If gasoline is spilled in the car trunk, you can first remove the trunk mat and perform a surface foam cleaning. Apply dishwashing liquid or laundry detergent, then scrub with a brush to clean it thoroughly. The specific methods to eliminate the gasoline smell are as follows: 1. Charcoal Deodorizing Method: Wrap purchased black charcoal in clean, breathable gauze and place it in the car trunk. The charcoal can absorb odors inside the car. 2. Fruit Deodorizing Method: Place lemon or pineapple in the trunk. Cut them open to allow their fruity fragrance to evaporate effectively, masking the odor inside the car. 3. Vinegar Deodorizing Method: When the car is not in use, prepare a small bucket of water with some vinegar added, and place it in the car. The water can absorb formaldehyde, while the vinegar helps stabilize the formaldehyde.

Is it necessary to add fuel additive for a new car?

It is not necessary to add fuel additive for a new car, because the effect of fuel additive is relatively limited, and the fuel at domestic gas stations already contains fuel additive components. Additionally, since a new car's engine has a short service life and operates in good condition, it will not produce carbon deposits. Therefore, car owners do not need to add fuel additive to a new car. Fuel additive, also known as fuel system cleaner, is directly poured into the vehicle's fuel tank and mixed with gasoline when used. The main function of fuel additive is to clean carbon deposits, while also assisting in engine maintenance and cleaning the fuel system. Some special-purpose fuel additives can also improve the anti-knock performance of the fuel.
