How Does a Car Indicate It's Out of Fuel?
1 Answers
When a car is out of fuel, the fuel gauge on the dashboard will display 'E' and flash, accompanied by an alarm sound. 'F' represents a full tank, while 'E' indicates no fuel. The fuel gauge is divided into four major sections, with the section closest to 'E' further divided into four smaller segments. When the pointer reaches the last small segment, most cars can still travel approximately 30 kilometers. Different car models have varying fuel tank sizes, with small sedans typically ranging from 50L to 55L, while SUVs and off-road vehicles have larger capacities. Here are some refueling tips: 1. Refuel when the tank is down to one-quarter full; don't wait until it's empty. 2. Avoid overfilling the tank; leave some space. 3. Do not mix different types of fuel; never add diesel or kerosene to gasoline. 4. Follow the fuel specifications indicated on the fuel tank cap. 5. Choose medium to large gas stations; using low-quality sulfur-containing gasoline can poison the oxygen sensor.
