How to Solve Water in Car Fuel Tank?
1 Answers
Water in the car fuel tank can be divided into three situations: 1. If there is a small amount of water in the fuel tank and the engine can start and run normally, the owner can add some fuel additives such as fuel tank water remover or fuel system cleaner to help the engine burn better. 2. If there is too much water, the sedimentation method can be used first. Let some water settle out, drain some fuel the next day, then remove and clean the spark plugs. Open the engine hood and expose the spark plugs and engine to sunlight for a while. 3. If the owner finds a significant amount of water in the fuel tank, it is recommended to tow the car to a professional maintenance shop to clean the fuel tank, fuel lines, and injectors, and then replace the fuel filter. In fact, water in the fuel tank is not scary as long as it is dealt with promptly. Never add a large amount of water to act as fuel during travel, and make sure the fuel tank cap is tightened properly on rainy days.
