Meng is the license plate number for Inner Mongolia. The first character of the license plate is a Chinese character, representing the provincial-level administrative region where the vehicle is registered, which is the abbreviation of provinces, municipalities directly under the central government, and autonomous regions. The second character on the license plate is an English letter, representing the prefecture-level administrative region where the license plate is registered, which is the letter code for prefecture-level cities, regions, autonomous prefectures, and leagues. This is usually ranked by the provincial vehicle management office based on the status of each prefecture-level administrative region. The license plate codes for various regions in Inner Mongolia are: MengA for Hohhot City, MengB for Baotou City, MengC for Wuhai City, MengD for Chifeng City, MengE for Hulunbuir City, MengF for Xing'an League, MengG for Tongliao City, MengH for Xilin Gol League, MengJ for Ulanqab City, MengK for Ordos City, MengL for Bayannur City, and MengM for Alxa League.

When it comes to license plate numbers, 'Meng' is the abbreviation for Inner Mongolia. In China's license plate system, the first Chinese character represents the abbreviated name of the provincial-level administrative region, so 'Meng' specifically refers to the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. As someone who frequently drives long distances in North China, I've traveled to Inner Mongolia several times. Places like Hohhot and Baotou are filled with license plates starting with 'Meng A' or 'Meng B'. Inner Mongolia has vast territories and sometimes challenging road conditions, especially with heavy snow and ice in winter. Recognizing license plates can help with navigation planning during self-driving trips. The color of the license plate also distinguishes the type of vehicle: blue plates are for private cars, while yellow plates are for large vehicles. The 'Meng' character at the beginning makes it easy to identify the origin at a glance. If you want to learn more, you can consult the local vehicle management office. License plates not only indicate the region but also reflect local customs and culture.

The 'Meng' license plate is definitely a symbol of Inner Mongolia. I've been in the freight business for some years, and often see 'Meng' plates when driving heavy trucks across the grasslands. In China, provincial license plates start with Chinese characters, with 'Meng' representing Inner Mongolia, making it easy to identify the vehicle's origin. Logistics here in Inner Mongolia are bustling, and unclear license plates can hinder communication, so it's advisable for vehicle owners to keep their plates clean and unobstructed. The license plate system has been stable since its standardization in 1992, with the 'Meng' character being highly recognizable. Safety comes first when driving, and observing license plates during long-distance trips can help prevent fatigue.

During my trip to Inner Mongolia, I noticed license plates starting with 'Meng' everywhere, which is the identifier for the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. Chinese license plates are designed with provincial abbreviations, and 'Meng' represents this region. Driving on the grassland highways, these license plates act like local name cards, adding fun to the journey. Inner Mongolia has vast territory, so accurate license plates are beneficial for traffic management. It's recommended to use navigation apps to assist in recognition during travel.

Will crossing the line at night be captured?

Crossing the line at night will be captured. As long as there are electronic surveillance cameras, driving over the line at any time will result in being photographed and fined. Detour to avoid emergencies: If an accident or natural disaster affects the road ahead, making it impassable for an extended period and forcing vehicles behind to detour by crossing the line, this will not be treated as a traffic violation. Follow the instructions of traffic police: According to the Road Traffic Safety Law, when traffic signals are malfunctioning and there are traffic police directing on-site, drivers should follow the instructions of the traffic police. Special vehicles performing tasks: If traffic violations such as running a red light or crossing solid lines occur while yielding to special vehicles like fire trucks or ambulances, these actions will not be considered violations. If a penalty notice is issued due to being captured by electronic surveillance, an administrative reconsideration can be requested to revoke the penalty.

Is it normal to have clearance between the upper and lower parts of the crankshaft?

If the clearance is reasonable, it is normal. Otherwise, the high temperature during operation may cause the crankshaft to expand and seize. However, excessive clearance is not acceptable as it will generate significant noise. Introduction to Crankshaft: The crankshaft is the most critical component in an engine. It receives the force transmitted by the connecting rod and converts it into torque, which is then output through the crankshaft to drive other engine accessories. The crankshaft is subjected to the combined effects of centrifugal force from rotating masses, periodically varying gas inertia forces, and reciprocating inertia forces, resulting in bending and torsional loads. Therefore, the crankshaft must have sufficient strength and stiffness, with wear-resistant journal surfaces, uniform operation, and good balance. Crankshaft Structure: To reduce the mass of the crankshaft and the centrifugal force generated during operation, the crankshaft journals are often hollow. Oil holes are drilled on each journal surface to allow the introduction or discharge of oil for lubricating the journal surfaces. To minimize stress concentration, transition arcs are used at the connections between the main journals, crankpins, and crank arms.

Where is the car air conditioning expansion valve located?

Small car air conditioning expansion valves are generally located at the condenser inlet. Below is relevant information about the air conditioning expansion valve: 1. Thermal expansion valve: Also known as a throttle valve, the thermal expansion valve is one of the four major components in a car air conditioning refrigeration system (evaporator, compressor, condenser, and expansion valve). It senses the superheat of refrigerant vapor at the evaporator outlet to adjust the opening degree of the expansion valve, thereby controlling the flow of liquid refrigerant entering the evaporator. 2. Classification: Thermal expansion valves are divided into internally equalized and externally equalized types based on their balancing method: The working principles of internally equalized and externally equalized expansion valves are basically the same, with the difference being that the diaphragm of an internally equalized valve senses the evaporator inlet pressure. When the pressure drop in the evaporator is too large, it reduces the superheat sensed by the power head, causing insufficient valve opening. In contrast, the diaphragm of an externally equalized valve senses the evaporator outlet pressure, avoiding the influence of evaporator pressure drop on valve opening and overcoming the shortcomings of internally equalized valves.

Why don't new cars need to go to the DMV for annual inspection?

Because it can be done online. You can apply online by logging into the DMV website and submitting the relevant materials. Annual inspection regulations: In 2021, the DMV's new regulations state that starting from September 1st, the annual inspection process has been readjusted, and it will no longer be necessary to visit the DMV to collect the inspection certificate. The new regulations indicate that new cars within six years do not require an annual inspection, nor do they need to visit the DMV to collect the inspection certificate. The DMV states that as long as you log into the DMV website, complete the information according to your details, and follow the steps for review to obtain the inspection certificate, the relevant department will mail the required materials or the inspection certificate to the address specified by the vehicle owner. Applicable scope: This only applies to new car owners who need to obtain an inspection certificate from the DMV within six years. However, owners of cars older than six years still need to undergo annual inspections.

Why does the car bounce so much after installing coilover suspension?

It may be due to the damping being set too stiff or too high. Coilover suspension adjustment instructions: The higher the spring seat height, the stiffer the spring performs, and vice versa; When adjusting the spring seat, the vehicle height will also change proportionally (definitely not 1:1); Only when the damping coefficient matches the spring can the highest performance be achieved; Damping is not the bigger the better - excessive damping will cause insufficient spring travel, resulting in severe bouncing of the entire vehicle; Adjusting the shock body height does not affect spring stiffness. Meaning of coilover suspension: Coilover suspension (Height Adjustable Damper) - derived from racing technology, refers to shock absorbers with adjustable (spring) height design; When the vehicle is stationary, the ground clearance at the four corners of the body has a significant impact on the wheel load at that position: Increasing the ground clearance at the left rear corner will increase the load on the left rear wheel and its diagonal wheel (i.e. the right front wheel), while reducing the load on the other diagonal wheels (left front and right rear wheels).
