used after cleaning off the oil and deposits. If the spark plug is severely damaged, showing signs like blistering at the top, black streaks, cracks, or melted electrodes, the cause of the damage should be identified. After troubleshooting, replace the spark plug with a new one. Additionally, if the spark plug appears black as if smoked, it indicates the wrong heat range was selected or the air-fuel mixture is too rich, with oil creeping up.

How is gasoline engine oil classified?

Gasoline engine oil is classified as follows: 1. Classification according to SAE viscosity grades: Engine oil is classified by SAE viscosity grades, with 6 types for winter, 5 types for summer, and 16 types for all-season use. The 6 winter grades are 0W, 5W, 10W, 15W, 20W, and 25W, where 'W' stands for Winter. The smaller the number before 'W', the better the oil's fluidity at low temperatures, making it suitable for colder environments. The 5 summer grades are 20, 30, 40, 50, and 60. The larger the number, the higher the oil's viscosity and the better its high-temperature protection performance, making it suitable for hotter environments. The 16 all-season grades are 5W20, 5W30, 5W40, 5W50, 10W20, 10W30, 10W40, 10W50, 15W30, 15W40, 15W50, 20W20, 20W30, 20W40, and 20W50. 2. Classification according to API quality grades: API quality grades divide engine oil into S-series and C-series. The S-series denotes gasoline engine oil, while the C-series denotes diesel engine oil. If labeled with both S and C, it indicates the oil is suitable for both gasoline and diesel engines. Each series is ordered alphabetically (A, B, C, D, E, F, etc.), with later letters indicating higher grades and better performance. Current gasoline engine oil grades include SA, SB, SC, SD, SE, SF, SG, SH, SJ, SL, SM, SN, and SP; diesel engine oil grades include CA, CB, CC, CD, CD-II, CE, CF-II, CF-4, CG-4, CH-4, and CI-4.
