The gasoline pump of the Highlander is installed inside the fuel tank. The gasoline pump is responsible for drawing gasoline from the fuel tank and delivering it through the pipelines and gasoline filter to the float chamber of the carburetor. It is precisely because of the gasoline pump that the fuel tank can be placed at the rear of the vehicle, away from the engine, and positioned lower than the engine. Therefore, for newly installed pipeline systems and liquid storage tanks, thorough cleaning is essential to prevent solid impurities from entering the mechanical sealing surface and causing seal failure. Types of Oil Pumps: An oil pump is a lightweight and compact pump, categorized into three main types: in-line, distributor, and unit pumps. An oil pump requires a power source to operate, with the lower camshaft driven by the engine crankshaft gear. Composition of Oil Pumps: The oil pump features a housing made of aluminum-containing material, with a movable molded component inside the housing. This movable component is at least partially made of a sinterable, iron-based alloy material that contains at least one austenitic phase.

Are New Energy Vehicles Subject to Traffic Restrictions in Other Cities?

New energy vehicles are not subject to traffic restrictions in other cities. On June 6th, the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, and the Ministry of Commerce jointly issued the "Implementation Plan for Promoting the Upgrade of Key Consumer Goods and Smoothing Resource Recycling (2019-2020)", which explicitly states that local governments must not impose traffic restrictions or purchase limitations on new energy vehicles, and any existing policies should be immediately abolished. The plan clearly emphasizes the need to resolutely eliminate barriers to passenger vehicle consumption. It strictly prohibits local governments nationwide from introducing new vehicle purchase restrictions. Regions that have already implemented purchase restrictions should make corrections and accelerate the transition from purchase restrictions to usage guidance, based on factors such as urban traffic congestion, pollution control, and traffic demand management. Additionally, local governments should reasonably designate congested zones according to traffic conditions and explore policies for differentiated vehicle usage inside and outside these zones. In principle, no purchase restrictions should be applied outside congested zones. Furthermore, the plan advocates vigorously advancing the development of new energy vehicles. It requires all provinces and cities to strictly implement the directives from the State Council executive meetings, ensuring that no traffic restrictions or purchase limitations are imposed on new energy vehicles, and any existing policies should be promptly abolished. Policy support should be provided to car-free families purchasing their first household new energy vehicle. Regions with the necessary conditions are encouraged to offer preferential policies for new energy vehicles, such as reduced parking fees, and to explore the establishment of zero-emission zone pilots.

What does a small wrench on the car display mean?

A small wrench on the car display is a maintenance reminder function set by the manufacturer to alert the owner that the vehicle requires servicing. Different car models from various companies have different preset maintenance intervals. The maintenance cycle is pre-set when the vehicle leaves the factory, so the small wrench symbol will appear after a certain mileage, typically between 5,000 to 8,000 kilometers, with some original factory settings exceeding 8,000 kilometers. Car maintenance primarily covers the engine system, transmission system, air conditioning system, cooling system, fuel system, power steering system, and more. The purpose of car maintenance is to keep the vehicle clean, maintain normal technical conditions, eliminate potential hazards, prevent malfunctions, slow down deterioration, and extend the vehicle's service life.

Where is the car water pump located?

The car water pump is located inside the engine block. The function of the car water pump is to pressurize the coolant, ensuring its circulation within the cooling system. It continuously circulates water through the radiator and various components of the engine block to dissipate heat, preventing the engine from overheating. Symptoms of a damaged water pump: 1. A damaged water pump can weaken or even stop the cooling circulation, leading to coolant boiling; 2. Unusual noises from the water pump while the engine is running; 3. Coolant leakage near the water pump area of the engine, with traces of coolant color left on the water pump vent holes, resulting in symptoms like high water temperature due to insufficient coolant. Car engines widely use centrifugal water pumps, whose basic structure consists of components such as the water pump housing, connecting plate or pulley, water pump shaft and bearings or integrated shaft bearings, water pump impeller, and water seal device, making it a major component of the vehicle.

Should an automatic car be shifted to neutral when waiting at a traffic light?

When waiting at a traffic light in an automatic car, it is safer to shift to neutral and engage the handbrake. Below are detailed introductions to the car gears: P gear is the parking gear: When the gear lever is in the P position, the transmission is in neutral inside, but the output shaft is mechanically locked. At this time, the car will stop in place even without stepping on the brake. It is generally used when the car is parked for a long time. When shifting into P gear, the car must be completely stationary. Do not shift into P gear when the car is not fully stopped, and always engage the handbrake. When parking on a slope, you need to engage the handbrake first before shifting into P gear. R gear is the reverse gear: When the gear lever is in the R position, the rotation direction of the transmission output shaft is opposite to that of the engine, allowing the car to move backward. When shifting into R gear, the car must be completely stationary. Do not shift into R gear when the car is not fully stopped. N gear is the neutral gear: When the gear lever is in the N position, the gears inside the transmission are idling, and the clutch is not engaged. The load on the transmission is minimal at this time. N gear is generally used for short-term parking. In addition, when towing the car, the transmission should also be shifted into N gear. D gear is the driving gear: When the gear lever is in the D position, the gears inside the transmission automatically switch between the lowest and highest gears according to factors such as vehicle speed and throttle opening, based on the preset shifting pattern. In most cases, you can drive using D gear.

How to Register a License Plate After Successful Online Selection?

For license plate numbers selected online, it generally takes about five working days to receive the plate after confirmation by the vehicle management office. If the online selection is successful, the selected plate number will be reserved for three working days starting from the next day (extended in case of holidays or public rest days). The vehicle owner must complete the vehicle inspection and registration application within this period. Failure to complete the registration within the specified time will result in the invalidation of the selected plate number. Relevant information about license plates is as follows: 1. Introduction: License plates, commonly known as vehicle plates, refer to the plates mounted on the front and rear of a vehicle, displaying the vehicle's registration number, registration region, or other relevant information. 2. Function: License plates serve to number and record information for vehicles, primarily allowing identification of the vehicle's region of registration and enabling access to the owner's details and registration information through the plate number.
