Precautions for safe driving in rainy days are as follows: Pay attention to speed: When driving in rainy days, the speed must be slowed down because the road is slippery, especially when turning, excessive speed can easily cause skidding. The wet and slippery road surface in rainy days will extend the braking distance, so it is necessary to decelerate in advance to give yourself enough reaction time and space to ensure safety. Pay attention to distance: Do not keep too close to the car in front, as the slippery road can easily lead to rear-end collisions. Do not follow large vehicles too closely. First, it will block your view. Second, large vehicles may not be able to pass through water sections that they can normally pass. Moreover, large vehicles are prone to splashing water waves, causing inconvenience. Pay attention to visibility: Ensure clear visibility by cleaning rainwater and fog from the windows, and be mindful of pedestrians when crossing the road. In rainy days, the outside temperature is low, and the moisture inside the car condenses into fog on the windshield, obstructing the view. In this case, it is necessary to turn on the air conditioning to defog. Drivers should slow down, yield patiently, and choose a safe place to stop if necessary, avoiding competing with pedestrians and non-motorized vehicles.

Will the engine be damaged if it experiences bearing seizure?

Bearing seizure in an engine can lead to crankshaft lock-up. Engine bearing seizure: After bearing seizure occurs, the crankshaft may suffer deformation and damage. If repairs are performed without proper alignment and grinding, when the engine experiences bearing seizure and crankshaft lock-up, the crankshaft will be subjected to bending and torsional forces. The high-speed rotating crankshaft-connecting rod mechanism undergoes sudden braking, making the crankshaft highly prone to bending and twisting deformation. The journal surfaces may experience varying degrees of damage such as burning, scoring, and out-of-roundness. If repairs are conducted without inspecting, aligning, and grinding the crankshaft, and only the bearings are replaced, the proper fit between bearings and journals will be compromised. The coaxiality of main journals and connecting rod journals will exceed tolerance limits, leading to increased friction and subsequent continuous bearing seizure. Repair method: Replace the bearings and clean the crankshaft oil passages.

What is the general fuel tank capacity of a car in liters?

Generally, the fuel tank capacity of small cars ranges from 35 to 45 liters, while that of medium-sized cars ranges from 55 to 75 liters. A full tank typically allows a driving range of approximately 500 kilometers. The size of the fuel tank is correlated with the car's displacement and fuel consumption—larger fuel consumption corresponds to a larger tank, and vice versa. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel added may exceed the calibrated capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity specified by car manufacturers is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safety limit. There is additional space from the safety limit to the tank opening, which is designed to accommodate fuel expansion due to temperature increases, preventing overflow. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the calibrated tank capacity. To check the remaining fuel level, drivers can observe the fuel gauge on the right side of the instrument panel, which is marked with 'E' and 'F'. When the needle approaches 'E', it indicates low fuel, while nearing 'F' signifies sufficient fuel.

What are the symbols for China V and China VI?

The symbol marks for China 5 and China 6 are "China V" and "China VI" respectively in English representation. The following are the differences between the two: 1. Emission limits: "China VI" adopts the principle of fuel neutrality, meaning that regardless of the fuel used, the emission limits are the same. However, in the previous "China V" stage, the emission standards for diesel vehicles and gasoline vehicles were different. Moreover, the limit requirements of the "China VI standard" are about 40% to 50% stricter than those of "China V". 2. Emission standards: Compared with China V, the China VI standard reduces nitrogen oxides by 77% and particulate matter by 67%, introduces a limit requirement for particle number (PN), and tightens the requirements for the durability of emission control devices and on-board diagnostic systems (OBD). However, the emission standards for the "China VIa" stage are basically the same as those for "China V", only taking the strictest values from the "China V" emission requirements. 3. Regulatory requirements: China VI puts forward stricter compliance supervision requirements, including type inspection and information disclosure, production consistency inspection, new production vehicle inspection, in-use vehicle compliance inspection, etc., and simplifies the compliance determination method.

Is 40 Liters of Gasoline for 500 Kilometers Fuel-Efficient?

40 liters of gasoline for 500 kilometers translates to a fuel consumption of 8L per 100 kilometers, which is relatively fuel-efficient. The actual fuel consumption of a car varies slightly depending on each individual's driving habits and techniques. Smoother driving habits generally result in lower fuel consumption, while aggressive driving behaviors such as frequent high-revving operations like rapid acceleration and overtaking will appropriately increase fuel consumption. Below are some methods to reduce fuel consumption: 1. Check the air conditioning system in summer: Malfunctioning air conditioning is a significant cause of high fuel consumption. Poor cooling performance leads to higher fan speeds and lower temperatures to achieve a cooling effect. 2. Frequent hard braking: Frequent hard braking is a primary reason for persistently high fuel consumption. While ensuring safe driving, make full use of the vehicle's inertia. 3. Avoid excessive air conditioning in small-displacement cars: For vehicles exposed to the sun, it is not advisable to turn on the air conditioning immediately upon entering. First, open the windows and set the fan to a higher setting without turning on the air conditioning to expel the hot air inside the car. Wait until the vehicle has moderately cooled down before turning on the air conditioning.
