Routine inspection of engine oil, coolant, booster oil and glass water, focusing on checking whether the tire pressure and tire wear of tires and spare tires are normal and whether there are nails on tires. See if the jack and tire changing tool are in the car. It might be useful to bring a tire pump. It is recommended to prepare two spare tires for long-distance driving.
This engine needs professional inspection. If possible, go to the 4S shop and check the engine, brakes, ABS and circuits with the computer. In addition, it depends on whether the voltage is normal, whether the electrolyte level is normal, whether the battery is damaged, and whether the power is sufficient. In addition, lighting, braking and other systems should also be tested in detail.
2. Pay attention to driving safety.
When going out to go on road trip, the most important thing is safety. If you want to know the road information in time, drive carefully after drinking, pay attention to control the speed and keep the distance between cars when driving. In case of strong wind, rain, snow and fog, you should slow down and walk slowly. The visibility of driving at night is low, and the driving distance should be left.
Keep straight and reduce lane changes. The motorcade should try to drive in the main lane, always pay attention to the sign lines on the roadside and road surface, and can't ride or press the lane dividing line or occupy the overtaking lane for a long time.
When driving long distances by car, you must be alert to fatigue driving. According to statistics, fatigue driving has become the first killer on the road, causing hundreds of thousands of deaths and injuries every year in China alone!
Three. A detailed list of all the equipment during the road trip.
1. Text certificate:
ID card, driver's license, vehicle driving license, vehicle insurance policy (pay attention to the insurance area), payment voucher of road maintenance fee and purchase tax/vehicle use tax, and various personal insurance policies/cards (accident insurance, medical insurance, etc.). ), wallet (credit card/UnionPay card and a small amount of cash).
Important documents should be carried with you and kept personally. In addition, vehicle insurance in many provinces and cities only covers the scope of the province, so you must ask clearly before you travel, and if necessary, you can insure additional risks outside the province, which is very cheap.
2. Small medicine cabinet+first aid kit:
Xingyuan herbs, quick-acting jiuxin pills (nitroglycerin), Angong Niuhuang pills, Yunnan Baiyao, safflower oil, anti-inflammatory drugs, Xieliting, cold antipyretic drugs, painkillers, disinfectants, hemostatic bandages, thermometers, mosquito repellents, band-AIDS, eye drops, etc.
Long-distance driving in go on road trip is often far away from the hospital, and life-threatening emergencies cannot be handled in time. There is only one life, and there is no regret medicine when something happens. Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases have long been younger, and fatigue driving can not be avoided with a good rest. In addition, if relatives and friends get carsick or get altitude sickness, it will be more fun to travel in the same car. So, bring the "legendary" herbs (the only perfume that can prevent fatigue driving and make people awake instantly; In addition, it has a miraculous effect on carsickness. People with any degree of motion sickness get better instantly, which is contrary to the effect of motion sickness drugs (making people sleepy, uncomfortable and enjoying the beautiful scenery along the way), quick-acting jiuxin pills and Angong Niuhuang pills (sudden heart attack or cerebral hemorrhage will make you get to the hospital in time, otherwise getting sick in the wild is no different from waiting for death; Just like nitroglycerin without quick-acting pills, you can't buy real Angong Niuhuang and Tongrentang. You are responsible for your life and your family!
3. Vehicle tools and spare parts:
Full set of vehicle-mounted tools, automobile first aid kit, starting power supply, fire extinguisher, spare tires, spare oil drums, a tire-patching cone and several tire-patching strips, buckets, sappers' shovels, snow chains, air pumps, anti-theft bar locks, etc. The first aid kit in the car is equipped with a trailer belt, a charging cable, a reflective safety vest, a safety warning triangle, gloves, fuses, flashlights, etc.
Trailer belts, battery charging lines and spare oil drums are things that many people will ignore, and they will not understand how valuable these things are until the vehicle breaks down! In addition, you can consider bringing an anti-theft bar lock, which can not only prevent theft, but also protect yourself. In an emergency, you can also pry open the car door and smash the window to save people. I once saw a car spontaneously ignite and the driver was trapped in the cab. Without the right tools, the driver can't open the door in time and watch the driver burn to death!
4. Electronic communication equipment:
GPS(+ compass+latest road map), walkie-talkie, notebook computer, car charging power supply.
If you don't want to go directly to the public toilet with GPS, you'd better bring the latest road map and compass. Three add up to a road idiot and won't get lost. Intercom plays an irreplaceable role in group travel and is necessary. In addition, bring a laptop with a wireless network card (2/3G is ok), and you can find the information you need online in case of any difficulties and emergencies, which is very practical!
