What is MPI?

MPI stands for Multi-Point Injection, also known as multi-point fuel injection. In this system, each cylinder is equipped with a fuel injector, enabling independent fuel supply to each cylinder and avoiding the drawbacks of single-point injection. The fuel injection volume for each cylinder in a multi-point injection system is controlled and adjusted by the computer, allowing for more precise fuel injection quantity and timing to each cylinder, thereby improving the engine's combustion efficiency. The injectors in a multi-point injection system are connected in parallel, and the ECU sends the same signal to all injectors in the same group. The injectors open and close at the same time, simplifying the programming and electronic circuitry. However, this system lacks the ability to adapt to varying engine conditions, which can lead to the phenomenon of fuel-air mixture lingering in the intake manifold.

What is the symbol for car water temperature warning?

The symbol for car water temperature warning is a thermometer with two wavy lines beneath it. When the water temperature warning appears, the driver needs to take immediate action by parking the car in a ventilated area and letting the engine idle to cool down. The sensor for the water temperature gauge is a thermistor-type sensor, which is fixed with threads on the engine's cooling water passage. The thermistor determines the current flowing through the coil winding of the water temperature gauge, driving the pointer to swing. Reasons for high car water temperature: 1. Dirty or clogged exterior or interior of the radiator; 2. Insufficient or leaking coolant; 3. Damaged thermostat; 4. Damaged water pump; 5. Damaged cooling fan or control system.

What is the cause of fault code P0420?

P0420 fault code indicates that the catalytic converter system efficiency is below the threshold. This may be due to the use of leaded gasoline damaging the converter, issues with the oxygen sensor, or damage to the exhaust pipe or catalytic converter leaks. Related information is as follows: 1. To resolve this fault, first understand that P0420 (Catalyst System Efficiency Below Threshold Bank 1) means the ECU monitors the efficiency using sensors installed before and after the Three-Way Catalytic Converter (TWC). 2. The effect caused by a catalyst in a chemical reaction is called catalysis, and catalysts are also known as promoters in industry. The composition, chemical properties, and mass of the catalyst remain unchanged before and after the reaction; its relationship with the reaction system is like that of a lock and key, exhibiting high selectivity (or specificity).

Why does the car shake at high speed?

There are several main reasons why a car shakes at high speed: 1. Excessive carbon deposits: Severe carbon buildup in the engine cylinders can lead to clogged spark plugs and valves, directly causing the car to shake when idling. 2. Fuel supply system malfunction: Unstable fuel pressure can easily cause fluctuations in the mixture concentration, not only resulting in shaking but also leading to unstable idling. Consider replacing the fuel filter first. 3. Misfire or cylinder failure: The issue may lie with the engine ignition coil or spark plugs. If the ignition coil malfunctions or the spark plugs fail to fire for some reason, the car will exhibit shaking.

Why is the engine yellow light on in the Magotan?

The engine yellow light being on indicates that the engine computer has detected an abnormal signal, such as water temperature or air flow meter issues. Due to this abnormality, the air-fuel mixture may be too rich or too lean, leading to non-compliant emissions. It is essential to first use a diagnostic tool to read the fault codes and perform repairs based on the codes. While driving, always pay attention to warning/indicator lights and strictly follow the instructions provided by these warnings or related text messages. Failure to do so may result in the vehicle breaking down, causing accidents or serious injuries. 1. Never ignore warnings from warning lights or text messages! 2. Stop the vehicle as soon as possible, ensuring safety during the process. 3. Park the car in a safe location away from the main traffic lane, ensuring there are no flammable materials like dry grass or fuel underneath the vehicle. Also, make sure no part of the exhaust system comes into contact with such materials. 4. A breakdown due to a malfunction increases the risk of accidents, endangering yourself and other road users. In such situations, activate the hazard warning lights and place a warning triangle near the vehicle to alert passing vehicles and prevent accidents.

How to turn on the high beam for the 10th generation Honda Civic?

The method to turn on the high beam for the 10th generation Civic is as follows: 1. Push the control lever on the left side of the steering wheel forward until you hear a click to turn on the high beam; 2. When the high beam is on, pull the control lever backward to switch back to the low beam; 3. Pull the control lever backward and then release it to flash the high beam. Additional relevant information is as follows: 1. Turn on the high beam when there are no street lights or visibility is poor at night; the low beam should be turned on when there are street lights at night, when encountering pedestrians on the roadside, or when driving on narrow roads, narrow bridges, or curves. 2. In terms of power, the 10th generation Civic is equipped with a 1.5L turbocharged engine, with a maximum horsepower of 177ps, a maximum power of 130kw, and a maximum torque of 220nm, paired with a continuously variable transmission.

Why does the Santana make noise when shifting gears and pressing the clutch?

The reasons why the Santana makes noise when shifting gears and pressing the clutch are as follows: 1. After pressing the clutch and engaging the gear, the foot continues to press on the clutch pedal. Maintaining this habit for a long time will cause damage to the clutch, and the clutch disc will wear out. Such abnormal noise is mostly due to the abnormal noise of the clutch release bearing. 2. In addition, when the clutch pedal is pressed, a clear abnormal noise can be heard from the clutch area; it becomes more obvious when the pedal is released. The main causes of this situation are: broken clutch pressure plate spring or loose release bearing; shattered clutch steel plate; broken, excessively worn, or broken adjustment bolt of the clutch release lever.
