Do Cars Have a Reserve Fuel Tank?
1 Answers
Vehicles do have a reserve fuel tank. It is located next to the main fuel tank and is connected to an additional diesel sub-tank. If the owner wants to check the remaining fuel level, they can observe the fuel gauge on the right side of the dashboard, which is marked with E and F. When the needle is close to E, it indicates that the fuel is running low, and when it is near F, it means the fuel level is sufficient. Methods to open the fuel tank: Mechanical key opening: This is usually found on some rugged off-road vehicles. Nowadays, most family cars do not use a mechanical key to open the fuel tank because it is relatively complicated to operate. In-car switch method: The location of the in-car fuel tank switch varies depending on the vehicle model. It may be on the floor to the left of the driver's seat, on the left front door panel, or on the center console, all marked with a fuel pump symbol. However, it is important to note that the in-car switch can easily lead to the owner forgetting to turn off the engine before refueling, so the owner should always remember to turn off the engine before refueling. Press-type opening method: The press-type fuel tank door is currently the most convenient method. The owner only needs to park the car, and the fuel attendant can press to open the tank for refueling. However, when the car is not parked for refueling, the owner must remember to lock the central control, otherwise, the fuel tank cap can be opened.
