The method for adjusting spark plug gap is: 1. Determine the standard gap value for your vehicle's spark plugs. You can use a large flat-head screwdriver with the spark plug metal casing as a fulcrum to pry; 2. Use a feeler gauge to find the appropriate metal blade that matches the spark plug gap; 3. Insert the corresponding thickness blade from the feeler gauge into the spark plug gap - if it fits snugly, it means the spark plug gap matches the blade thickness (multiple feeler gauge blades can be stacked if needed); 4. Select a 0.9mm or 1.0mm blade from the feeler gauge, place it between the spark plug electrodes, and use pliers to adjust until the blade fits snugly; 5. Repeatedly test with the feeler gauge until the blade fits properly.

Can vehicle inspection be done in a different location?

Vehicle inspection can be done in a different location. Here is some relevant expanded information: Cross-province vehicle inspection: Since September 1, 2018, cross-province inspections for small cars, trucks, and medium-sized buses have been fully implemented. This means applicants can directly undergo inspection in provinces other than the vehicle's registration location and obtain the inspection qualification mark without needing to apply for an inspection authorization letter. Large passenger buses and school buses cannot be inspected in different locations and must return to the vehicle's registration location for inspection. If still unclear, you can check the annotation on the vehicle's registration certificate. Out-of-province annual inspection: Vehicles registered in other provinces can undergo annual inspection locally. Compared to before, the procedures for out-of-province vehicles to undergo annual inspection locally are now the same as normal procedures. According to previous rules, for out-of-province vehicles to undergo annual inspection locally, the owner needed to return to the vehicle's registration location to apply for an "out-of-province annual inspection authorization letter" before returning to the vehicle's usage location for the annual inspection. After the implementation of the new policy, out-of-province vehicles only need to bring their ID card, vehicle registration certificate, original copy of compulsory traffic insurance, and vehicle and vessel tax certificate to any inspection station nationwide for annual inspection.

Can You Shift Gears While Pressing the Brake?

You only need to press the brake when shifting to P gear; for other gears, normal manual control is sufficient. Below is a detailed introduction to the automatic transmission gears: R gear (Reverse gear): When this gear is engaged, the hydraulic system's reverse gear circuit is activated, causing the drive wheels to rotate in reverse for backward movement. Do not force the shift into "R" gear when the vehicle is not completely stopped, as this may damage the transmission. N gear (Neutral gear): When in neutral, the planetary gear system idles and cannot output power. D gear (Drive gear): When the gearshift lever is in this position, the hydraulic control system automatically engages the appropriate forward gear circuit based on throttle opening and vehicle speed signals. It can automatically shift up or down according to driving speed, achieving automatic transmission functionality. P gear (Parking gear): This uses a mechanical device to lock the rotating parts of the car's tires, preventing the vehicle from moving.

What type of battery does the Qiantu K50 use?

The Qiantu K50 uses a ternary lithium-ion battery. Most pure electric vehicles or plug-in hybrid vehicles use ternary lithium-ion batteries, which have higher energy density and are lighter in weight. The cathode of a ternary lithium-ion battery is made of ternary materials. Some ternary lithium-ion batteries use nickel, cobalt, and manganese for the cathode, while others use nickel, cobalt, and aluminum. Below is an introduction to ternary lithium-ion batteries: 1. The "ternary" in ternary lithium-ion batteries refers to a polymer containing three metal elements: nickel (Ni), cobalt (Co), and manganese (Mn) or aluminum (Al), which serve as the cathode in the battery. All three elements are indispensable and play a crucial role within the battery. 2. Ternary materials have a higher voltage platform compared to lithium iron phosphate. The higher the voltage platform, the greater the specific capacity. Under the same volume or weight, or even with batteries of the same ampere-hour, ternary material lithium-ion batteries with a higher voltage platform offer a longer driving range. Ternary lithium-ion batteries also have significant advantages in high-rate charging and low-temperature performance. 3. The capacity degradation of ternary lithium-ion batteries is irreversible. After purchasing a vehicle equipped with a ternary lithium-ion battery, it is advisable to avoid charging in extremely high or low-temperature environments. Additionally, users should pay attention to relevant precautions during daily use to extend the battery's lifespan.
