Placement positions for the car fire extinguisher: 1. Trunk: The vehicle trunk is the most ideal location for placing a car fire extinguisher. If you are concerned about the extinguisher tipping over or colliding during bumpy rides, you can secure it with a mesh net. If a mesh net is not available, you can purchase adhesive Velcro or mounting brackets designed for car fire extinguishers online to fix it in place. 2. Glove Box: The storage compartment under the dashboard on the passenger side is also a good spot for the fire extinguisher. However, the glove box usually contains many personal items, and placing the extinguisher there might seem out of place. One advantage, though, is that it's easily accessible.

Will a fire extinguisher explode if left in the car during summer?

A fire extinguisher will not explode if left in the car during summer. Car fire extinguishers can be placed in the glove compartment, next to the seat, or in the trunk. These locations prevent exposure to sunlight and facilitate easy access. In theory, powder fire extinguishers can be stored at temperatures ranging from -20°C to 55°C. Normally, keeping them in the car will not cause an explosion. Regularly check the condition of the fire extinguisher. Car fire extinguishers have a pressure gauge; if the needle is in the green range, it indicates normal pressure and proper functioning. If the needle is in the yellow range, it indicates excessive pressure, and if it is in the red range, it indicates insufficient pressure. Both conditions can affect firefighting effectiveness, and the extinguisher should be replaced immediately. How to use a fire extinguisher: If the car catches fire or experiences spontaneous combustion, first retrieve the car fire extinguisher and place a warning triangle at a safe distance behind the car to prevent rear-end collisions. Since car fire extinguishers are dry powder types, shake the extinguisher up and down several times before use to loosen the powder inside, which aids in effective spraying.

How many seconds does the Leiling take to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h?

According to official data, the Leiling comes in three models: 1.2T, 1.5L, and 1.8L. The 1.2T model accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 10.37 seconds, the 1.5L model in 13 seconds, and the 1.8L model in 11.28 seconds. Factors affecting a vehicle's 0-100 km/h acceleration time include: Torque: Torque, in simple terms, indicates how much force is available. The greater the torque, the more force is applied to propel the vehicle, resulting in faster acceleration. The Weilang has a maximum torque of 250 Nm and accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 7.7 seconds. The Leiling 1.2T has a torque of 185 Nm and accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 10.37 seconds. Transmission efficiency: The transmission is the medium for power transfer and inevitably involves power loss. The higher the transmission efficiency, the better the acceleration performance. Generally, transmission efficiency ranks as follows: manual transmission > dry dual-clutch transmission > wet dual-clutch transmission > AT transmission > CVT transmission. The Leiling 1.2T is equipped with a CVT transmission. Power-to-weight ratio: The relationship between horsepower and vehicle weight is called the power-to-weight ratio (unit: Hp/T). The higher the power-to-weight ratio, the faster the acceleration. The Weilang has a power-to-weight ratio of 137 Hp/T and accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 7.7 seconds. The Leiling 1.2T has a power-to-weight ratio of 85 Hp/T and accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 10.37 seconds.

What materials are needed for vehicle annual inspection?

For vehicle annual inspection, the following materials are required: "Motor Vehicle Inspection Label Application Form", motor vehicle license, compulsory traffic insurance certificate, vehicle and vessel tax payment or tax exemption certificate, and the owner's ID card. If the inspection is handled by someone else, the agent must bring their own ID card. The relevant introduction of annual inspection is as follows: Inspection time: The vehicle annual inspection time is determined by the initial registration date of the new vehicle. For example, if the registration initial date on the motor vehicle license is June 2015, then the annual inspection time is every June. At the same time, according to Article 40 of the newly revised "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations", the owner of the motor vehicle can apply for the inspection qualification mark at the vehicle management office of the registration place within three months before the expiration of the motor vehicle inspection validity period. That is, vehicles participating in the annual inspection in June can go to the inspection line for annual inspection in April, May, and June. Vehicle annual inspection items: Appearance inspection, exhaust emission test, film light transmittance, violation check, and safety inspection, including a comprehensive inspection of the horn, brake, axle weight, chassis, ignition system, lighting system, exhaust system, license plate installation, etc.

What Causes High Idle Speed?

The causes of high idle speed in a car include a faulty idle control valve, air intake system leaks, fuel injector dripping or clogging. The reasons for sudden high idle speed are as follows: Faulty Idle Control Valve: The normal idle speed of an electronic fuel injection engine is determined by the idle control valve. The electronic control unit (ECU) calculates signals from engine speed, temperature, throttle position, and air conditioning switch, then adjusts the idle control valve to open the intake bypass channel or directly increase the throttle opening to raise the intake volume, thereby increasing the engine idle speed. If oil dirt or carbon deposits cause the idle control valve to stick or the throttle to fail to close properly, the ECU cannot accurately regulate the engine idle speed. Air Intake System Leaks: Normally, the intake volume must be strictly controlled. If there is a leak in the intake pipe, the air flow sensor cannot measure the actual intake volume, leading to inaccurate intake control by the ECU and resulting in unstable idle speed. Fuel Injector Dripping or Clogging: If the fuel injector drips or clogs, it cannot inject fuel according to the ECU's instructions, causing the air-fuel mixture to become too rich or too lean. This leads to poor performance in individual cylinders and unstable idle speed.
