Detailed explanations regarding the issue of car generators stalling shortly after startup are as follows: 1. Reasons for generator stalling shortly after startup. First, no fuel; second, fuel line blockage; third, excessive engine temperature; fourth, excessive load. If the machine hasn't been in use for long or isn't very old, replacing the spark plug and carburetor may help. For older machines, piston ring replacement might be necessary. 2. Composition and function of the generator. Gasoline generators are typically composed of components such as the stator, rotor, end cover, and bearings. The engine is a machine that converts chemical energy into mechanical energy. The conversion process of the generator is essentially the working cycle process, which involves burning fuel in the cylinder to generate kinetic energy, driving the piston in the engine cylinder to reciprocate. This, in turn, drives the connecting rod attached to the piston and the crankshaft connected to the connecting rod to perform reciprocating circular motions around the center of the crankshaft, thereby outputting power.

I've encountered many similar issues with generators. The engine stalls after running for a while, which is usually caused by fuel supply problems. Possible reasons include clogged fuel lines, a malfunctioning fuel pump, or a dirty carburetor affecting the air-fuel mixture. If the fuel filter isn't replaced regularly, accumulated dust can block it, leading to insufficient fuel supply and stalling. An idle speed set too low can also cause this - the idle adjustment screw needs to be set to the proper position. For units left unused for long periods, aging fuel lines or poor fuel suction are common causes. Always use fresh gasoline and avoid storing fuel too long to minimize impurities. Regular maintenance should include cleaning the fuel system - I often advise users to inspect their fuel lines every few months. If the problem persists, have a professional check whether the carburetor is damaged. Never overlook fuel quality - using substandard gasoline accelerates component failure.

Can a new car be registered if the old car has unresolved traffic violations?

If the old car is still in use and the license plate remains unchanged, a new car can be registered with new plates. According to the "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations" issued by the Ministry of Public Security, during the initial registration of a vehicle, there is no requirement that the owner must resolve all traffic violations from previously owned vehicles. Unresolved traffic violations are only associated with the vehicle itself and do not specify the exact violation until the violation is processed, at which point the specific driver responsible for the violation will be identified. Violation Handling Process: Investigation and evidence collection, notification of the penalty, reasons, basis, and related rights, hearing statements, defenses, or holding hearings, and making a penalty decision. Vehicle: Refers to both motorized and non-motorized vehicles.

What Are the Grades of Full Synthetic Engine Oil?

Currently, the main grade is SN. The API on engine oil stands for the American Petroleum Institute, and it is divided into grades SA, SB, SC, SD, SE, SF, SG, SH, SJ, SL, SM, and SN. Below are the specific details: Engine Oil: The primary functions are lubrication, cleaning, and rust prevention. The ultimate goal is to extend the engine's lifespan. Generally, higher-grade engine oils provide better protection for the engine, so the price of the oil is proportional to its effectiveness. Full Synthetic Oil: It can operate over a wider temperature range and has a longer service life. Under the same oil film requirements, synthetic oil can achieve the desired performance with a lower viscosity.
