Should the Sylphy use 92 or 95 gasoline?
1 Answers
The Sylphy is specified to use gasoline with an octane rating of 92 or higher. In terms of power, this car is equipped with a 1.6L naturally aspirated engine, which has relatively lower power compared to turbocharged engines, making 92-octane gasoline sufficient. Precautions for using the fuel tank are as follows: Do not wait for the low fuel warning light to come on before refueling: Before driving, check the fuel gauge and calculate whether refueling is needed during the trip based on the distance and the fuel gauge reading. It is advisable to refuel in advance rather than waiting for the fuel warning light to come on. The fuel pump is located inside the fuel tank and operates at high temperatures during continuous use. Being immersed in fuel helps to cool it effectively. When the fuel warning light comes on, it indicates that the fuel level is below the fuel pump. Waiting until the light comes on to refuel each time can shorten the fuel pump's lifespan, and having too little fuel in the tank may even cause the fuel pump to burn out. Choose to refuel in the morning or evening: Generally, temperatures are lower in the morning and evening, and gasoline has a lower vaporization point. Therefore, it is better to refuel during these times. Gasoline expands when hot and contracts when cold, and it is charged by volume. At lower temperatures, gasoline has a relatively higher density, and the mass per unit volume also increases, allowing you to get more fuel for the same price. Avoid filling the tank completely when driving in the city: When driving in urban areas, there is no need to fill the tank completely. A full tank adds extra weight to the engine, increasing fuel consumption. Since refueling is convenient in the city, there is no need to fill the tank to its maximum capacity.
