1 Answers
Open the driver's door, engage the Porsche Cayenne's handbrake to prevent the vehicle from rolling, pull the fuel tank cap switch located on the left side of the driver's leg area, lift the Porsche Cayenne's fuel tank cap outward, and unscrew the plastic cap of the fuel tank. Precautions for cleaning the fuel tank are as follows: 1. Note 1: After using the car for a period of time, perform a thorough cleaning and inspection of the fuel tank. When cleaning the fuel tank, rinse the interior with hot water, then dry it with compressed air to remove gasoline vapors inside the fuel tank. 2. Note 2: Then immerse the fuel tank in a 10% sodium hydroxide aqueous solution for cleaning. After soaking, rinse the interior and exterior of the fuel tank with running water. Alternatively, you can clean it with a 5% boiling caustic soda solution, followed by rinsing with hot water. 3. Note 3: If there is rust on the exterior of the fuel tank, clean it with a steel wire brush and then apply paint. After cleaning the fuel tank, perform a leak test by sealing all openings with rubber plugs and submerging the tank in water. Introduce compressed air through the fuel pipe connector hole. If bubbles emerge from any part, it indicates a leak. Mark the leak, remove the paint, and weld the area.
