Car fire extinguisher pressure: The green zone on the pressure gauge indicates normal pressure, red signifies insufficient pressure, and yellow represents excessive pressure.

Why does the fuel gauge always show not full after refueling?

Reasons why the fuel gauge shows not full after refueling are as follows: 1. Occasionally, it may be a normal phenomenon. The fuel tank was not actually full, and the fuel nozzle jumped because gasoline vapor 'pushed' the nozzle to jump. 2. If the refueling speed is too fast, it will generate expanding vapor. Additionally, if the carbon canister solenoid valve is closed at this time, the gasoline vapor in the carbon canister will accumulate more and more. After the fuel nozzle jumps, there is some vapor between the fuel inlet and the fuel tank. 3. If the fuel gauge often shows not full after refueling, it indicates a problem. The most common issue is a problem with the fuel pump's float. Solution: Replace the fuel pump.

How to Handle Car Paint Repair Interfaces?

Steps for handling car paint repair interfaces are as follows: 1. Choose a dust-free space. 2. Use 3M sandpaper or 2000-grit sandpaper to remove the clear coat at the interface location. 3. Apply the base coat, being careful not to spray beyond the interface area. 4. Apply the clear coat—the first layer should cover the base coat area, while the second layer should not fully cover the interface area, leaving a gap of about five centimeters. 5. Sprinkle interface solution on the interface area to properly treat it. Clean off any mud or sand around the damaged area. If the scratch is deep, apply putty. Before applying putty, use P240 sandpaper to roughen the damaged area to enhance putty adhesion. Mix an appropriate amount of body filler and hardener evenly. When applying the putty, first fill in the dents or scratches firmly, then use a scraper at a 45-degree angle to level the damaged area, which should be slightly higher than the surface of the part. Use an iodine-tungsten lamp to speed up drying. Once dry, sand it smooth with P320 sandpaper, then polish it with P800 sandpaper before applying primer. For shallow scratches, directly sand the damaged area smooth with P320 sandpaper. The radius from the center of the damage to the feathered edge should ideally be 60-100MM. Then, polish it with P800 sandpaper. Use an air gun to clean off any moisture and dust from the surface and gaps. Mask off an 80CM radius around the damaged area with masking paper before applying primer. When spraying primer, ensure the air pressure is not too high—keep it below 2KPa, and use a wet-on-wet half-spray technique.
