How to Check Fuel Tank Capacity?
1 Answers
Introduction to methods for checking automobile fuel tank capacity: Generally, it is observed by reading the fuel gauge inside the vehicle. If there are no other issues, the fuel quantity will be accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge on the dashboard has 5-6 segments, with each segment representing the remaining fuel capacity in the tank. Typically, it is advisable to refuel when the fuel gauge shows two segments left to avoid running out of gasoline midway. Below is relevant information about automobile fuel tanks: 1. Fuel tank capacity measurement unit: The international standard uses L (liters) as the unit for measuring automobile fuel tank capacity. Different countries also have corresponding standards for fuel tank capacity. In China, the fuel tank capacity is regulated to be 95% of the rated value, but the actual capacity is usually larger than the nominal capacity based on practical conditions, so there is no need to worry about the fuel tank being smaller than actual. 2. Fuel tank capacity: Generally, small cars have a fuel tank capacity of 35-45 liters, while medium-sized cars have a fuel tank capacity of about 55-75 liters. A full tank usually allows for a driving range of about 500 kilometers. The size of the fuel tank varies with the vehicle's displacement; larger fuel consumption corresponds to a larger tank, and smaller consumption corresponds to a smaller tank.
