What does washing new car wheels mean?

In terms of tread pattern and color, inferior refurbished tires have relatively shallow grooves, and refurbished tires often make the tire color particularly bright. Degree of wheel damage: Severe wear on the outer tread pattern, severe wear in the middle of the tire, severe wear on the inner side of the tire. The tread is the obvious place to start looking for tire damage. Check for abnormal circumferential wear and pattern defects.

Where is the thermostat located in the Wuling Hongguang?

The thermostat in the Wuling Hongguang is located in the water outlet pipe of the cylinder head. The working principle of the thermostat is that when the coolant temperature is below the specified value, the refined paraffin inside the thermostat's temperature-sensitive body remains in a solid state. The thermostat valve, under the action of the spring, closes the channel between the engine and the radiator, causing the coolant to return to the engine via the water pump, thereby initiating a small circulation within the engine. The Wuling Hongguang has dimensions of 4305mm in length, 1680mm in width, and 1750mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2720mm.
