Which is more durable, 95 or 92 gasoline?

95 gasoline is not necessarily more durable than 92. A higher octane rating does not directly indicate better fuel quality, as the octane rating is not directly related to fuel quality. Below is relevant information about 98 and 95 gasoline: Both 92 and 95 gasoline share the same base oil, with their main difference lying in the ratio of n-heptane to isooctane. The higher the fuel octane rating, the slower the combustion rate, resulting in lower combustion knock, and requiring the engine to have a higher compression ratio. Higher-octane fuels burn more slowly, requiring the ignition timing to be advanced. The opposite is also true. In addition to checking the suitable gasoline octane rating in the car's manual, you can also find it on the fuel tank cap, which will also indicate the recommended octane. Generally, the required gasoline octane can also be determined based on the engine's compression ratio. Cars with a compression ratio between 8.6-9.9 should use 92 gasoline, while those with a compression ratio between 10.0-11.5 should use 95 gasoline. If the compression ratio is even higher, 98 gasoline is recommended. However, with the use of new technologies, the octane rating cannot be determined solely based on the compression ratio. Engines with high compression ratios can also be tuned to use lower-octane gasoline because, besides the compression ratio, other factors such as ignition timing, turbocharging technology, and Atkinson cycle technology also play a role. Generally, the higher the gasoline octane rating, the higher the octane number and the better the anti-knock performance. 92 gasoline contains 92% isooctane and 8% n-heptane, while 95 gasoline contains 95% isooctane and 5% n-heptane. Occasionally using the wrong gasoline octane rating only requires switching back to the correct one after use. However, long-term use of the wrong octane rating can have the following effects: Using a higher octane rating than recommended in a vehicle designed for lower octane will not cause damage, but the increased octane number may alter the fuel's ignition point, leading to delayed combustion in the engine. This reduces the engine's power output and thermal efficiency, resulting in poorer performance. Using a lower octane rating than recommended in a vehicle designed for higher octane can cause engine knock. Because the octane number is too low, the fuel's ignition point decreases, causing premature ignition during the compression stroke. If combustion occurs before the spark plug fires during the compression stroke, resistance is created during the upward stroke. This resistance makes the engine run very unstably. If the knock is imperceptible, it only increases noise without significant engine damage. However, noticeable knocking indicates severe engine conditions, affecting not only driving stability but also causing abnormal wear on pistons and cylinders, and in severe cases, cylinder scoring.

Can You Get License Plates at a 4S Store?

You can get license plates at a 4S store. After purchasing a vehicle, consumers do not need to go to the vehicle management office for registration. They can handle all vehicle-related services on-site at the 4S store, including vehicle sales, insurance purchases, and license plate selection. The required materials for license plate registration include: vehicle certification, triplicate invoice, purchase tax certificate, original ID card, and photocopy. For non-local residents, a temporary residence permit (original and photocopy) is also required. Details are as follows: Vehicle Certification: The vehicle certification is crucial and mandatory for license plate registration. When purchasing a vehicle, be sure to confirm with the 4S store whether the vehicle certification will be delivered with the vehicle or the expected delivery time to avoid delays in license plate registration due to late delivery of the certification. Keep the Triplicate Invoice: After purchasing the vehicle, the 4S store will issue a triplicate invoice. Be sure to keep it safe, as it will be needed for subsequent license plate registration. The invoice consists of red, yellow, and blue copies. Generally, the red and yellow copies need to be submitted, while the yellow copy should be kept by the buyer. Pay the Vehicle Purchase Tax and Obtain the Tax Certificate: After purchasing the vehicle, promptly pay the vehicle purchase tax at the nearest vehicle management office. Once the tax is paid, you will receive the original and duplicate tax certificates, which should be kept safe. Register and Inspect the Vehicle at the Vehicle Management Office: Once all procedures are complete, you can go to the vehicle management office to apply for a license plate. A specialized traffic police officer will inspect the vehicle, primarily checking the vehicle identification code, appearance, and warning triangle. Be sure to prepare these in advance. New Vehicle License Plate Selection Methods: "Self-Selection": Submit the self-selected license plate confirmation voucher and payment invoice to the vehicle management office business hall to complete the license and certificate procedures. You will then receive the vehicle license, registration certificate, inspection qualification mark, and temporary license plate. "Online Selection": Submit the online self-selected license plate confirmation voucher and payment invoice to the vehicle management office business hall to complete the license and certificate procedures. You will then receive the vehicle license, registration certificate, inspection qualification mark, and temporary license plate. "Random Selection (10 Choose 1)": Submit the selection slip printed by the system and the payment invoice to the vehicle management office business hall to complete the license and certificate procedures. You will then receive the vehicle license, registration certificate, and inspection qualification mark. Afterward, go to the license plate installation area to collect and install the plate. License Plate Selection Rules on the Traffic Police 12123 App: The pre-selection period is from 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM daily. You have 20 chances to self-select a number, and only number segments released over 7 days ago are eligible for self-selection. Random selection allows 5 attempts, each displaying 10 numbers with a 90-second selection time per batch. You can first check online whether your desired number has already been registered to avoid wasting a self-selection opportunity. Note down the released number segments, but remember that numbers released within the last 7 days can only be selected randomly, not self-selected. You can start with random selection, which is faster and still offers a good chance of getting a desirable number. Each batch has a 90-second display time. If random selection does not yield a satisfactory number, you can then try self-selection. Self-selected numbers follow a specific sequence. If your first self-selected number is available, you can directly claim it. Pay attention to the order of self-selected numbers.
