The oil filter is located at the front top of the car engine and below the engine. The oil filter, also known as the oil cleaner, is used to filter out impurities, gum, and moisture from the oil, delivering clean oil to various lubrication points. To reduce friction resistance between moving parts in the engine and minimize wear on components, oil is continuously supplied to the friction surfaces of moving parts, forming a lubricating oil film for lubrication. The method for replacing the oil filter is as follows: 1. Preheat the engine; 2. Use a machine to extract the old oil; 3. Remove the old oil filter and replace it with a new one; 4. Add new oil.

Can a car battery with 750 be replaced with 700?

Small car battery 750 cannot be replaced with 700. Reasons why the battery cannot be replaced: The charging and discharging of the vehicle's battery are managed by a control unit. Parameters such as battery capacity, charging and discharging current, and time are written into the program. If some of these parameters change, the battery management system will report fault codes, limit the use of certain functions, or even command the engine to shut down, resulting in the vehicle being unable to start. Battery maintenance: To extend the service life of the battery, it is necessary to maintain the overall performance of the car in good condition, avoid excessive discharge, and prevent the battery from being frequently in a depleted state.

What is the voltage of a new energy vehicle's power battery?

New energy vehicle power battery voltage ranges from 384-400V, depending on whether lithium iron phosphate, ternary lithium, or other materials are typically used. New Energy Vehicles: New energy vehicles refer to automobiles that utilize unconventional vehicle fuels as power sources (or use conventional vehicle fuels with new types of onboard power devices), integrating advanced technologies in vehicle power control and driving systems to form vehicles with advanced technical principles, new technologies, and innovative structures. Battery Types: Lithium-ion batteries, nickel-metal hydride batteries, fuel cells, lead-acid batteries, and supercapacitors. Among these, lead-acid batteries are widely used as starting power sources for internal combustion engine vehicles. They offer good reliability, readily available raw materials, and low cost; their specific power also basically meets the power requirements of electric vehicles.

Can motorcycles have decals?

Motorcycles can have decals. Precautions for adding decals to motorcycles: Decals must not cover the license plate, alter the original color of the vehicle, or exceed one-third of the body area. They need to be removed during annual inspections. Choosing motorcycle decals: Since decals are applied externally and exposed to wind, rain, and sunlight for extended periods, materials like PVC or PET are recommended. These materials offer excellent waterproofing, acid and alkali resistance, and flame retardancy, ensuring long-lasting durability and vibrant printed graphics. Applying transparent decals on the rear window can filter some light, preventing glare from high beams of vehicles behind. Using reflective decals enhances safety during nighttime driving.

How many years has the China 5 standard been implemented?

The China 5 standard was implemented for 4 years. The China 5 emission standard was fully implemented nationwide on July 1, 2017, with its emission control level equivalent to the European Union's Euro 5 standard. The China 5 standard, officially known as the National Fifth Stage Emission Standard for Motor Vehicles, aligns with the Euro 5 emission standard. Additional information: 1. When the number of vehicles is low, the atmosphere's self-cleaning capacity can still neutralize the toxins emitted by cars. However, with the rapid increase in vehicle numbers, traffic congestion has become commonplace, and the excessive vehicle emissions pose significant harm. 2. According to estimates by the World Resources Institute and China's National Environmental Monitoring Center, 7 out of the 10 most air-polluted cities globally are in China. Therefore, the Chinese government places great emphasis on addressing urban environmental pollution caused by vehicle emissions. The national environmental protection department and automotive companies are accelerating efforts to meet China 3 and China 6 standards. Controlling vehicle emission pollution has become an urgent and critical responsibility for environmental protection agencies, automobile manufacturers, and all sectors of society.
