Where are the VIN and Engine Number Located?

Locating the Engine Model: The engine model can be found on the outer surface of the engine block, vehicle registration certificate, vehicle license, purchase invoice, factory certificate, operation certificate for commercial vehicles, vehicle purchase tax payment certificate, registration with public security authorities, vehicle insurance card, and the actual engine (usually on the engine nameplate). The engine number, like a person's ID number, represents each vehicle and contains crucial information about it. Locating the VIN: The VIN can be seen on the vehicle's production nameplate. The Vehicle Identification Number is the same as the VIN. It can also be found on the inner side of the windshield near the driver's seat, consisting of letters and numbers. Opening the engine hood will also reveal the VIN in the engine compartment. The VIN, or Vehicle Identification Number, is a designated code created by manufacturers to identify vehicles. The VIN is stamped on the vehicle's frame. The exact location varies by manufacturer, so refer to your vehicle's manual for specifics. Engine models are identification codes assigned by manufacturers according to regulations, industry practices, and engine attributes. These codes indicate details like the manufacturer, specifications, performance, features, technology, purpose, and batch of the engine, including fuel type, cylinder count, displacement, and static brake power. Engines installed in passenger cars or multi-purpose vehicles must display the manufacturer, model, and production number as required. The VIN, commonly referred to as the frame number, is technically the Vehicle Identification Code, a unique alphanumeric sequence assigned by the manufacturer. The VIN consists of 17 characters, also known as the 17-digit identification code, frame number, or 17-digit number. The combination of these characters ensures that no two vehicles of the same model will have the same number within 30 years, making it a unique identifier akin to a 'vehicle ID card.' Common locations include the vehicle license and the lower left side of the front windshield. Note that the engine number is not the same as the engine model. The engine model refers to the specifications and size within the manufacturer's lineup, and multiple engines can share the same model. The engine number, however, is a unique production code assigned to each individual engine. Engine Number Composition: Front Section: Includes product series code, generation symbol, and regional or manufacturer code, chosen by the manufacturer but standardized and registered with the relevant industry authority. Middle Section: Comprises symbols for the number of cylinders, cylinder arrangement, stroke, and bore diameter. Rear Section: Includes symbols for structural and usage characteristics. End Section: A distinguishing symbol. Manufacturers may add symbols to differentiate improved versions, separated from the rear section by a hyphen if needed. The VIN consists of 17 characters divided into three parts. Part 1: WMI—World Manufacturer Identifier (positions 1-3); Part 2: VDS—Vehicle Descriptor Section (positions 4-9); Part 3: VIS—Vehicle Identifier Section (positions 10-17).

C1 is a code for a type of driver's license. According to the 'Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses' (Ministry of Public Security Order No. 123), C1 refers to a license that permits driving small and micro passenger vehicles, light and micro cargo vehicles, as well as light and micro special-purpose vehicles. It also allows driving vehicles under the C2, C3, and C4 license categories. A B2 license permits driving heavy and medium-duty cargo trucks or large, heavy, and medium-sized special-purpose vehicles. Heavy and medium-duty cargo trucks are mainly trucks, such as the large dump trucks commonly seen on roads, which fall under the category of heavy trucks. Large, heavy, and medium-sized special-purpose vehicles refer to vehicles equipped with specialized equipment or tools, such as water sprinklers, concrete mixers, fire trucks, etc. Article 14 of the 'Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses' states that first-time applicants for a motor vehicle driver's license may apply for license categories such as city buses, large trucks, small cars, small automatic transmission cars, low-speed cargo vehicles, three-wheeled cars, small automatic transmission passenger vehicles for the disabled, ordinary three-wheeled motorcycles, ordinary two-wheeled motorcycles, light motorcycles, wheeled self-propelled machinery, trolleybuses, and trams. For those who already hold a motor vehicle driver's license and wish to add additional license categories, the categories that can be added include large buses, tractors, city buses, medium-sized buses, large trucks, small cars, small automatic transmission cars, low-speed cargo vehicles, three-wheeled cars, ordinary three-wheeled motorcycles, ordinary two-wheeled motorcycles, light motorcycles, wheeled self-propelled machinery, trolleybuses, and trams. Article 15 states that those who already hold a motor vehicle driver's license and wish to add additional license categories must not have accumulated 12 points in the current scoring cycle or the most recent scoring cycle before the application. Applicants wishing to add medium-sized buses, tractors, or large buses must also meet the following requirements: Applicants for adding a medium-sized bus license category must have held a city bus, large truck, small car, small automatic transmission car, low-speed cargo vehicle, or three-wheeled car license for at least three years and must not have accumulated 12 points in the last three consecutive scoring cycles before the application. Applicants for adding a tractor license category must have held a medium-sized bus or large truck license for at least three years or a large bus license for at least one year and must not have accumulated 12 points in the last three consecutive scoring cycles before the application. Applicants for adding a large bus license category must have held a city bus, medium-sized bus, or large truck license for at least five years or a tractor license for at least two years and must not have accumulated 12 points in the last five consecutive scoring cycles before the application. Full-time driving vocational education students who have obtained a small car license while in school and have not accumulated 12 points in the current scoring cycle or the most recent scoring cycle before the application may apply to add large bus or tractor license categories.

What is the pipe above the fuel tank?

The pipes above the fuel tank are as follows: 1. Fuel outlet pipe: Delivers gasoline through the motor. 2. Fuel return pipe: Returns unused gasoline from the fuel injector back to the fuel tank. 3. Fuel vapor collection pipe: Gasoline is highly volatile. To prevent gasoline evaporation in the fuel tank, which causes air pollution and fuel waste, an activated carbon canister is installed. It connects to the fuel tank and intake manifold via pipes, using this activated carbon canister to absorb gasoline vapor from the fuel tank. Then, when the vehicle is operating, the gasoline in the canister volatilizes again to supply fuel to the engine.
