How to Solve Excessive Engine Carbon Deposits?

There are 23 solutions for excessive carbon deposits in car engines: 1. Fuel additives: The amine substances in fuel additives can clean carbon deposits and other substances accumulated in the engine system over time. Regular use in small amounts can inhibit carbon deposit formation and reduce engine abnormalities caused by carbon deposits. Some fuel additives can also improve the octane number of the fuel to a certain extent, reducing or eliminating engine knocking caused by insufficient fuel octane. 2. Regular throttle cleaning: This task can be done by yourself without needing to visit a mechanic. The owner only needs to prepare a bottle of carburetor cleaner. Spray the cleaner on the throttle and intake tract to clean the throttle. Of course, if the carbon deposit issue is too severe, professional repair personnel should be consulted for handling.

Why does the windshield fog up when using air conditioning in summer?

Reasons for windshield fogging when using air conditioning in summer: The outside temperature is lower than the inside temperature, causing water vapor inside the car to form many tiny water droplets. Since the surface of the windshield is not perfectly smooth (it has many small pits), these droplets adhere to the windshield, resulting in fogging. Here are two solutions: 1. Lower the temperature: Turn on the air conditioning to reduce the interior temperature to a certain level. 2. Use detergent: Apply a small amount of detergent to a cloth and wipe the inside surface of the windshield. This will prevent fogging even without air conditioning, as the detergent fills the pits on the glass surface, preventing water droplets from adhering. This method is highly effective in practice.

Where is the USB port in the Magotan?

Magotan USB port is located inside the storage compartment in the front center armrest. This compartment may be equipped with original USB port, AUX IN port or multimedia port. The car charger can only charge after the car engine is started. Since the voltage provided by the car is relatively low, the car charger only needs to have an overload protection circuit inside. The front end of the car charger socket is designed with a fuse. When the current exceeds the range that the overload protection circuit can withstand, the fuse will immediately blow to provide protection. Magotan is a B-class sedan under Volkswagen. The length, width and height of this car are 4865 mm, 1832 mm and 1471 mm respectively, and the wheelbase is 2871 mm.
