Spark plug brands that are considered better include Bosch, NGK, Denso, Suzuki, Three-dimensional, Makun, Kust, Honeywell, Autolite, etc. A spark plug is a crucial component in the ignition system of a gasoline engine. It introduces high voltage into the combustion chamber and causes a spark to jump across the electrode gap, thereby igniting the combustible air-fuel mixture in the cylinder. Under high voltage, the air between the center electrode and the side electrode of the spark plug rapidly ionizes, forming positively charged ions and negatively charged free electrons. When the voltage between the electrodes reaches a certain level, the number of ions and electrons in the gas increases like an avalanche, causing the air to lose its insulating properties. A discharge channel forms across the gap, resulting in a "breakdown" phenomenon. At this point, the gas becomes a luminous body, known as a "spark." Along with the heat and expansion, a "crackling" sound is also produced. The temperature of this electric spark can reach as high as 2000-3000°C, which is sufficient to ignite the air-fuel mixture in the cylinder's combustion chamber.

What is the cylinder pressure of a car engine?

Automobile engine cylinder pressure: for gasoline engines, it is around 1000KPA; for diesel engines, it is around 2000KPA. Most fuel-injected engines have a cylinder pressure between 1200 and 1400kPa, while a few high-compression-ratio engines may have cylinder pressures above 1700kPa. The original design cylinder pressure of an engine mainly depends on the combustion chamber volume, the engine's compression ratio, and whether it has a supercharger. Cylinder pressure test results may show three conditions: excessively high cylinder pressure, standard compliance, or excessively low cylinder pressure. If the measured cylinder pressure exceeds the manufacturer's specified standard value, it is considered excessively high; if the measured cylinder pressure is below 80% to 85% of the manufacturer's specified standard value, it is considered excessively low.

Can the Subject 4 Exam Be Scheduled in a Different Location?

Subject 4 can be scheduled in a different location. If the applicant changes their residence due to work, study, or other reasons after completing some subjects, they can apply once to continue the exam in a different location, but cannot change back. Subsequent exams and certificate collection will take place at the last confirmed residence location. The required procedures for scheduling the exam in a different location: The applicant only needs to use their ID card to apply for a small vehicle driver's license anywhere in the country, and no longer needs to submit proof of residence or temporary residence permits. Students only need to bring their ID card and photos to the local vehicle management office to complete the procedures for the Subject 4 exam in a different location.

Why Can't You Turn on the Air Conditioning When the Car is Parked?

Here are the specific reasons why you shouldn't idle with the air conditioning on: High fuel consumption: Keeping the air conditioning on while idling after parking consumes a lot of fuel because the compressor relies on the engine's idle operation, which leads to incomplete combustion of gasoline and easily causes carbon buildup. Toxic substances production: Incompletely burned gasoline produces toxic substances such as carbon monoxide. With the car windows and doors tightly closed for a long time, exhaust fumes can enter the enclosed cabin. Accumulating to a certain level can cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Idling with the air conditioning on emits more harmful exhaust than driving with the air conditioning on. The idle condition produces relatively more harmful gases such as carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, and nitrogen oxides.

The Difference Between Long Wheelbase and Short Wheelbase in Cars

In car configuration parameter tables, short wheelbase and long wheelbase refer to different interior space sizes. The differences between the two are as follows: 1. Compared to the standard short wheelbase version, the long wheelbase version increases the car's wheelbase, resulting in a longer body, larger interior space, more comfortable seating, and better driving stability. 2. The off-road capability of long wheelbase cars is worse than that of short wheelbase cars. Many long wheelbase cars now have longer wheelbases and larger underbody surfaces, making them more susceptible to damaging the chassis when facing rough or uneven road conditions, which are common on many roads. 3. Short wheelbase models generally have better handling than long wheelbase models because they are lighter in weight and have a smaller wheelbase.

How long can you listen to music while parked without damaging the battery?

Listening to music while parked for about half an hour to an hour won't damage the battery. Here are some tips for car battery maintenance: Check the battery every six months: To keep the battery in optimal condition, it's best to have it tested at a 4S shop every six months to check its charging capacity. Generally, a battery lasts about 3 years, but with good maintenance, it can last up to 4 years. As the battery ages, the intervals between checks should be shortened. Regularly clean the battery: Use a damp cloth to periodically wipe the exterior of the battery, removing dust, grease, white powder, and other contaminants that may cause leakage. Regular cleaning prevents excessive buildup of white acidic corrosion powder on the terminals and extends the battery's lifespan. You can also apply special grease to the battery terminals for added protection.

What are the causes of engine oil deterioration?

Engine oil deterioration can be caused by filter failure or engine water ingress, as detailed below: Filter Failure: During use, the air filter may wear out or become damaged, allowing external dust to easily enter the crankcase through the cylinder. This increases the viscosity of the engine oil, reducing its lubricating properties. In some cases, it may clog the oil filter, causing the engine to malfunction, leading to damage and shortening its service life. Engine Water Ingress: The most common cause of engine oil deterioration is water contamination, which can turn the oil into an emulsion and disrupt the oil film. When the water content exceeds 0.1%, the antioxidants and detergent dispersants added to the oil become ineffective. If the water content reaches 1% or more, the lubricating properties of the oil deteriorate, and its viscosity decreases. In severe cases, this can lead to mechanical failures such as engine seizure or bearing damage.
