How many kilometers can you drive when the fuel gauge turns red?
1 Answers
The fuel gauge turning red indicates you can drive approximately 50 kilometers. When the fuel warning light illuminates, it means the fuel level has dropped below the fuel pump. The exposed fuel pump begins to overheat due to lack of fuel cooling. Continuing to drive at this point will further expose the fuel pump and worsen the overheating situation. It is inadvisable to keep driving with the warning light on. The yellow fuel light is merely a warning, as product designers created this reminder considering some drivers may not monitor the fuel gauge. Reasons for the oil pressure light to illuminate include: 1. Insufficient engine oil; 2. Overheating engine; 3. Faulty oil pump components, excessive wear, or improper assembly causing oil delivery failure or insufficient oil supply.
