Can the fuel be siphoned from a Corolla's fuel tank?
1 Answers
Corolla's fuel tank allows fuel siphoning. Operation procedure: Insert a tube into the fuel at the filter inlet. By utilizing the siphon principle, liquid can be drawn without a pump. When liquid in a higher position fills an inverted U-shaped tube structure with its opening at a lower position, the pressure difference between both ends of the tube can propel the liquid over the highest point and discharge it from the other end. Fuel refueling precautions: Avoid overfilling the fuel tank during regular refueling. Excessive fuel may expand and damage the tank, and contact with open flames could cause instant combustion. Overfilling also increases the vehicle's overall weight and fuel consumption.
