When it comes to the second maintenance, or the second service, I believe the key is to change the engine oil and oil filter. Engine oil is like the blood of a car, lubricating the engine and reducing wear; the filter removes impurities to prevent clogging. Some car models recommend changing the air filter at the same time, especially if you often drive in dusty areas, as it ensures clean air intake and improves fuel efficiency. I suggest checking the vehicle manual, which will list the specific replacement items in detail; during the second maintenance, don’t neglect checking the tires, brake fluid, and coolant to prevent oil leaks or other hidden issues. Regular maintenance can extend the engine’s lifespan, reduce the risk of sudden breakdowns, and make long-distance driving safer. Saving money by skipping replacements might seem fine in the short term, but it can damage the engine in the long run and make repairs more difficult.

Can Spark Plugs Continue to Be Used After Carbon Deposit Cleaning?

Spark plugs can continue to be used after carbon deposit cleaning. Location of Spark Plugs: Spark plugs are installed on the side or top of the engine. In earlier models, spark plugs were connected to the distributor via ignition cables. Over the past decade, most car engines have been modified to connect the ignition coil directly to the spark plug. Working Principle of Spark Plugs: Under high voltage, the air between the center electrode and the side electrode of the spark plug rapidly ionizes, forming positively charged ions and negatively charged free electrons. When the voltage between the electrodes reaches a certain level, the number of ions and electrons in the gas increases like an avalanche, causing the air to lose its insulating properties. A discharge channel forms in the gap, resulting in a "breakdown" phenomenon. At this point, the gas becomes a luminous body, known as a "spark." Along with the heat expansion, a "crackling" sound is also produced. The temperature of this electric spark can reach as high as 2000-3000°C, which is sufficient to ignite the air-fuel mixture in the engine combustion chamber.

What Does a Yellow Indicator Light on the Dashboard Mean?

When a yellow indicator light appears on the dashboard, it indicates a malfunction in the vehicle's external lighting system. Below is relevant information about other dashboard warning lights: Tire Pressure Monitoring Light: This indicator features a horizontal line with small serrations at the bottom, an exclamation mark in the middle, and is yellow in color. It represents the tire pressure monitoring system. When illuminated, it signifies abnormal tire pressure in one or more tires. You should stop immediately to inspect the tires for any visible issues. If any abnormalities are found, do not continue driving. Even if no visible issues are present, promptly visit an auto repair shop for inspection. General Fault Warning Light: This yellow triangular indicator with an exclamation mark in the middle represents general vehicle faults. Multiple factors can trigger this light, including poor contact or malfunction in external lights (position lights, tail lights, turn signals, rear fog lights, license plate lights, etc.), damaged wiring harness in the trunk, traction control system alerts or malfunctions, parking sensor failures, etc. The most common causes are brake light and license plate light failures. Automatic Transmission Warning Light: This yellow gear-shaped indicator with an exclamation mark inside signals automatic transmission issues. When illuminated, it indicates transmission malfunctions, low transmission fluid levels, or the need for fluid replacement.

Is a tire pressure of 1.9 normal?

A tire pressure of 1.9 is not normal; it is too low. The normal tire pressure should be between 2.2 and 2.5 bar. The effects of low tire pressure include: 1. Damage and abnormal wear to the tire bead area, reducing tire strength and increasing the risk of blowouts during high-speed driving; 2. Increased movement in various parts of the tire, leading to excessive rolling and abnormal heat generation, which can damage the tire bead area and cause abnormal wear; 3. A significant increase in friction with the ground, causing a sharp rise in tire temperature, softening of the tire, and a rapid decrease in strength. Methods for tire maintenance include: 1. Regularly removing debris from the tire tread; 2. Checking tire wear and replacing tires promptly; 3. Periodically checking tire pressure; 4. Repairing tires in a timely manner.
