Why does the car not respond when trying to start?

Reasons why the car does not respond when trying to start are as follows: 1. The car has been parked for a long time. The usage time of the car battery is the main cause of power loss. Typically, the lifespan of a car battery is two to three years. If it exceeds this period, the car is highly likely to experience power loss after being parked for just two to three days, resulting in weak starting. 2. Forgetting to turn off the lights and onboard electronics. If interior lights are left on when parking and turning off the engine, the battery may be drained overnight, leading to insufficient power and weak starting. 3. Forgetting to turn off the air conditioning before shutting down the engine. Not turning off the air conditioning before shutting down the engine causes the air conditioning system to automatically start working when the ignition switch is turned on. This directly results in an instant high power load on the vehicle, which over time can cause damage to the battery. 4. Insufficient fuel pressure. 5. Poor performance of the fuel pump, spark plugs, or distributor.

What tires are equipped on the 2018 Sagitar?

The 2018 Sagitar comes with 205/55-R16 tires, and the spare tire size is 195/65-R15. Tires are circular elastic rubber products assembled on various vehicles or machinery to roll on the ground. Usually mounted on metal rims, they support the vehicle body, cushion external impacts, achieve contact with the road surface, and ensure the vehicle's driving performance. Here is an introduction to tires: 1. They support the entire weight of the vehicle, bear the car's load, and transmit forces and moments in other directions. 2. They transmit traction and braking torque, ensuring good adhesion between the wheels and the road surface to improve the vehicle's power, braking, and passability; together with the car suspension, they mitigate the impact during driving and dampen the resulting vibrations. 3. They prevent severe vibrations and early damage to vehicle components, adapt to the vehicle's high-speed performance, reduce driving noise, and ensure driving safety, handling stability, comfort, and energy efficiency.

What documents must be carried when driving a motor vehicle on the road?

Documents required for driving on the road: The driver must carry the vehicle license and driver's license, and the compulsory traffic insurance label, vehicle inspection qualification label, and environmental protection label must be affixed to the upper right side of the front windshield. When driving on the road, not only must all relevant documents be carried, but traffic rules must also be followed, and parking must not be done haphazardly. Parking is prohibited in sections with no-parking signs or in areas with isolation measures. Parking is also prohibited on sidewalks, construction sections, bus stops, fire stations, and other intersections. On highways, parking is not allowed in unauthorized areas, or at intersections, tunnels, steep slopes, bridges, and sections within 50 meters of these areas. At intersections, running red lights is prohibited. Vehicles should slow down in advance at traffic intersections and must stop outside the stop line when encountering a stop signal; if there is no stop line, stop outside the pedestrian crossing line. When turning right without traffic lights, pedestrians must be given the right of way.

Reasons for Insufficient Pressure in a Three-Cylinder Plunger Pump

Insufficient pressure in a three-cylinder plunger pump may be caused by aging of the wash pump. Below are the relevant details: Concept: A three-cylinder plunger pump is a type of equipment primarily used for intermittent operations such as acidification, cementing, fracturing, and well sealing. Features: The pump's reducer can be installed in 17 different positions, allowing it to adapt to various drive configurations of the pump unit; two different pump head bodies are available to accommodate plungers of different sizes (due to varying pressure and displacement requirements); optional packing components, valve assemblies, discharge flanges, and suction manifolds can be selected to meet the requirements of different layouts, media, and environments; the pump has a lightweight and simple structure, with reduced weight, maximum displacement, and highest pressure.

Why Doesn't Water Come Out of a Car's Exhaust Pipe?

It is quite normal for an exhaust pipe to either drip water or not drip water. Below are the reasons why a car's exhaust pipe drips water: 1. Complete combustion of gasoline: The exhaust pipe drips water because the gasoline in the engine burns completely, producing water vapor during combustion. This vapor condenses into water droplets at the exhaust pipe outlet, accumulating together, which is why you see the exhaust pipe dripping water. The white smoke seen coming from the exhaust pipe in winter is also water vapor. 2. Evaporation due to temperature increase: When the exhaust pipe heats up as the car operates, the existing liquid water is heated and evaporates, resulting in white mist. 3. Byproduct of gasoline combustion: The engine's power comes from the combustion of gasoline, which pushes the piston to work along the cylinder wall. Gasoline is an organic compound primarily composed of carbon (C) and hydrogen (H) elements. When gasoline burns, besides producing carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, and carbon mixtures, it also produces water.

What are the new regulations for motor vehicle annual inspection in 2021?

New regulations mainly adjust the annual inspection items and came into effect on January 1, 2021. 1. Added inspection step: Private cars now include a "safety defect recall" check in the online inspection items. If a vehicle has safety issues and is under manufacturer recall, staff will notify the owner about the recall status. 2. Clarified visual inspection scope: The new regulations specify and relax visual inspection standards, allowing modifications to grilles, pedals, roof racks, bumpers, and wheel hubs during visual checks. 3. Three additions and six reductions for freight vehicles: Six original inspection items have been removed and three new items added. (1) New items: Tire tread depth, wheel lifting device, and wheelbase inspection. (2) Removed items: Noise, speedometer, suspension efficiency, fuel economy, power performance, and headlight offset (6 old items).

What does the motor vehicle inspection include?

Motor vehicle annual inspection items mainly include the following: 1. Check whether the vehicle body appearance, engine, and chassis are aesthetically pleasing and consistent with the original factory specifications. 2. Verify if the vehicle's braking performance, steering control performance, and lighting meet regulatory standards. 3. Inspect whether the vehicle has undergone illegal modifications. 4. Check if the motor vehicle license plate is damaged. The inspection of the vehicle body appearance and engine chassis primarily aims to ensure the exterior is clean and all required information is clearly visible, with the paint surface being uniform and attractive. The braking performance, steering control performance, lighting, and exhaust system must comply with the specific technical requirements for safe motor vehicle operation; failure to meet these standards will result in inspection failure. The check for illegal modifications is mainly to prevent owners from altering the vehicle's appearance, color, or engine condition without authorization, as such modifications can easily lead to electrical system short circuits and safety hazards. The inspection of the license plate, vehicle registration certificate, and printed numbers focuses on identifying any damage to enlarged characters or illegible markings.
