The panel above the wheel is called a fender. The detailed introduction of the fender is as follows: 1. Introduction: The fender is a plate structure installed behind the outer frame of the wheel, usually made of high-quality rubber material, and sometimes engineering plastic. The fender is usually a metal panel, leather panel, plastic panel, or rubber panel installed behind the wheel of a motor vehicle. 2. Function: The main function is to prevent mud from splashing onto the body or people, which would make the body or person look unattractive, and also to prevent mud from splashing onto the tie rod or ball joint, causing premature rust.

Why Do You Need to Turn Off the Engine When Refueling?

Turning off the engine during refueling is to prevent ignition and explosion. Gasoline is an electrolyte, classified as a flammable substance with high volatility. When refueling at a gas station, the concentration of fuel vapor mixed with air around the fuel tank increases significantly. Combined with the fact that gas stations are already dense areas of fuel vapor, it becomes extremely easy to reach the explosive limit. Once the explosive limit is reached, even static electricity—let alone an open flame—can trigger an explosion. If the engine is left running, it continues to operate at high speed, and the vehicle's electrical current flows normally. In this state, any electrical leakage could be extremely hazardous. Additionally, while the engine is running, the exhaust pipe continuously emits tailpipe emissions, often accompanied by sparks. If gasoline were to drip onto the exhaust pipe at this moment, it could easily catch fire.

What to Do When the Fuel Tank Cap Suddenly Won't Open?

The solutions for a fuel tank cap that suddenly won't open are: 1. If the fuel tank cap is stuck or rusted, you can ask the gas station staff for help. They can gently pry or tap it while you press the fuel tank cap switch to open it. 2. Motor damage. The emergency switch for the vehicle's fuel tank cap is located under the cover on the fuel tank cap side of the trunk. Pull the emergency handle with a little force while pressing the fuel tank cap to open it. 3. The fuel tank cap spring has lost its elasticity. The owner can handle this by adding a small spring to the protruding rubber pad of the fuel tank to increase the elasticity between the fuel tank cap and the locking device.

What Causes Small Bubbles in Car Paint?

Paint bubbling may be due to poor paint quality or improper repainting procedures where the primer wasn't fully dry before applying the topcoat. If there's moisture trapped between the topcoat and body filler, heat can cause evaporation and air pockets, leading to paint blistering. Other possible causes: It could also result from rust formation on the underlying metal surface due to moisture exposure. Untreated paint bubbles not only affect appearance but will gradually expand, eventually causing the paint to crack and peel off. This damages the car body, leading to complicated and costly repairs. If paint bubbling occurs due to paint quality issues or improper repainting, you may be eligible for compensation. It's recommended to visit an authorized repair shop or 4S store for professional assessment and treatment by qualified technicians.

Press the Clutch First or Shift Gears First?

Release the accelerator first, then press the clutch. After fully depressing the clutch and engaging the gear, press the accelerator to start. Additional Information: Precautions for Clutch Usage: Cleaning the Clutch: The clutch must be thoroughly cleaned before installation to remove anti-rust grease and debris. Coaxial Installation: The clutch can be installed coaxially or on separate shafts. Axial fixation is mandatory, and neither the driving nor the driven parts should have axial play. For separate shaft installation, the coaxiality between the driving and driven shafts should not exceed 0.1mm. Adding Lubricating Oil: For wet electromagnetic clutches, lubricating oil must be added between the friction plates during operation. Lubrication methods include splash lubrication, oil bath lubrication, and central shaft oil supply lubrication. For high-speed and high-frequency operations, the central shaft oil supply method is recommended.

Does ETC need to be powered?

ETC does not need to be powered. There are two power supply methods for ETC devices: 1. Solar power supply: During the day when there is sunlight, the ETC device has solar panels that can convert solar energy into light energy for automatic charging. Solar power supply is the more commonly used power supply method and does not require manual charging; 2. Battery power supply: Normally, the ETC battery can last for 5 years. ETC is an electronic toll collection system that does not require stopping. The ETC dedicated lane is for vehicles equipped with ETC on-board units, using electronic toll collection methods. The ETC non-stop toll collection system is a more advanced road and bridge toll collection method. Through the dedicated short-range microwave communication between the on-board electronic tag installed on the vehicle's windshield and the microwave antenna in the ETC lane of the toll station, and using computer networking technology for backend settlement processing with the bank, the purpose of vehicles passing through road and bridge toll stations without stopping to pay tolls is achieved.

How many kilometers can a Lingpai run on a full tank of gas?

This mainly depends on the driving conditions. On the highway, it can run 600 kilometers, while in the city, it can run 300 kilometers. The following factors affect fuel consumption: Road conditions: Driving on wide roads is definitely more fuel-efficient than driving on rural dirt roads. Frequent highway driving is also more fuel-efficient than frequent city driving. This has nothing to do with whether the car is Japanese, German, American, or French. For example, driving a new Jetta can achieve over 3 mao per kilometer, and at least no Japanese car has been found to achieve that. Cars with larger displacements are indeed more fuel-consuming in the city, but they become more fuel-efficient on the highway when speed increases. Low average speed: Cars with low average speeds are definitely more fuel-consuming. Those with an average speed of around 15 km/h cannot have a fuel consumption of less than 10 liters, because the idle time is basically longer than the driving time.
