Does Gasoline Evaporate in the Fuel Tank?

[JeffreyAnn]

Gasoline does evaporate in the fuel tank. The components of a fuel tank include: fuel cap, baffle, fuel gauge sensor, fuel supply and return lines, fuel filler neck, and vent. Refueling precautions: 1. Use automotive gasoline only. Improper fuel entering the fuel system may damage the fuel system and engine. 2. Do not use gasoline containing methanol or alcohol. 3. Avoid spilling fuel on painted surfaces to prevent paint damage. 4. If the fuel door is frozen and cannot be opened, gently push or tap the fuel door to remove ice before opening. 5. Prevent excessive fuel pressure that may cause spraying. 6. Insert the fuel nozzle deep into the tank to avoid overflow or spillage that could lead to fire or explosion. 7. Touch the vehicle body to discharge static electricity before opening the fuel filler flap or contacting the fuel nozzle. Do not re-enter the vehicle during refueling to prevent static electricity buildup.
