The phenomena that may occur when refueling with the engine running are: 1. Fuel may spray out when opening the fuel tank cap, creating a safety hazard; 2. The engine continues to operate with electrical current flowing, potentially causing short circuits or leakage, leading to fire accidents; 3. The surrounding heat is relatively high, and the concentration of fuel vapor-air mixture around the fuel tank increases during refueling. If sparks occur during vehicle operation, gasoline molecules in the air can easily ignite, posing a danger. Precautions for refueling include: 1. Do not use mobile phones; 2. No smoking; 3. Park the vehicle, turn off the engine, and shut down the power.

What is the actual fuel consumption of the Buick Regal 2.0T?

The average fuel consumption of the Buick Regal 2.0T engine model is 10.6L/100KM, with a range of 9.5L-12.25L. Factors affecting vehicle fuel consumption: There are many factors that affect a vehicle's fuel consumption, such as vehicle weight, tires, wind resistance, and even driving habits. If the driver's usual driving habits are more aggressive, maintaining high RPMs for extended periods will inevitably lead to increased fuel consumption. Fuel consumption values: It is difficult to determine an exact fuel consumption value, as long as the consumption is within the normal range, it is acceptable. Generally, the fuel consumption data we see at 4S stores is the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) fuel consumption data, which can only serve as a reference. The MIIT fuel consumption is generally much lower than the actual fuel consumption because the MIIT data is not obtained from real road tests but is calculated in a laboratory based on certain standards.

Should the car air conditioner blue setting be turned to the maximum?

Car air conditioner blue setting does not need to be turned to the maximum. Specific details are as follows: Adjustment position: Do not turn it too much, just to the blue position is sufficient. Reason: The car's air conditioner becomes colder the more it is turned towards the blue side. This is because the blue area only adjusts the opening degree of the cold air inlet. Information about car air conditioners is as follows: Car air conditioner: Refers to the air conditioning device installed in a car, which can cool, heat, ventilate, and purify the air inside the cabin, providing a comfortable environment for passengers, reducing driver fatigue, and improving driving safety. Components: Generally includes refrigeration devices, heating devices, and ventilation devices. This combined system makes full use of the limited space inside the car, has a simple structure, and is easy to operate, making it a popular modern car air conditioning system internationally.

Should the speed be maintained above 20 throughout the entire Subject 3 test?

It is not necessary to maintain the speed above 20 throughout the entire Subject 3 test. Here is an introduction regarding the speed requirements for the Subject 3 test: 1. Gear and speed should match: When in first gear, the speed should be between 10–20 km/h; when in second gear, the speed should be between 20–30 km/h; when in third gear, the speed should be between 30–40 km/h; when in fourth gear, the speed should be above 40 km/h; when in fifth gear, the speed should not exceed 45 km/h. 2. Speed considerations for the Subject 3 test: During the Subject 3 test, it is important to maintain a consistent speed throughout, avoiding sudden acceleration or deceleration. Driving too slowly may cause the engine to stall, while driving too fast may result in penalties. Generally, the speed should not exceed 45 km/h or drop below 10 km/h.

Why can't the Nissan Sylphy start?

The reasons why the Nissan Sylphy cannot start may include human operational factors such as a dead battery, empty fuel tank, or incorrect gear position; it could also be due to vehicle usage issues like improper fuel quality, lack of antifreeze, or excessive carbon buildup. The vehicle usage reasons are as follows: 1. Fuel quality issue: During a repair, it was found that the fuel tank contained water and mud. Using such fuel will inevitably damage the car. Therefore, car owners are reminded to always refuel at reputable gas stations and can carry a gauze to cover the fuel nozzle when traveling to filter out impurities. 2. Lack of antifreeze: Some car owners add water or inferior antifreeze to their cars, resulting in extremely cold winter conditions that freeze the entire water circuit, crack the engine, prevent the car's water pump from functioning, cause failure to start, and damage other engine components.
