Nine secrets of auto parts 'longevity'

One of the secrets of longevity: avoiding heat

　　 The temperature of the engine piston is too high, which can easily lead to overheating and melting and holding of the cylinder; overheating of rubber seals, triangular tapes, tires, etc., are prone to premature aging, performance degradation, and shortening of service life; starters, generators, and regulators When the coils of electrical equipment are overheated, they are easily burned and scrapped.

　　Longevity Secret Two: Avoiding Counterattack

　　 The engine cylinder head gasket should not be installed reversely, otherwise it will cause premature ablation and damage to the cylinder head gasket; the engine fan blades cannot be reversed during installation; for directional pattern tires, chevron tires, and the ground after installation The impression should point the tip of the herringbone towards the back.

　　Longevity Secret Three: Avoid Dirty

　　 Fuel filter, oil filter, air filter, hydraulic oil filter and all kinds of filters and other parts if they are too dirty, will result in poor filtering effect. Dirty parts such as water tank heat sink, air-cooled engine block and cylinder head heat sink, and cooler heat sink will cause poor heat dissipation and high temperature.

　　Longevity Secret Four: Avoiding Deficiencies

　　 Engine valve locks should be installed in pairs, if missing or missing, it will cause the valve to lose control and damage the piston, etc.; engine connecting rod bolts, flywheel bolts, cotter pins, locking screws, etc. installed on the drive shaft bolts, If the anti-loose device such as the fuse or spring washer is missing, it may cause serious failure during use; if the oil nozzle used to lubricate the gear in the engine timing gear chamber is missing, it will cause serious oil leakage there. .

　　Longevity Tip #5: Avoid washing

　　 The paper air filter element of the engine cannot be cleaned with any oil; for leather parts, it is also not suitable to be cleaned with oil.

　　Longevity Secret No. 6: Avoiding Oil

　　 The paper filter element of the engine dry air filter, if it is stained with oil, will easily draw the mixed gas with a higher concentration into the cylinder, resulting in insufficient air volume, increased fuel consumption, and reduced engine power; if the triangle tape is stained Oil will accelerate its corrosion and aging; brake shoes, friction linings of dry clutches, brake bands, etc. are stained with oil, which will threaten driving safety. Tire rubber is very sensitive to oil corrosion, and contact with oil will soften or peel the rubber.

　　Longevity Secret Seven: Avoiding Stress

　　 If the tire casing is stored for a long time and is not turned over in time, it will deform due to squeezing; the paper filter element of the air filter and fuel filter, if squeezed, cannot reliably filter Clear effect; rubber oil seal, triangle tape, oil pipe, etc. can not be squeezed.

The Eighth Secret of Longevity: Avoid Repetition

　　Some parts are supposed to be used once, but individual drivers or repairers reuse them for saving or because they don’t understand the taboos, which can easily lead to accidents.

　　Longevity Formula: Avoiding Near Fire

　　 Rubber products such as tires, triangle tape, cylinder liner water blocking ring, rubber oil seal, etc., if they are close to the fire source, they will easily deteriorate or be damaged. On the other hand, they may cause fire accidents.