Equipped with 220V car charging power supply, it brings you unexpected convenience, and all electronic equipment you carry can be charged while driving.
5. Self-defense tools:
All kinds of self-defense tools that you think can effectively protect you without breaking the law.
Needless to say, if you are naive enough to think that all parts of the country are safe now, you don't need to bring it. Except Chongqing, of course, where bad guys are arrested, even bad lawyers who blink their eyes are arrested, so it is very safe.
6. Daily necessities:
Timely clothing, socks (multiple pairs), sewing kit, condom, sun hat, anti-glare sunglasses, gloves, soft-soled shoes suitable for driving, rain gear, toiletries, toilet paper, garbage bags, food, purified water, etc.
Don't be afraid of trouble, it may come in handy. Remind me to bring more environmentally friendly garbage bags. Don't throw them out of the window when you eat in the car. How despicable! And the better the car you drive, the meaner it looks! Never!
In addition, pure water is the best drink, which can be used not only by yourself, but also by vehicles under special circumstances.
7. Outdoor products:
Sleeping bags, outdoor shoes, high boots, moisture-proof mats, folding tables and chairs, disposable tablecloths, floor mats, tents, gas stoves, canned gas, pots, tableware, lighters, barbecue ovens, umbrellas, kettles, powerful flashlights and spare batteries, light bulbs, etc.
The choice of outdoor products is very personalized, and some products listed here are for reference only.
8. Other considerations:
-Please check the power cord/charger of all electronic equipment (mobile phone, camera, video camera, walkie-talkie, etc.). ) before going out.
-Before going out, please check whether the necessary important telephone numbers are stored in the mobile phone, including relatives, friends, companies, auto insurance companies, personal/medical insurance companies, rescue companies, etc.
-Don't listen to music with headphones while driving, it's too dangerous! Play it on the car stereo.
-It's illegal to talk on your cell phone while driving! If you have to make a phone call, please use headphones.
-finally, remind everyone again, don't drive tired, a second's trance on the highway may kill you! There are too many casualties every year! Be alert!
Four. Emergency maintenance method in case of failure
The following is the situation that there is no spare parts to supply when there is a fault during driving, and some emergency repair methods can be taken.
1. When the inlet and outlet pipes are not broken, you can wrap the leaking place with a soap-coated cloth; If the rupture is serious, cut off the hose rupture, put a bamboo tube or iron tube in the middle and tie it tightly with iron wire.
2. If the fan belt is broken, you can tie the broken belt with iron wire or drive the car away by starting and stopping.
3. Screw hole sliding buckle Screw hole sliding buckle will lead to oil leakage or loose connecting rod, making it unable to work. At this time, the original screw can be knocked flat with a hammer to make both sides expand and then tighten, but it cannot be disassembled many times and will be repaired in the next maintenance.
The fuel tank is damaged. When the motor vehicle is in use, it is found that the fuel tank leaks oil. The spilled oil can be wiped clean and temporarily blocked with soap or bubble gum; It is better to repair with epoxy resin glue.
5. When the tubing breaks, clean the broken part, coat it with soap, wrap it with cloth or tape, tie it tightly with iron wire, and then coat it with a layer of soap.
6. If the tubing is broken, you can find a rubber or plastic sleeve suitable for the tubing diameter. If the socket joint is not tight enough, both ends should be tied tightly with iron wire to prevent oil leakage.
7. According to the size of the sand hole, choose the corresponding specifications of the electric fuse, and gently smash it into the sand hole with a hammer to eliminate the oil leakage and water leakage of the sand hole in the cylinder head.
8. Oil leakage from the tubing joint When motor vehicles are used, such as oil leakage from the engine tubing joint, it is mostly caused by the seal between the tubing horn and the tubing nut. Cotton yarn can be wound around the lower edge of the horn, and then the tubing nut and tubing joint can be tightened; You can also chew bubble gum or maltose into a paste, dry it and apply it on the nut seat of the tubing to seal it.
9. The diaphragm or oil pump diaphragm is cracked or broken. The detachable oil pump can take out the diaphragm, file it with bakelite, electric insulating bakelite or plastic cloth according to the original shape and size, and polish it smoothly.
10. The valve spring is broken. After the valve spring is broken, the broken spring can be removed and the two broken springs can be installed and used in reverse. You can also find a piece of iron sheet with a thickness of 1mm, cut it into a disc with a diameter larger than that of the spring 1mm, cut a round hole in it with a diameter smaller than that of the spring by 4mm, and cut the outer edge into cracks with a length of 4mm every 6 mm.. After cutting, every other piece is folded in half to form a double-sided spring seat groove, and then the spring is turned over and put into the iron plate groove for later use.
