The steps for applying car window tint film are: 1. Clean the inside and outside of the car windows to avoid affecting the later application effect; 2. Cut the appropriate size of film according to the glass size, the size can be slightly larger, because it will shrink a little after being blown by the hot air gun; 3. Before applying the film, spray some water on the glass, and also spray on the protective film surface to reduce the viscosity of the adhesive layer, so as to adjust the alignment of the film position; 4. The car window glass has a certain curvature, so a hot air gun is needed to shape the film; 5. Spray some cleaning solution on the inner glass, and also spray on the protective film surface, then align the position and apply the film; 6. During the application process, there will be some bubbles and water, use a long triangular plastic scraper to remove the water; 7. Check whether there are bubbles, wrinkles, or scratches between the film and the glass. If there are no problems, use a towel to clean the water at the edge of the glass.

Is it normal to have slight shaking after changing the engine oil?

Reasons for slight shaking after changing the engine oil: If the car still shakes after changing the engine oil, it may be due to excessive carbon deposits in the fuel system or a change in the grade or brand of the new engine oil. Here are the specific details: 1. Excessive carbon deposits in the fuel system: The fuel system is a delicate part of car components. It is recommended to go to a 4S shop for cleaning carbon deposits. Carbon deposits in this part are mostly concentrated in the fuel injector, combustion chamber, three-way catalyst, throttle valve, intake pipe, and combustion chamber. Cleaning carbon deposits in the fuel system is necessary not only to eliminate the shaking problem but also to avoid the risk of engine knocking and to provide effective data for various electronic sensors. 2. Change in the grade or brand of the engine oil: Engine oil in China is divided into two types: 5w-30 and 5w-40. Different types of engine oil are suitable for different regions. If you change to a different engine oil during car maintenance, slight shaking and increased engine noise may occur.

Will a motorcycle develop faults if left unused for a long time?

Yes. Here are precautions for long-term motorcycle storage: 1. Maintain standard tire pressure for both front and rear tires: Insufficient tire pressure may cause premature aging and cracking. 2. Store in a dry, ventilated area: Park the motorcycle in a dry and well-ventilated location while preventing moisture to avoid rust. Avoid prolonged outdoor storage as it accelerates exterior aging. 3. Drain and seal gasoline in containers: This prevents fuel evaporation during extended storage, which could cause starting difficulties or failure. Also drain carburetor gasoline to prevent impurities from clogging its jets and fuel passages.

Why is there a strange noise when turning the steering wheel in place?

If there is a strange noise inside the car when turning the steering wheel, the following aspects should be mainly considered: 1. Sound from the turn signal rebound clip: If the noise occurs only when turning the steering wheel after the turn signal is turned on, it is usually the sound from the rebound clip of the turn signal auto-return mechanism, which is a normal sound. Following the direction of the turn signal, turning the steering wheel will produce a "click" sound, and three "click" sounds will occur when the steering wheel completes one full rotation. This is because there are three auto-return positions on the steering column, hence this sound. As long as the turn signal is turned off or the steering wheel returns to its original position and the turn signal switch resets, this sound will disappear. 2. Sound from the steering column dust cover: Whether turning the steering wheel in place or while driving, if the noise comes from below the steering wheel, the steering column dust cover should be checked. This is because the steering column dust cover can easily produce friction sounds due to lack of lubrication. The solution is simple: apply some grease inside the dust cover to help with lubrication, and the noise will disappear.

Can a Rusty Car Door Be Repaired?

Yes, a rusty car door can be repaired. If rust is found on the door, it should be addressed promptly to prevent the rust from spreading. If the rust is on the surface and the area is small, you can use water sandpaper to grind off the rust and then spray a layer of anti-rust paint. If the door is severely corroded with large areas of paint peeling, the rusted paint must be completely scraped off, followed by filling and smoothing with putty. Once the putty hardens, repainting can proceed. Below is an introduction to car maintenance: 1. Exterior inspection: Before driving, check the doors, hood, trunk, and glass condition, inspect the body for damage, tilting, or any oil or water leaks. 2. Engine and various fluids: Check the fastening of engine components and inspect for oil or water leaks at the joints. Adjust and tighten belts, and check the fastening of pipes and wires. Top up engine oil, coolant, and electrolyte as needed. 3. Tires: Inspect tire wear and clean the trunk. Replace tires when they approach the wear indicators. Check for bulges, abnormal wear, aging cracks, or hard damage. 4. Cleaning and lubrication: Clean oil stains from the engine hood, door, and trunk hinge mechanisms, and lubricate them. Antifreeze typically has a service life of 2 years and should be replaced during maintenance, along with a thorough cleaning of the cooling system. Due to the hygroscopic nature of the braking system, brake fluid should be replaced every two years.

What to Do When the Engine Fails to Shut Down?

Engine failure to shut down may be caused by incomplete power cut-off to the shutdown solenoid valve, key switch sticking, damage to the shutdown solenoid valve, or deformation of the lever. It could also be due to sticking of the unit pump or the engine governor rack sticking or deforming. Below are the steps to troubleshoot the engine shutdown issue: 1. Starting Circuit: Check that the starting circuit is properly powered and the ignition key switch is not sticking. 2. According to customer feedback and on-site testing, the roller operates without speed drop and manual shutdown is normal, which proves that the unit pumps in each cylinder are not sticking. 3. Shutdown Solenoid Valve: After replacing the shutdown solenoid valve with a new one using the correct installation method and testing with power, the engine still fails to shut down automatically. 5. Engine Stop Lever: If the engine stop lever feels insufficiently elastic when moved, it may indicate that the engine governor rack is sticking or deformed, causing damage to the shutdown solenoid valve and preventing the engine from shutting down automatically.
