The solution for a diesel vehicle filled with gasoline is: immediately stop the vehicle, drain all the gasoline from the fuel tank, clean the fuel tank, engine, and fuel lines, replace any damaged parts, and then refill with diesel. The hazards of filling a diesel vehicle with gasoline are: 1. Poor fuel atomization, vehicle shaking, and black smoke from the exhaust pipe; 2. Clogging of spark plugs and ignition coils; 3. Disrupting the stability of the fuel system and causing engine damage. Precautions for refueling are: 1. Choose to refuel when the temperature is relatively low; 2. If the vehicle is not used for a long time or used infrequently, keep a small amount of fuel; 3. Avoid refueling when a tanker truck is unloading fuel; 4. Turn off the engine when refueling a gasoline vehicle.

What is the minimum ground clearance of the Mercedes-Benz GLB chassis?

The minimum ground clearance of the UK Mercedes-Benz GLB is 123mm. Here is the relevant information: 1. Minimum ground clearance refers to the distance between the lowest point of the car (excluding the wheels) and the supporting plane when the car is fully loaded and stationary. It is used to characterize the car's ability to pass over obstacles such as stones and tree stumps without collision. The smaller the ground clearance, the worse the ability to overcome obstacles. 2. The larger the minimum ground clearance, the stronger the vehicle's ability to pass over obstacles or uneven ground, but the higher the center of gravity, which reduces stability; the smaller the minimum ground clearance, the weaker the vehicle's ability to pass over obstacles or uneven ground, but the lower the center of gravity, which can increase stability. 3.
