Under normal circumstances, the fuel pressure provided by the fuel pump is generally around 3-3.5 bar. The gasoline pressure may vary depending on the vehicle model. The function of the fuel pump is to draw gasoline from the fuel tank and deliver it through the pipeline and fuel filter to the carburetor float chamber. It is precisely because of the fuel pump that the fuel tank can be placed at the rear of the vehicle, far from the engine and below the engine. According to the different driving methods, fuel pumps can be divided into two types: mechanically driven diaphragm type and electrically driven type. During operation, in addition to providing the fuel consumption required for engine operation, the fuel pump flow should also ensure sufficient return flow to maintain stable fuel system pressure and adequate cooling.

What Causes Uneven Tire Wear on Trucks?

Here are the specific reasons that cause uneven tire wear: 1. Incorrect wheel alignment: This leads to uneven tire wear when the two wheels on the same side or the front and rear wheels are not aligned during operation. The vehicle's self-correction causes abnormal increases in friction and accelerated wear on specific parts of the tire. 2. Inaccurate toe adjustment: The front wheels tilt slightly inward at an angle similar to pigeon toes, which is the optimal angle for high-speed stable driving. Poor adjustment of the toe angle can also cause uneven tire wear. 3. Steering gear failure: Steering gear malfunctions may also result in uneven tire wear and deviation. 4. Uneven and deformed frame: An uneven and deformed frame can also lead to tire wear. 5. Mixed tire assembly: Using tires of different specifications with significant differences in air pressure can cause uneven tire wear.

What is the difference between automatic and manual transmission for a driver's license?

The differences between automatic and manual transmission for a driver's license are as follows: 1. Different learning costs: The tuition for automatic transmission is generally higher than that for manual transmission, because the purchase cost, usage cost, and maintenance cost of automatic transmission vehicles are higher than those of manual transmission vehicles. 2. Different permitted vehicle types: A manual transmission (C1) license allows driving small and micro passenger cars, light and micro cargo trucks, light and micro special operation vehicles, and all vehicle types permitted by Class C driver's licenses. An automatic transmission (C2) license only permits driving small and micro automatic transmission passenger cars and light and micro automatic transmission cargo trucks. 3. Different test items: Starting from June 1, 2021, the 'hill start' item in the second subject test for small automatic transmission cars will be canceled, meaning the test items for automatic transmission cars in the second subject will be fewer than those for manual transmission cars.

Which indicates empty, E or F on the fuel gauge?

On the automotive fuel gauge, E stands for empty. Fuel gauge precautions: 1. Don't wait until the warning light comes on to refuel: Since the fuel pump is located inside the fuel tank and relies on gasoline for cooling and lubrication, insufficient fuel level will adversely affect the pump's normal operation and reduce its service life. 2. Avoid filling the tank completely when refueling: Gasoline expands when heated and evaporates into vapor under high summer temperatures, requiring space for accommodation. An overfilled tank with no space may cause gasoline vapor or even liquid fuel to enter the carbon canister for storage. When the carbon canister becomes saturated, the excess escapes into the air, resulting in both waste and environmental pollution.

Why Are There Scratches on the Car Body?

The reasons for scratches on the car body include friction, collisions, and improper usage. Below are details about scratches: 1. Repair: If it's only a shallow scratch on the surface paint, immediately treat it with a compound, wiping in straight lines. After the scratch disappears, use a finer compound to wipe and then apply wax, which can quickly repair the car paint scratches. 2. Treatment: Visit a 4S shop for professional paint repair. 3. Insurance Claim: The car owner can file a reimbursement request with the insurance company, presenting the policy, driver's license, and the policyholder's ID card. The owner needs to fill out an accident report form, describe the accident process, and provide contact details. Photos of the car body scratches and the vehicle's exterior should be taken for damage assessment.

What Are the Consequences of Not Tightening the Fuel Tank Cap?

Introduction to the consequences of not tightening the fuel tank cap: If the fuel tank cap is not closed properly, gasoline will evaporate from the tank cap outlet, leading to rapid fuel consumption. In case of rain, water may enter the fuel tank. In hot weather, the evaporation of gasoline can easily ignite or pose a fire hazard. Below is some related information about the fuel tank cap: 1. The fuel tank cap refers to the container on a car used for storing gasoline: It is square-shaped, made of stainless steel, and has excellent sealing properties. It only has a small circular opening, about the size of a bottle cap, which facilitates storage. 2. The fuel tank cap is generally located at the rear of the car: In modern cars, the trunk and fuel tank cap can usually be operated remotely from inside the cabin.
