The yellow light on the fuel gauge illuminating indicates the following two situations: 1. When starting the vehicle's power supply, a self-check will be performed and then the light will go out, which is normal. The first scenario is when the car's power is turned on, the vehicle conducts a self-check. During this time, not only the engine yellow light but also other fault lights will illuminate simultaneously, then they will all turn off. This is a normal occurrence. 2. If the yellow light remains on after the car is started, it indicates an engine fault. The second scenario is when the car is started, and the engine fault yellow light stays on. This is the ECU alerting that there is a fault in the engine, which is an abnormal condition.

Is Blue Shell Oil Fully Synthetic Oil?

Blue Shell Oil is not fully synthetic oil. Introduction to Fully Synthetic Oil: Fully synthetic oil is a type of automotive synthetic oil. It boasts exceptional oxidation stability, with its antioxidant capacity being about 25% higher than that of regular synthetic oil. This effectively controls oil oxidation and deterioration, extending the oil change interval. Functions of Fully Synthetic Oil: Synthetic oil features top-tier detergency and dispersancy. Its cleaning and dispersing performance is more than five times that of mineral oil, effectively reducing deposit formation, preventing engine wear, maintaining strong engine power, and reducing fuel consumption.

What are the symptoms of a faulty diesel engine fuel injector?

Diesel engine fuel injector failure symptoms include: 1. The engine emits black smoke; 2. The engine produces abnormal noises. The fuel injector is one of the key components of an electronically controlled fuel injection engine, and its working condition directly affects engine performance. Causes of fuel injector clogging: 1. Carbon deposits from engine combustion accumulating on the injector or impurities in the fuel causing clogging; 2. After a certain mileage, deposits form in the fuel system; 3. The inherent gums and impurities in the fuel or dust and impurities introduced during storage and transportation can form sludge-like deposits in the fuel tank and fuel lines; 4. Excessive engine oil added, which enters the combustion chamber through piston rings, adheres to the injector, and forms carbon deposits after high-temperature combustion.

Can You Still Drive Out in 5-6 Level Winds?

5-6 level winds generally allow for driving out. Reasons why driving is possible: Winds around levels 5 to 6 may cause tree branches and leaves to sway, which can certainly affect pedestrians trying to hold umbrellas. It is recommended to use enclosed transportation methods when going out, such as cars or buses. At this wind speed, pedestrians can generally feel significant resistance, making walking more difficult, but this wind speed has little impact on vehicles. Wind level classification: Currently, China's wind level classification generally divides winds into 18 levels, with level 0 being the smallest and level 17 being the strongest. The classification is based on wind speed and the level of impact on objects.
