There is no fixed rule on whether to turn the steering wheel half a turn or a full turn; it depends on the situation. When reversing the vehicle to the right, you can observe the distance between the right rear wheel and the corner of the parking space through the right rearview mirror, maintaining a distance of about 30cm between them. If the distance between the wheel and the corner is less than 30cm, you can adjust by turning the steering wheel slightly to maintain the 30cm distance. Additional Information: 1. Reversing into a Parking Space: Reversing into a parking space has been a mandatory test item for obtaining a small car driver's license since 2013. It assesses the driver's ability to maneuver the vehicle in a confined space. Reversing into a parking space is one of the evaluation points in the driver's test, which involves correctly reversing the vehicle into the parking space from both sides while in motion. 2. Dimensions: The test area is 16M in length and 6.83M in width. The parking space is 5.25M in length and 2.31M in width.

What Causes the Engine to Make a Chugging Sound?

The reasons for the engine making a chugging sound are: 1. The car engine is misfiring or knocking; 2. Abnormal operation of the spark plugs and ignition wires; 3. Poor sealing of individual valves, causing severe air leakage; 4. Carbon deposits between the valve seat and the valve. The functions of the engine are: 1. Fully burning the fuel injected into the cylinders to generate power; 2. Determining the vehicle's power, fuel efficiency, stability, and environmental friendliness. The maintenance methods for the engine include: 1. Using qualified engine oil; 2. Using qualified coolant and antifreeze; 3. Regularly cleaning the radiator scale; 4. Regularly removing carbon deposits from the engine; 5. Regularly replacing the car's three filters; 6. Maintaining a reasonable engine speed.

What is the normal tire pressure for SUVs in summer?

SUV tire pressure in summer is generally between 2.3-2.4 bar. The normal tire pressure range for cars is 2.4-2.5 bar. Due to seasonal factors, winter tire pressure can be appropriately increased by 0.2 bar, while summer tire pressure can be reduced by 0.1 bar. This data is based on the international GBT2978-2008 standard requirements. Generally speaking, tire pressure exceeding 2.8 bar is considered too high, while tire pressure below 2.0 bar is considered too low. The hazards of excessive tire pressure: Reduced tire friction and adhesion, affecting braking performance; Causes steering wheel vibration and deviation, reducing driving comfort; Accelerates uneven wear on the central tread pattern, shortening tire lifespan; Increases vehicle vibration, indirectly affecting the lifespan of other components; Overextends tire cords, reducing elasticity and increasing the load on the vehicle during driving. The hazards of insufficient tire pressure: Increases friction coefficient with the road surface, raising fuel consumption; Makes steering heavy and prone to deviation, compromising driving safety; Increases movement in various tire parts, causing abnormal heat due to excessive rolling; Weakens cord and rubber functionality, leading to delamination or cord breakage and excessive friction with the rim, damaging the bead area and causing abnormal wear; Multiplies friction with the ground, sharply increasing tire temperature, softening the tire, and drastically reducing strength. High-speed driving may result in tire blowouts.

What are the Design and Construction Standards for Automotive Fuel and Gas Stations?

According to the provisions of "GB50156-2002 Design and Construction Standards for Automotive Fuel and Gas Stations," the safety distance between a gas station and important surrounding public buildings is 50 meters. For secondary stations, the safety distances to surrounding civil buildings are categorized as follows: Class I - 20 meters, Class II - 16 meters, and Class III - 12 meters. Below is a detailed introduction: 1. First-class station: Refers to those with an oil tank capacity of 120 cubic meters or more, or visually identifiable, typically with 8 or more fuel dispensers. 2. Secondary station: Usually equipped with 6 fuel dispensers. 3. Third-class station: Generally has between 2 to 6 fuel dispensers.
