How many liters of fuel does a Mazda Atenza tank hold?
1 Answers
Mazda Atenza has a fuel tank capacity of 58 liters. Here are some fuel refill tips: Requirements after refueling: The fuel filler neck screen should remain intact to prevent impurities from entering the fuel tank during refueling and clogging the fuel lines. The sealing gasket of the fuel filler cap should also be in good condition to avoid fuel spillage while driving. Hazards of overfilling: Fuel leakage can easily cause fires, especially in hot summer weather. Due to thermal expansion, overfilling may cause fuel to overflow through the vent hole. Aside from being wasteful, spilled gasoline coming into contact with open flames can easily lead to fires or even explosions. Blocking the vent hole can create negative pressure inside the fuel tank, leading to poor fuel supply or even fuel starvation. Symptoms like the engine failing to start after refueling or jerking at high speeds might be caused by an overfilled fuel tank. Damage to the carbon canister: The carbon canister is usually installed between the fuel tank and the engine. Since gasoline is a volatile liquid, the fuel tank often contains vapor at normal temperatures. The fuel evaporation emission control system directs these vapors to be burned and prevents them from escaping into the atmosphere. The activated carbon canister plays a crucial role in this process. Overfilling can cause liquid gasoline, rather than vapor, to enter the carbon canister, potentially damaging it. Gasoline vapor is carcinogenic: The activated carbon canister is usually located near the fresh air intake. When the tank is overfilled, the carbon canister becomes saturated, and excessive pressure may release fumes containing gasoline into the cabin, resulting in an unpleasant gasoline odor. These fumes contain benzene and other carcinogenic substances, which can harm passengers' health over time.
