Precautions for changing car engine oil are as follows: 1. The selection of engine oil should be based on the requirements of the engine. It is unnecessary to use excessively high-grade oil in engines with lower requirements, nor should lower-grade oil be used in engines with higher requirements. 2. Multi-grade oil should be preferred as it has a longer lifespan, is more efficient, and provides better protection for the engine. During use, phenomena such as premature darkening or lower oil pressure compared to regular oil may occur, which are normal. 3. If the engine is in good condition and the seasonal temperature is low, it is advisable to use oil with lower viscosity to ensure smooth oil flow. In high-temperature seasons or when the engine is severely worn, using high-viscosity oil helps in forming an oil film and reducing engine wear.

What is the normal voltage for a motorcycle?

Each battery cell in a motorcycle's battery has a voltage of 12V. During the charging process, the charging voltage is generally considered normal between 13.5-14.5V. Method to check voltage: Turn off the ignition switch and measure the voltage between the terminals. If it shows 12.5V or higher, the battery is normal. If the voltage is below 12.5V, investigate the cause. Precautions: During the charging process of a motorcycle, the charging current should not be too large. It is recommended that owners avoid using fast charging. When charging, use half of the rated charging current and double the rated charging time. For non-sealed batteries, it is necessary to open the vent caps and charge in a well-ventilated environment, while also keeping away from any fire sources to prevent accidents caused by hydrogen gas generated during charging.

Does Unchanged Car Insurance Equal No Insurance?

Unchanged car insurance is equivalent to having no insurance. Differences: When insurance is not transferred, it does not belong to the new owner. If a traffic accident occurs after a used car transaction, the owner may be denied compensation when filing a claim with the insurance company. Transfer Methods: Currently, there are two common ways to transfer vehicle insurance: applying for cancellation, which means canceling the original vehicle insurance and then obtaining a new vehicle insurance policy. The second method involves making some modifications to the original policy elements, primarily changing the insured and the owner. This requires specifying in the vehicle sales contract that the original owner must bring the policy and the vehicle transfer certificate to the original insurance company's sales outlet for processing; otherwise, the original owner will bear the consequences.

Will crossing the solid line for a lane change definitely be captured?

Crossing the solid line for a lane change may not necessarily be captured. Photography principle: When the front wheels of the vehicle press over the induction coil on the ground, the electronic device captures the first photo; when the rear wheels press over the induction coil on the ground, the electronic device captures the second photo; when the vehicle passes through the intersection and presses over the induction coil on the opposite side of the ground, the electronic device captures the third photo. Reasons for not being captured: Crossing the solid line for a lane change is definitely a violation, but whether it will be captured depends on whether the local area has installed cameras to capture such violations. Also, it depends on whether the camera is malfunctioning or not. Some intersections have cameras specifically aimed at vehicles changing lanes over solid lines, and the probability of being captured in such cases is very high.

Can the slow speed of an electric tricycle be adjusted?

Electric tricycle can be adjusted if it runs slowly. Reasons why an electric tricycle runs slowly: If an electric tricycle runs slowly and runs out of power quickly, it indicates that the battery is damaged. Either a single battery cell is damaged or the entire battery group has reached the end of its lifespan, and the battery needs to be replaced. Electric Tricycle: An electric tricycle is a three-wheeled transport vehicle powered by batteries and driven by motors, used for carrying goods or passengers. Electric tricycles are equipped with tubular high-capacity, left and right lined, deep-discharge, traction-type batteries that can meet the requirements of continuous discharge during prolonged operation. The battery can normally be used for two years without a decrease in capacity.
