Is It Serious If a Motorcycle Fuel Tank Gets Hot?

[VonNoah]

Motorcycle fuel tank heating has no significant impact on the vehicle itself. If anything, it may slightly increase gasoline evaporation and accelerate paint surface aging. Functions of the fuel tank: In hydraulic systems, the fuel tank serves not only as an oil reservoir but also plays roles in heat dissipation, separating air bubbles from the oil, and settling impurities. Fuel tank maintenance: Maintenance primarily involves combining it with the vehicle's primary maintenance: draining accumulated water and sediment from the tank, checking for oil leaks at pipe joints and switches. For fuel tank caps equipped with air valves and steam valves, ensure their ventilation holes remain unobstructed. The filler neck's filter screen should be kept intact to prevent impurities from entering the tank during refueling and clogging the fuel lines.
