The automotive engine activated carbon canister contains activated carbon, which functions to adsorb gasoline vapors from the fuel tank. When the engine is under load, the ECU controls the opening of the solenoid valve to direct the fuel vapors into the intake manifold behind the throttle body for combustion in the engine. Additional information: 1. High-tech nano-photocatalysts loaded on the microporous inner walls can decompose harmful gases adsorbed by the carbon under light conditions, enabling regeneration and reuse; 2. High-quality porous coconut shell activated carbon with a large specific surface area and superior adsorption capacity is used to effectively remove harmful gases such as formaldehyde, benzene, ammonia, and TVOC; 3. It exhibits strong inorganic antibacterial properties, long-lasting effectiveness, broad-spectrum activity, and safety for use, posing no harm to human health; 4. It can be used to remove various harmful organic compounds like formaldehyde, benzene, ammonia, and TVOC from the interior of vehicles, thereby purifying the air.

Can a Vehicle with Original Halogen Lamps Modified to Xenon Lamps Pass the Annual Inspection?

Currently, Chinese laws do not explicitly state that modifying xenon headlights is illegal. However, if the modified xenon headlights have a luminous intensity exceeding the stipulated value, it constitutes an illegal modification. Moreover, vehicles with halogen lamps modified to xenon lamps cannot pass the annual inspection. Below are detailed introductions to xenon lamps: 1. Xenon lamps, also known as High-Intensity Discharge (HID) lamps, offer advantages such as safety, energy efficiency, high brightness, long lifespan, and easy installation. Many high-end vehicles come equipped with xenon lamps from the factory, making them a popular choice for headlight modifications. 2. There is no issue as long as the color temperature of the xenon lamp does not exceed 6000K during installation. The normal color temperature of factory-installed xenon lamps is 4300K, which provides the best light penetration and does not cause glare to oncoming traffic.

What are the methods for cleaning carbon deposits in a car?

Methods for cleaning carbon deposits in a car: 1. Remove the engine cover, take off the throttle valve, clean it with carburetor cleaner, dry it with a cotton cloth, and then reinstall it; 2. Open the oil cap, pour in the entire can of cleaner, close the oil cap, start the engine and let it idle for ten minutes before turning it off; 3. Pour the intake system cleaner into the liquid storage tank of a dedicated cleaning device, connect it to the intake system, and start the engine to use vacuum to draw the cleaner into the intake tract for cleaning. Methods to identify carbon deposits in a car: 1. Check the fuel consumption; if the increase continues to rise, it indicates that carbon deposits have formed on the engine; 2. Based on the mileage, the higher the car's mileage, the more carbon deposits will accumulate; 3. Replace with higher-grade gasoline; if there is an improvement in power, it means there is more carbon deposit in the engine.

What causes the automatic headlight washer rod to not retract?

The reasons why the automatic headlight washer rod does not retract are: 1. The headlight washer device is difficult to reset after being blocked by foreign objects. Check if there are any foreign objects stuck inside the washer device. The most common foreign objects are leaves or small stones. After cleaning, normal use can be restored; 2. In winter, when temperatures are low, if the windshield washer fluid is not properly treated for antifreeze, it can freeze directly inside the headlight washer device, preventing the headlight washer device from moving up and down. Method for using the headlight washer device: When the ignition switch is in the 'on' position, turn on the high beams, then pull the wiper control lever toward the driver and hold it for more than 1 second. The front headlight washer device and the windshield washer device will work simultaneously. Once the wiper control lever is released, the windshield washer device will stop spraying the cleaning fluid. Do not use the headlight washer device if there is no cleaning fluid to avoid overheating the motor.

What causes slight shaking when the car is idling?

The reasons for a car shaking during idle are as follows: 1. Intake system failure: Excessive carbon buildup in the throttle body and intake manifold, clogged air filter element, leaks in the intake pipe or EGR valve, faulty intake pressure sensor. 2. Fuel system failure: Fuel supply pressure issues, faulty fuel injectors. 3. Ignition system failure: Spark plugs not firing or weak spark energy, faulty ignition module or ignition coil, malfunctioning sensors or ignition control circuit. 4. Electronic control system failure: Internal circuit damage or poor contact in the electronic control system. 5. Mechanical structure failure: Damaged or weakened piston rings, carbon buildup in piston ring grooves, carbon deposits in cylinders, bent or deformed connecting rods, incorrect timing belt installation. 6. Other reasons: Air conditioning system, automatic transmission, etc., which increase engine idle load, clogged catalytic converter, imbalance in rotating components such as the crankshaft and flywheel.
