Both fuel-injected and direct-injected engines use PEA. The following are the differences between PIBA and PEA: 1. Composition: Fuel additives with polyisobutylene amine (PIBA) as the main component focus on cleaning carbon deposits in the fuel system, injectors, and intake valves. However, they cannot effectively remove carbon deposits formed under high temperatures. They are only suitable for port fuel injection engines using unleaded gasoline and should not be used in direct-injection engines. 2. Cleaning performance: If the engine uses ethanol gasoline with a lower ignition point, it may wash carbon deposits from the fuel system into the combustion chamber, thereby increasing carbon buildup in the cylinder. Therefore, fuel additives with polyisobutylene amine (PIBA) as the main component can be considered as maintenance-type fuel additives.

How to Check if Car Headlights Are Original Equipment?

Methods to check if car headlights are original equipment: 1. Inferior headlights have poor reflectors, resulting in scattered and irregular light output; 2. Original equipment headlights feature deeply and evenly engraved markings, whereas non-original ones exhibit rough craftsmanship with more burrs on edges and inferior fitment compared to genuine parts. Car headlights, also known as automotive front lamps or LED daytime running lights, require the following maintenance: 1. Regularly inspect the headlight seals and replace damaged gaskets between the lens and reflector promptly; 2. Clean the reflector periodically and replace it if it turns black or light output diminishes; 3. Regularly remove dust and stains from the bulbs.

Will the 11th-generation Civic's ground clearance increase?

The 11th-generation Civic's ground clearance will increase. Ground clearance notes: Active suspension can adjust the vehicle's ground clearance, while semi-active suspension typically adjusts the damping force of the shock absorbers. Based on road conditions, such as encountering potholes that cause the vehicle to bounce violently, the system can actively increase the maximum ground clearance to prevent the chassis from making contact with the ground. Chassis introduction: The chassis refers to the combination of the transmission system, running gear, steering system, and braking system in a vehicle. It supports and mounts the engine and other components/assemblies, forming the vehicle's overall structure, bearing engine power, and ensuring normal operation. The chassis consists of four parts: transmission system, running gear, steering system, and braking system. It forms the vehicle's overall structure, receives engine power to generate motion, and ensures normal driving.

What Does Front-Wheel Drive and Rear-Wheel Drive Mean in Cars?

Front-wheel drive and rear-wheel drive in cars refer to: 1. Front-wheel drive means the engine is placed at the front of the car and drives the front wheels, which in turn propel the entire vehicle; 2. Rear-wheel drive means the rear wheels drive the entire vehicle. Methods to distinguish between front-wheel drive and rear-wheel drive cars are: 1. Check if there is a differential on the rear axle—if there is no differential, it is a front-wheel drive car; 2. If there is a differential on the rear axle, it is a rear-wheel drive car. Characteristics of rear-wheel drive include: 1. Improved balance and handling of the car; 2. Easier maintenance; 3. Insufficient traction; 4. Power generated by the engine is transmitted to the rear axle via the driveshaft, resulting in some power loss.
