PQ in oil testing refers to the amount of ferromagnetic particles contained in the oil, and the PQ value is also known as the mechanical wear index. The following is an introduction to PQ-related information: Instruments for measuring PQ values: There are specialized measuring instruments for PQ values, called PQ meters, also known as "ferrographs". Working principle of PQ: The working principle is that the tested oil sample is slowly and steadily transported by a double-tube infusion pump along the oil delivery pipe to the tray bracket above the magnet pole. The ferromagnetic wear particles in the oil are adsorbed on the center of the tray bracket surface under the action of a strong magnetic field. Meanwhile, the oil flowing through the strong magnetic field area is sucked back by the double-tube infusion pump along the oil return pipe, and then the inner wall of the oil delivery pipe and the center of the tray bracket surface are cleaned with a cleaning solution (such as tetrachloroethylene) that has strong solubility and good volatility.

What to Do When Car Air Conditioning Causes a Sharp Increase in Fuel Consumption?

When the car air conditioning causes a sharp increase in fuel consumption, pay attention to fuel efficiency. Here are some tips regarding the issue: 1. Air Conditioning: Avoid accelerating quickly after turning on the air conditioning. If you want to use the air conditioning, first reduce the car's speed, wait for it to stabilize, and then gradually increase the speed. Avoid pressing the accelerator pedal hard or suddenly braking, as this will significantly increase fuel consumption. Once you are driving at a steady speed and feel the airflow is comfortable, you can then accelerate more firmly. 2. Idling: Keeping the engine idling while using the air conditioning will increase engine wear and cause fuel consumption to rise sharply. Although it may feel cooler, the air inside the car will not circulate, and prolonged exposure can easily affect your health.

For small and micro non-commercial passenger vehicles, inspections are required once every two years within the first six years, once annually after exceeding six years, twice annually after exceeding 15 years, and once every three months after exceeding 20 years. Emissions testing is conducted on the same date as the annual inspection. Below is additional information: 1. Required documents: Original copy of the compulsory traffic accident liability insurance certificate for motor vehicles, photocopy of the vehicle and vessel tax payment or tax exemption certificate; original copy of the motor vehicle safety technical inspection certificate; original copy of the "Motor Vehicle Driving License." 2. Regulations: According to the relevant provisions of the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law": Article 16: Motor vehicles shall undergo safety technical inspections within the following periods from the date of registration: (1) Commercial passenger vehicles must be inspected once annually within five years; after exceeding five years, once every six months; (2) Trucks and large or medium-sized non-commercial passenger vehicles must be inspected once annually within 10 years; after exceeding 10 years, once every six months; (3) Small and micro non-commercial passenger vehicles must be inspected once every two years within six years; after exceeding six years, once annually; after exceeding 15 years, once every six months.

Does Using Air Conditioning in Gasoline Cars Consume More Fuel?

Whether it's idling for a long time with the air conditioner on or using the heater, both will increase fuel consumption. Here are the details: 1. Using the air conditioner in summer: The engine control unit increases the engine speed by about 100 RPM, which leads to an increase in air intake and fuel injection, resulting in a richer air-fuel mixture. The engine computer uses this method to improve engine stability. However, a richer mixture can lead to incomplete combustion of gasoline. Prolonged idling with the air conditioner on can cause more carbon deposits, making the engine consume more fuel. 2. Using the heater in winter: The heater blows warm air by utilizing the temperature from the heater core. The normal operating temperature of the engine is 85 degrees Celsius. Only when this temperature is reached can the engine operate normally. If the heater is used continuously, the heater core keeps dissipating heat, causing the engine temperature to rise slightly, which requires the engine to increase its RPM to meet the coolant temperature requirements. As a result, the vehicle will consume more fuel. Prolonged idling with the heater on will increase fuel consumption and lead to more carbon deposits.

Is Stalling on the Slope an Automatic Fail in Subject 2?

Stalling on the slope in Subject 2 results in an automatic fail. Below are some techniques to avoid stalling on a slope: 1. Clutch and Brake Pedal: Before starting, ensure the clutch and brake pedals are fully depressed. Then, slowly release the clutch while keeping your heel stationary and gently lifting the ball of your foot. When the car body begins to vibrate slightly, continue to slowly release the clutch. Once the vibration becomes more pronounced, hold the clutch steady with your left foot and gradually release the brake with your right foot. After about 3 seconds, when the car stabilizes, you can fully release both the clutch and brake to allow the car to move forward smoothly. 2. Handbrake and Throttle: When performing a hill start, immediately engage the handbrake after stopping with the foot brake. To start, simultaneously release the handbrake with your right hand, gently lift the clutch with your left foot, and lightly press the throttle with your right foot. Continue to gently lift the clutch until reaching the semi-engaged state. Once semi-engagement is achieved, hold the clutch steady, add a bit more throttle, observe the car's front-end vibration, and then release the handbrake.
