Does gasoline evaporate quickly in summer?
1 Answers
Cars exposed to the sun in summer have an extremely low possibility of gasoline evaporation, as the fuel tank cap is sealed with a rubber gasket, and the fuel pipe is connected to the engine, which is also sealed. More details are as follows: 1. Gasoline in a sun-exposed car: Gasoline in a sun-exposed car will not evaporate from the fuel tank, but it may deteriorate, potentially producing excessive gum and carbon deposits in the intake system, which can affect the normal operation of the engine; 2. Introduction to gasoline: Gasoline is an industrial oil product that is very volatile. Gasoline added to a car's fuel tank is generally well sealed and not prone to evaporation. If the fuel tank's sealing is poor, it may evaporate to some extent; 3. Summer precautions: Summer temperatures are relatively high, so it is recommended not to park the car in direct sunlight, as this can damage the gasoline pipelines.
