ON is the ignition position, where the engine can operate normally and the starter stops. Generally, when starting the car, you need to turn to the start position to start the engine, and after starting, releasing the key automatically returns it to the ignition position. START is the start position, where the starter is connected via the circuit to start the engine. Relevant information about spark plugs is as follows: 1. Introduction: The spark plug is a crucial component of the gasoline engine's ignition system. It introduces high voltage into the combustion chamber and generates a spark by jumping the electrode gap, thereby igniting the combustible mixture in the cylinder. It mainly consists of a terminal nut, insulator, terminal stud, center electrode, side electrode, and shell, with the side electrode welded to the shell. 2. Working Principle: Under high voltage, the air between the spark plug's center electrode and side electrode rapidly ionizes, forming positively charged ions and negatively charged free electrons. When the voltage between the electrodes reaches a certain level, the number of ions and electrons in the gas increases like an avalanche, causing the air to lose its insulating properties.

What Causes a Manual Transmission Car to Roll When Parked?

Manual transmission cars may roll when parked due to the following reasons: Tightening the Handbrake: Prolonged use of the handbrake can cause the handbrake cable to loosen, leading to the vehicle rolling when parked. Replacing the handbrake cable can resolve this issue. However, it's important to note that after applying the handbrake, you should habitually check if the vehicle is completely stationary and doesn't move at all. Braking on a Slope: If parking on a slope, use the foot brake for short stops. For longer stops, you can apply the handbrake, but only if it is effective. In such cases, try to pull the handbrake all the way. After tightening, check your surroundings and use other vehicles as reference points to determine if your car is rolling. For older vehicles with poor handbrake effectiveness, it's advisable to rely on the foot brake to prevent rolling.

Benefits of installing ETC: Saves time: Eliminates the hassle of waiting in line; Green and eco-friendly: Promotes low-carbon travel by allowing vehicles to pass through toll stations without stopping, reducing noise and exhaust emissions, thereby minimizing pollution; Reduces wear and tear: Saves costs by decreasing the frequency of vehicle starts and brakes, reducing wear and fuel consumption. Users also enjoy a 5% discount on toll fees; Improves efficiency: The theoretical efficiency of ETC lanes can increase by 2-3 times, making traditional ETC faster, more advanced, and higher-tech. Compared to license plate payment, ETC technology is more mature and advantageous.

Where is the air inlet of the pump?

The air inlet of the pump is located at the bottom of the pump, where there is a steel ball. During inhalation, the steel ball opens to allow air in. The air inlet of the pump is a one-way intake piston. When pumping, the piston opens, allowing the air inside the pump to enter the high-pressure tank. When the pump is lifted for inhalation, the piston closes. High pressure is formed inside the high-pressure tank to inflate the tire. Introduction to high-pressure pumps: High-pressure pumps are thinner than ordinary pumps. According to the relationship between pressure, force, and area, the required force is smaller, but the number of pumping actions increases. Introduction to ordinary pumps: With an ordinary pump, the force applied by the person must be greater than the tire pressure to inflate the tire. It is recommended to go to a 4S shop for car tire inflation, as doing it yourself can easily result in tire pressure that is too high or too low.

Is it better to maintain the car outside or at a 4S shop?

Generally speaking, 4S shops are not necessarily better than outside shops. If you want to save money, outside shops are more cost-effective, but you must choose a shop that can guarantee the quality of maintenance. Below are some precautions for car maintenance: Labor hours: When repairing a car, the hourly fee is usually included. If calculated separately, it would be duplicate billing. When replacing brake calipers, the brake pads need to be removed, and the labor cost for replacement should be included in the repair cost. If the bill includes separate labor fees for caliper repair and other items, you can argue with them. Mileage: When the car has a serious problem and needs to stay at the repair shop for a while, remember to note the mileage. This is to prevent unscrupulous mechanics from taking the car out for joyrides. For general repairs, even if test driving is included, the distance should not exceed 20 kilometers.
