After refueling, a strong gasoline smell in the car may be due to gasoline fumes entering the vehicle during the refueling process. You can try driving with the windows open to dissipate the smell. If the gasoline smell persists, it could indicate issues such as aging of the fuel tank sealing ring, leaks in the gasoline pipeline, or a damaged charcoal canister. It is recommended that the owner visit a repair shop as soon as possible for inspection to prevent potential hazards. Here is some information about gasoline: At room temperature, gasoline is a mobile liquid ranging from colorless to light yellow, difficult to dissolve in water, and highly flammable. Its distillation range is between 30°C and 205°C. When the concentration in the air reaches 74–123 grams per cubic meter, it can explode upon encountering a flame.

What is the principle of a CVT transmission?

The principle of a CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) is that it uses a drive belt and a variable-width pulley system for power transmission. When the pulley changes its groove width, it alters the contact radius of the drive belt between the driving and driven pulleys, thereby achieving variable speed. The drive belt is typically made of materials like rubber belts, metal belts, or metal chains. Below is some information about CVT transmissions: CVT usually refers to a type of automotive transmission, also known as a continuously variable transmission. The difference between a CVT and a stepped transmission is that its gear ratio is not a series of discrete points but a continuous range of values, which results in better fuel efficiency, power performance, and driving smoothness, while also reducing emissions and costs. For example, the gear ratio can vary continuously from 3.455 to 0.85. The structure of a CVT is simpler and more compact compared to traditional transmissions. It does not have the numerous gear pairs found in manual transmissions or the complex planetary gear sets in automatic transmissions. Instead, it primarily relies on the driving and driven pulleys and a metal belt to achieve continuously variable gear ratios.

Where to Check the ET Value of the Wheel Hub?

The ET value of the wheel hub can be found on the back of the hub, either engraved or on the cardboard box, with detailed parameters listed on the label. The ET value, also known as the ET offset value, refers to the offset, which is the deviation between the mounting surface of the wheel hub and the centerline of the wheel rim, measured in millimeters. There are three types: positive, zero, and negative. Offset is defined as the distance between the mounting surface of the wheel rim and the center of the wheel rim. A positive value indicates an outward direction, while a negative value indicates an inward direction. The wheel hub is the rotating part of the wheel steel inside the tire, connected by columns to the wheel core, which is the metal component supporting the tire and mounted on the axle. It is also called the wheel rim, steel rim, or tire ring. Wheel hubs come in various types based on diameter, width, manufacturing method, and material.

How many points will be deducted for motorcycle exhaust modification if caught?

Modifying the exhaust system of a motorcycle and getting caught will result in a certain amount of fine. Below is some information regarding the handling of such violations: Time frame: The owner must go to the local traffic police station to handle the violation within 15 days of receiving the penalty message. If not handled within 15 days, a late fee of 3% per day will be charged, but the late fee will not exceed double the original fine amount. It is advisable to handle it early to avoid unnecessary penalties. Confirmation method: The fastest and most effective way to know if you have violated the rules is to inquire at the vehicle management office or traffic police station. You need to bring important documents such as your driver's license, vehicle license, and ID card. All three are indispensable. Of course, it is best to prepare some cash so that even if a violation record is found, you can immediately proceed with the relevant procedures.

What is the ground clearance of the 8th generation Camry?

The minimum ground clearance of the 8th generation Camry is 130mm. Minimum ground clearance refers to the distance between the lowest point of the vehicle (excluding the wheels) and the supporting surface when the vehicle is fully loaded and stationary. It is used to characterize the vehicle's ability to pass over obstacles such as stones and tree stumps without collision. The following are the advantages and disadvantages of ground clearance size: 1. The smaller the ground clearance, the worse the ability to pass over obstacles. Sedans generally travel on flat urban roads, so they have smaller ground clearance. Off-road vehicles have larger minimum ground clearance to pass over larger obstacles. 2. The larger the minimum ground clearance, the stronger the vehicle's ability to pass over obstacles or uneven ground, but the higher center of gravity reduces stability; the smaller the minimum ground clearance, the weaker the vehicle's ability to pass over obstacles or uneven ground, but the lower center of gravity increases stability.

How many simulated gears does the Geely Vision X3 CVT transmission have?

Geely Vision X3 CVT transmission simulates 8 gears. What is a transmission: A transmission is a mechanism used to change the speed and torque from the engine. It can fix or change the transmission ratio between the output shaft and the input shaft in steps, also known as a gearbox. The transmission consists of a gear transmission mechanism and a control mechanism, and some vehicles also have a power output mechanism. Most transmission mechanisms use ordinary gear transmission, while some use planetary gear transmission. Ordinary gear transmission mechanisms generally use sliding gears and synchronizers. The functions of a transmission: Change the transmission ratio to meet the traction needs under different driving conditions, allowing the engine to operate as efficiently as possible and meet speed requirements. Enable reverse driving to meet the needs of vehicle backward movement. Interrupt power transmission when the engine starts, idles, shifts gears, or needs to stop, cutting off power to the drive wheels. Enable neutral gear, where the transmission stops outputting power when the clutch is engaged.
