How far can you drive after the fuel light comes on?
1 Answers
Different vehicle models can travel varying distances, generally ranging between 30km-135km. The hazards of continuing to drive with the fuel light on are as follows: 1. When the vehicle is in a state of low fuel, significant lateral tilting can affect the fuel pump's operation. Fuel not only powers the vehicle but also serves a cooling function. If the fuel pump operates without adequate cooling, there is a risk of overheating and damage. 2. Whether you use expensive 97-octane fuel or cheaper diesel, there are always some impurities settled at the bottom of the fuel tank over time. When the vehicle is nearly out of fuel, the fuel pump will suck harder, drawing some of these impurities into the engine, which can severely affect internal engine components.
