How is the quality of Sinochem's oil?

Sinochem Petroleum is a state-owned enterprise, and the quality of its oil products is guaranteed. Sinochem Petroleum can be considered the 'fourth barrel of oil' after PetroChina, Sinopec, and CNOOC, with a 60-year history in the petroleum business. Although it is not as widespread domestically, it enjoys a good reputation and has a positive influence in both domestic and international petroleum markets. The reason Sinochem's oil is cheaper is mainly because it entered the gasoline market relatively late, and its brand recognition was previously low, necessitating compressed profits to open up the market. Additionally, Sinochem Petroleum has limited distribution within China, not being available everywhere, which is also one of the reasons for its relatively lower prices.

What are the issues with a car converted back to gasoline after using natural gas?

The ignition system suffers the most damage, with the spark plugs being the most affected. Here are the detailed issues: 1. Reduced power and weakened ignition capability: Since spark plugs are used for ignition, their degradation can lead to decreased power. The timing of ignition is precise, and missing the optimal ignition time will result in reduced power. 2. Incomplete combustion and increased fuel consumption: This affects the car's fuel efficiency. Insufficient ignition energy and incorrect ignition timing lead to incomplete combustion, which inevitably consumes more gasoline. 3. Carbon buildup and engine damage: Due to inadequate ignition performance, incomplete combustion occurs, leading to significant carbon deposits on the piston top and spark plug electrodes.

What type of fuel should be used for the Mercedes-Benz C260?

While refueling, ensure that all electronic devices and power sources are turned off to guarantee safety. Do not smoke, make phone calls, carry, or produce open flames when adding fuel to prevent igniting the fuel. Warning: If the fuel gauge shows less than 1/4 of the tank remaining, the owner should refuel.
