Idling in place for one hour consumes approximately 0.6 liters of fuel. Below is an introduction to idling: Introduction: Idling is an operating condition of a car, referring to the engine running in neutral gear. Diagnosis of unstable idling: Uneven fuel injection from the injectors or poor atomization can cause an imbalance in the power output of each cylinder. If the oil pressure is too low, the fuel sprayed from the injector may have poor atomization or form a line, and in severe cases, only droplets may be sprayed, reducing the fuel injection and making the mixture too lean. If the oil pressure is too high, the actual fuel injection increases, making the mixture too rich. Faults in sensors or wiring can lead to incorrect commands from the control unit, resulting in improper fuel injection, causing the mixture to be too rich or too lean, which are indirect causes of unstable idling.

What do the 92, 95, and 98 services mean?

92 service refers to 92-octane gasoline, 95 service refers to 95-octane gasoline, and 98 service refers to 98-octane gasoline. 92 service: 92 service refers to 92-octane gasoline, which has an octane rating of 92 and contains 8% heptane. It is suitable for mid-range vehicles (those with relatively low compression ratios). 95 service: 95 service refers to 95-octane gasoline, which consists of 95% octane and 5% heptane. High-compression engines should use high-octane gasoline. Using low-octane gasoline in a high-compression engine can cause abnormal combustion, leading to knocking, increased fuel consumption, and reduced driving power. Of course, high-compression engines can also use lower-octane gasoline, but it is not advisable to choose gasoline solely based on compression ratio. Instead, follow the manufacturer's recommendations for fueling. 98 service: 98 service refers to 98-octane gasoline, which has an octane rating equivalent to a mixture of 98% isooctane and 2% heptane. The advantages of 98-octane gasoline are "two highs and two lows": higher anti-knock performance and power output, and lower harmful substances in the gasoline and lower exhaust emissions.

What grade of engine oil should be used for Toyota Yaris L?

Toyota Yaris L's dedicated engine oil recommended by the manufacturer is 5W30 semi-synthetic oil. In practice, 0W20, 5W20, 5W30, and 10W30 can all be used, but the most suitable engine oil for Toyota Yaris L is 5W30 semi-synthetic. Here is the relevant introduction: 1. The meaning of engine oil grade: The engine oil grade usually indicates viscosity and quality. The viscosity of lubricating oil is often identified using SAE grades. W stands for winter, and the smaller the number before it, the better the low-temperature fluidity of the oil, indicating a lower usable ambient temperature and better protection for the engine during cold starts. The number after W is an indicator of the oil's high-temperature resistance; the larger the number, the better the oil's protective performance at high temperatures. 2. Engine oil classification: It is represented by a combination of two letters. The S-series represents oil for gasoline engines, with general specifications ranging from SA to SN (in alphabetical order, but without SI). Each subsequent letter indicates better performance than the previous one, with more additives to protect the engine. The further back the letter, the higher the quality grade. Among international brands, most engine oil grades are SF or higher.

How many cubic meters can a 17.5-meter flatbed truck carry?

17.5-meter flatbed truck can carry 10 cubic meters. Flatbed truck: Flatbed truck, with a body length of about five feet and a height of over two feet, is assembled with varying numbers of flat wooden boards for both the frame and the bed. It features iron axles and large wooden wheels, with a diameter of approximately one and a half feet. Traditional wooden wheels are rarely seen in rural areas nowadays, as most have been replaced with rubber tires. Uses of flatbed truck: Flatbed trucks are commonly used for transporting people and goods. When driving, the "harness" tied between the two handles is hung over the shoulders, and with both hands holding the handles and the body leaning slightly forward, the truck can be pulled along the road. When encountering uphill slopes or slippery roads, an additional rope tied to the right handle can be looped over the shoulder for pulling, or someone can push from behind to assist in moving forward. Typically, the truck is equipped with two to three movable sideboards to prevent leakage of manure, crops, or other small items. In northern Shaanxi, water carts used for transporting water are simpler than flatbed trucks, with longer handles and wheels higher than the bed, making it easier to turn and maintain balance during movement. At local markets or temple fairs, flatbed trucks are often loaded with goods and parked on both sides of the road, serving as convenient mobile stalls.

Can You Add 92 Octane Gasoline After Filling Up with 95 Octane?

If both 92 and 95 octane gasoline are within the vehicle's allowable range and are not mixed, you can add 92 octane gasoline after filling up with 95 octane. However, if 92 octane is not within the manufacturer's recommended gasoline grade, it should not be used. Unauthorized reduction of the gasoline grade may not show obvious effects in the short term, but over time, it can cause engine knocking, insufficient engine power, and loud knocking sounds. It is advisable to consistently use one type of gasoline, as mixing different grades can negatively affect the engine and fuel system. If you are concerned about the potential harm of mixing gasoline, you can remove the fuel tank, drain all the fuel (including the fuel in the fuel pump), clean the fuel tank, fuel lines, and combustion chamber, replace the fuel filter, and then refuel. Every engine undergoes a comprehensive evaluation before leaving the factory. Based on the engine's performance and other data characteristics, the manufacturer specifies the required anti-knock properties, which determine the appropriate gasoline grade to use. Therefore, refueling should follow the engine's compression ratio or the most suitable gasoline grade recommended in the vehicle's user manual. This approach is more scientific, economical, and allows the engine to operate at maximum efficiency. The gasoline grade represents the octane rating of the gasoline. For example, 92 octane gasoline consists of approximately 92% isooctane and 8% n-heptane. Since isooctane has better anti-knock properties and n-heptane has poorer anti-knock properties, a higher octane rating indicates better anti-knock performance of the gasoline.
