Modern automobile engines are designed with high precision, reducing environmental pollution and improving fuel combustion efficiency. However, this also significantly increases the requirements for engine oil, oil additives, and the cleanliness of the engine itself. Over time, harmful substances such as carbon deposits and sludge accumulate inside the engine. These deposits can lead to increased fuel consumption, reduced power output, and failure to meet the precise clearance requirements of the engine. In severe cases, they may even cause engine damage. Cleaning the engine offers the following benefits: 1. Remove Carbon Deposits: Effectively cleans internal engine carbon deposits, sludge, and other harmful substances. 2. Neutralize Acidic Substances: Neutralizes long-term harmful acidic substances generated inside the engine and cleans the crankcase PVC valve. 3. Eliminate Sludge: Cleans valve lifters and hydraulic lifters, prevents mixing of old and new oil, and removes sludge and oil films formed by old oil to avoid degrading the performance of new oil. 4. Improve Engine Performance: Reduces noise and decreases fuel and oil consumption. 5. Clean the Engine Lubrication System: Enhances oil fluidity, lowers engine temperature, improves lubrication efficiency, and prevents oil burning in the engine.

I've always loved driving, and after cleaning the engine, I feel the response is much quicker. With carbon deposits removed, combustion is more efficient, horsepower increases, and climbing hills becomes easier. Fuel consumption has also dropped—my car went from 8L/100km to 7.5, saving me a lot on gas money over a year. The key is that engine noise has reduced, making driving more comfortable. Regular cleaning also prevents corrosion, extends the engine's lifespan, and avoids major repairs. I recommend combining it with routine maintenance, such as cleaning when changing the engine oil.

How to Use a Car Rearview Camera?

Method for using a car rearview camera: The rearview camera mainly displays three lines—red, yellow, and green. The front line is red, the middle line is yellow, and the rear line is green. Stop immediately if the red line indicates 30cm; be cautious when the yellow line shows a distance of about 0.7 meters, and gently release the brake while reversing; the green line indicates a distance of approximately 2 meters, meaning the car is far from obstacles, allowing you to turn around or continue reversing. A car rearview camera is a system that provides intuitive and clear rearview images, offering great convenience to drivers. It enables real-time monitoring of the areas on both sides and behind the car, helping to prevent accidents and theft.

What are the displacement requirements for motorcycles on highways?

There are no displacement requirements for motorcycles on highways, as long as their speed can reach 60 km/h. Article 67 of the Road Traffic Safety Law stipulates that pedestrians, non-motorized vehicles, tractors, wheeled special-purpose machinery vehicles, articulated buses, full-trailer towed vehicles, and motor vehicles with a designed maximum speed of less than 60 km/h are not allowed to enter highways. Precautions for motorcycles on highways: 1. To ride a motorcycle on the highway, you must hold a valid driver's license, motor vehicle registration certificate, compulsory traffic insurance card, or policy; 2. When passing through the toll station, you must obtain a highway toll card. Do not force your way through the barrier. If you forcibly enter the highway and are stopped by highway administration personnel midway, you will be charged double the toll from the farthest station; 3. Always wear a helmet and protective gear, and ensure that side bags and tools are securely fastened.

How to Test a Car Thermostat?

Methods for testing a car thermostat: When the temperature gauge indicates between 70 to 80 degrees, open the radiator cap and the radiator drain valve, then check if there is coolant flow at the radiator inlet pipe. If the water temperature at the radiator filler port is low and there is no water flow or the flow is slow at the upper radiator inlet pipe, it indicates a thermostat malfunction. Methods for testing the thermostat: 1. Check the opening temperature of the thermostat valve: The thermostat is installed at the outlet of the engine water jacket. Remove the thermostat and immerse it in water, gradually heating the water to check the opening temperature of the main thermostat valve. If the opening temperature does not meet the requirements or the valve does not close tightly at room temperature, replace the thermostat. 2. Check the valve lift of the thermostat: When the water temperature is heated to 93 degrees, the valve lift should be greater than 8.5mm. If the valve lift does not meet the specified value, replace the thermostat.
