Generally, the fuel tank capacity of small cars is 35-45 liters, while that of medium-sized cars is 55-75 liters. A full tank can usually allow the car to travel about 500 kilometers. Depending on the engine displacement of the car, a higher fuel consumption corresponds to a larger fuel tank, and vice versa. During the actual refueling process, the amount of fuel may exceed the marked capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity marked by car manufacturers is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safe level. There is still some space from the safe level to the tank opening, which is reserved to allow for fuel expansion when the temperature rises, preventing overflow. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the marked tank capacity. To check the remaining fuel in the tank, the driver can observe the fuel gauge on the right side of the dashboard, which is marked with E and F. When the pointer is close to E, it indicates that the fuel is almost empty, while nearing F means the fuel level is sufficient.

What is the current national emission standard for automobiles?

The current national emission standard for automobiles is the China VI standard. The fuel standards and automobile emission standards under China VI have become more stringent, including stricter limits on sulfur, oxygen, methanol, and benzene content. Methods to check if a car meets the China VI standard include: 1. Check the vehicle conformity certificate: The certificate accompanying the car at the time of production clearly states the vehicle's emission standard; 2. Refer to the vehicle's packing list: The emission standard can be found in the vehicle information section; 3. Review the conformity certificate: It includes exhaust emissions and specifies the corresponding emission standard; 4. Query on the Motor Vehicle Environmental Protection Website: Find the public query platform on the homepage, enter the vehicle's VIN code and the last 6 digits of the engine number to check; 5. Inspect the vehicle's environmental protection label: The back of the environmental protection label on the car's front windshield clearly indicates the vehicle's emission standard.

What is the typical cone angle of an exhaust valve?

The cone angle of an exhaust valve is generally 45 degrees. Below is relevant information about exhaust valves: 1. Reason: The conical surface of the valve forms a sealing band when matched with the valve seat. A 45-degree valve cone angle is primarily chosen based on considerations such as sealing performance, machining convenience, and strength requirements. Other angles cannot achieve the sealing effectiveness of the current design angle. 2. Valve working principle: Part of the heat received by the valve head is transferred to the cylinder head through the valve seat ring; another portion is also transferred to the cylinder head via the valve stem and valve guide, ultimately being carried away by the coolant in the cylinder head water jacket. To enhance heat transfer, the sealing conical surfaces of the valve and valve seat ring must be tightly fitted. Therefore, they must be lapped in pairs and cannot be interchanged after lapping. The valve stem has high machining precision and low roughness, maintaining a small clearance with the valve guide to minimize wear and provide good guidance and heat dissipation.

Why are second-hand C4Ls so cheap?

Second-hand C4Ls are relatively cheap due to high fuel consumption, poor storage capacity, and loud engine noise. Here is a detailed explanation of why second-hand C4Ls are cheaper: 1. Low resale value: This car has relatively high fuel consumption but average cost performance. Compared to models in the same class, the configurations are similar, but the price of the car is higher. 2. Poor storage capacity: The trunk's storage capacity is poor. As a family car, storage capacity is a very important factor in purchasing. Compared to cars in the same class, the advantage is not obvious, and the rear seats cannot be folded flat with the floor, which also limits the price of second-hand C4Ls. 3. Low comfort: The central armrest cup holder is designed shallowly, making it difficult to secure taller beverage bottles, which is a certain inconvenience. Additionally, the engine noise is relatively loud, and the car's sound insulation is not good, affecting driving comfort.

Is Interest Required for Car Loans?

Interest is indeed required for car loans. Currently, there are three main methods for financing a car purchase, explained as follows: 1. Credit Card Installment Loan Interest: Apart from the advantage of relatively simple approval and procedures, credit card car purchases do not require corresponding property collateral, eliminating the cumbersome processes such as intermediary notarization and additional costs that burden consumers. 2. Bank Loan Interest: In terms of interest rates, traditional bank car loans offer no advantage. For instance, a certain bank's 2-year car loan rate has risen to 7.8%, while the 3-year loan rate is approximately 30% higher than the base rate of 6.65%. Typically, the 3-year car loan rate has increased to 11.28%. 3. Auto Finance Company Loan Interest: A recent survey found that a certain auto finance company's 3-year loan rate is 10.99%, and the 5-year car loan rate is 11.38%, which is higher than the current bank loan rate of 6.65% for 1-3 years (including 3 years).

How many years is the validity period of a driver's license test permit?

The validity period of a driver's license test permit is three years. Below are specific details about the driver's license: 1. Introduction: The People's Republic of China Motor Vehicle Driver's License, commonly referred to as a driver's license, is a mandatory document issued under the laws of the People's Republic of China for individuals who operate motor vehicles. The driver's license is valid nationwide and records the holder's ID number, name, gender, date of birth, permanent address, nationality, permitted (learning) vehicle type code, initial issuance date, validity period, and management records. It also includes the issuing authority's seal, file number, and the holder's photo. 2. Learning: Test candidates can use mobile or computer-based driver's license simulation test software, such as 'Driver's License Test Prep,' to study traffic regulations and related driver's license knowledge. Books compiled by the Ministry of Transport are essential study materials for the driver's license test and can be purchased collectively by driving schools or individually by students.

Is There a Subject 5 in the Driving License Test?

There is no Subject 5 in the driving license test. Here is some relevant information about the driving license test: 1. Test Subjects: The subjects are: Subject 1, Subject 2, and Subject 3. Subject 3 is further divided into the Road Driving Skills Test (Subject 3 Road Test) and the Safe and Civilized Driving Knowledge Test (also known as Subject 4). 2. Related Information: The policy states that if a driver causes a traffic fatality within three years of obtaining their license and bears primary or greater responsibility, the examination and licensing process will be reviewed. If it is found that the examiner participated in falsifying test results or lowering examination standards, their examiner qualification will be revoked, and they will be permanently barred from participating in driving test work. In other words, obtaining the license does not mean everything is settled. On the contrary, the driving behavior after obtaining the license will also be linked to the driving school. Whether the examination standards are strict and whether the test content is applicable to specific situations are directions to be considered in the future.
