What is the function of an air compressor in a car?

[OGianna]

The functions of an air compressor in a car: 1. Cleaning the surface of parts. Car parts are numerous and complex in shape, making them difficult to clean. The inner and outer surfaces of the parts are prone to dirt or metal shavings. Using compressed air can clean all types of parts thoroughly; 2. Unclogging blocked pipes. The air and oil passages in a car often get partially or completely blocked by foreign objects. By introducing compressed air in the opposite direction of the foreign object's entry, the blockage can be quickly cleared; 3. Checking for leaks. The air pipes, oil passages, and cooling system in a car often have leaks of varying degrees. To locate hidden leaks, the components can be submerged in water or coated with soapy water, and then compressed air can be introduced into the components to easily identify the leaks.
