When purchasing a used car, pay attention to the car's performance, structure, documentation, and appearance. The main issues are introduced as follows: Performance: Listen for any abnormal sounds, start the car, and listen to the engine noise. Structure: Check the chassis and frame for any deformation. After an accident, the frame and chassis are difficult to repair. Documentation: Documents such as the registration certificate, vehicle license, and purchase tax. Always take a test drive, whether buying a new or used car. Appearance: Inspect all corners and parts of the car for repainting, and check for wear on the tires, headlights, and bumper.

Is the JAC Refine S3 equipped with a Mitsubishi engine?

JAC Refine S3 does not use a Mitsubishi engine. It is equipped with the HFC4GB2.3D engine, which is independently developed by JAC. Engine principle: A four-stroke gasoline engine mixes air and gasoline in a certain proportion to form a good mixture, which is drawn into the cylinder during the intake stroke. The mixture is compressed, ignited, and burned to generate thermal energy. The high-temperature and high-pressure gas acts on the top of the piston, pushing the piston to perform reciprocating linear motion, and outputs mechanical energy through the connecting rod, crankshaft, and flywheel mechanism. Engine composition: The engine consists of two major mechanisms: the crank connecting rod mechanism and the valve mechanism, as well as five major systems: cooling, lubrication, ignition, fuel supply, and starting system. The main components include the cylinder block, cylinder head, piston, piston pin, connecting rod, crankshaft, flywheel, etc.

What is the reason why the central control of JAC Heyue can lock but cannot open?

The reason why the central control of JAC Heyue can lock but cannot open: If all the doors cannot be opened, then it can be determined that there is a problem with the central control. If only a single door cannot be opened, it is usually a failure of the lock actuator, and it can be replaced individually. Before replacement, check if the pull wire has come off, as it might return to normal after installation. Introduction to central control lock: The full name of the central control lock is central control door lock, which is a car accessory. Using this lock, you can remotely open and lock the door without inserting the key into the keyhole. It consists of a door lock switch, actuator, and controller. Main functions of the central control lock: When the driver locks the door next to them, the other doors are also locked simultaneously. The driver can open all doors at the same time through the door lock switch, or open a single door individually. When the driving speed reaches a certain level, all doors can lock automatically to prevent passengers from accidentally operating the door handle and causing the door to open. In addition to the door next to the driver, other doors are equipped with separate spring lock switches, which can independently control a single door.

What type of oil should be used for the JAC Refine diesel 1.9T?

JAC Refine's specialized oil model specification indicates 5W30. For JAC Refine maintenance, 5W30 oil is recommended. In northern winters, it is advised to use 5W/30 or 5W/40 oil, while in summer, 10W or 15W oil is suggested. In southern regions, 10W oil can be used all year round. Composition of engine oil: Engine oil consists of two parts: base oil and additives. The base oil is the main component of lubricating oil, determining its basic properties. Additives can compensate for and improve the shortcomings of the base oil's performance, granting it new properties, making them an important part of lubricating oil. Explanation of oil grades: 10W-40 is its SAE standard viscosity value. This viscosity value first indicates that this oil is multi-grade oil. W stands for WINTER, and the number before W represents the flow performance at low temperatures. The smaller the number, the better the starting performance at low temperatures. The number after W represents the stability of the oil at high temperatures (i.e., the likelihood of thinning). The larger the number, the better the high-temperature stability of the oil.

What is the normal gasoline pressure for Jianghuai Refine?

Jianghuai Refine's normal gasoline pressure is between 300-350kPa. Direct Injection: For vehicles with direct injection, the fuel pressure generally fluctuates around 0.3MPa. The fuel injectors installed on the cylinder head spray gasoline directly into the cylinder. This injection system requires higher injection pressure, approximately 3-5MPa. Therefore, the structure and arrangement of the injectors are relatively complex. Port Injection: In port injection systems, the injectors are installed on the intake pipe or intake manifold, spraying gasoline into the intake pipe or intake port at a pressure of 0.20-0.35MPa. The former is called intake pipe injection, while the latter is called intake port injection. Currently, intake port injection is widely used in gasoline engine electronic control systems.

Where is the fuel pump fuse located in the Jianghuai Refine?

The fuel pump of the Jianghuai Refine is located in the fuel tank of the vehicle, and the fuel pump fuse is located in the fuse box under the glove compartment on the passenger side. Upon careful observation, the fuse box can be easily identified. Powered by traditional fuel engines: The primary power source of the Jianghuai Refine still relies on traditional fuel engines. For fuel engines, general attention is usually focused on mechanical components such as pistons and cylinders, as well as electronic control units like ignition and valve timing. Few people pay attention to the fuel supply system, especially the fuel pump at the front end of the fuel supply system. Type of fuel pump in the Refine: The Jianghuai Refine mostly uses vane-type electric fuel pumps. Vane-type electric fuel pumps offer advantages such as high fuel delivery volume, high fuel pressure, stability, low noise, and long lifespan.

What is the fuel consumption of JMC Transit?

JMC Transit's MIIT comprehensive fuel consumption: 7.5L/100km. Common reasons for high fuel consumption: Tire factors: Tires are relatively easy to check, so they should be inspected first. If the tire pressure is insufficient, fuel consumption will increase. If the tire pressure is normal, then check the wear level of the tires. Severe tire wear can often lead to slipping, which also increases fuel consumption. Excessive engine carbon deposits: If there is a significant buildup of carbon deposits in the engine over a short period, it can also cause higher fuel consumption. This situation is likely due to the use of substandard fuel. The solution is to add a certain amount of cleaning agent when refueling. If the effect is not noticeable, it indicates a substantial buildup of carbon deposits in the engine. In this case, it is best to leave it to a 4S shop or repair shop, where technicians can clean the carbon deposits inside the engine.
