Five major maintenance measures for Isuzu compressed garbage trucks

The service life of a compressed garbage truck depends on the driver's operation and daily maintenance. Regular driving will not reduce the service life of the car. As the maintainer of public facilities, the driver should maintain the health of the car. "A car is maintained, not repaired." The service life of a car is directly proportional to its maintenance.
1. Difficult to start. Reaction phenomenon: multiple ignitions, the engine will not start.
Cause analysis: The engine is started by relying on the battery's current to push the spark plug to ignite. Therefore, a failure in the starting system is likely to be caused by battery rust or battery fluid leakage.
Maintenance: Check whether the positive and negative terminal contacts of the battery are rusty or dirty. If so, go to the repair station to clean them in time to keep the circuit open. After the battery is repaired, the battery's retirement time can be delayed, and the environmental pollution caused by resource deployment and discarded batteries can be reduced.
2. Decreased power function. Reaction phenomena: engine power performance decreases, fuel consumption increases, and nozzles become clogged.
Cause analysis: This is most likely caused by insufficient oil combustion and increased carbon deposits in the engine due to the engine oil, oil filter, air filter and gasoline (diesel) oil filter not being changed for a long time.
Maintenance: It is recommended that the engine oil and oil filter should be replaced every time the maintenance kilometers are driven, and the air filter and gasoline/diesel filter need to be replaced every 10,000 kilometers, otherwise the air, fuel and oil Impurities in the oil will cause parts to wear and clog the oil circuit, thus affecting the normal operation of the engine.
3. Increased exhaust pipe noise. Reaction phenomenon: The noise of the engine exhaust increases, and the exhaust gas emissions also exceed the standard.
Cause analysis: The engine exhaust gas undergoes oxidation due to high temperature, which is likely to cause leakage in the exhaust system.
Maintenance: Check whether the pipes and interfaces of the exhaust system (especially the muffler, etc.) are corroded by exhaust gas, and whether the interface pads are washed away. If leakage is found in the exhaust system, the leaking parts should be repaired or replaced in time. Each inspection can not only ensure the normal operation of the exhaust system, but more importantly, reduce the environmental pollution caused by harmful substances in the exhaust gas.
4. Increased fuel consumption. Response Phenomenon: Car fuel consumption continues to increase
Cause analysis: Insufficient tire pressure will not only increase driving resistance and fuel consumption, but also affect the service life of the tires.
Maintenance: Prepare your own tire pressure measuring device and check the tire pressure frequently. Remember not to forget to check the spare tire, so as not to find out that the spare tire is out of air when you need to replace the tire urgently. When the temperature is high, the tire pressure will be higher than usual, so the tire pressure is more accurate in cold weather or in a cool place. Normally, the tires should swap positions every 10,000 kilometers to avoid too much difference in wear between the front and rear. If you need to replace severely worn tires, it is best to replace two or four tires at the same time. Tires with the same pattern can be replaced front to back.
5. Coolant dripping. Reaction phenomenon: A puddle of inexplicable liquid leaked from under the car, and the coolant level dropped.
Cause analysis: Usually, the cause of dripping is cracks in the rubber tube connecting the coolant tank and the engine.
Maintenance: The deterioration of the anti-rust quality of the coolant will not only easily lead to damage to the radiator, pipelines, hoses and other components, but also because the main component of the coolant is ethylene glycol, dripping onto the ground will also cause environmental and air pollution. . However, it is difficult to judge whether the coolant has deteriorated through visual inspection, so the coolant should be replaced regularly and do not wait until a fault occurs before repairing it. It is generally recommended that the vehicle's coolant be replaced every 40,000 kilometers or two years, and the cooling fan belt must be replaced every two years.
