What Does Low Fuel Mean?
2 Answers
Low fuel indicates that there is a minimal amount of gasoline left in the vehicle's fuel tank. More knowledge about automotive fuel is as follows: 1. Introduction: Automotive fuel mainly refers to the fuel used in gasoline engines (spark-ignition engines) and diesel engines (compression-ignition engines), which currently serve as the primary power source for vehicle operation. With the development of the global economy, the number of vehicles in use has been increasing year by year, and the environmental pollution caused by vehicle exhaust has become increasingly severe, becoming one of the major sources of air pollution. 2. Alternatives: Automobile manufacturers are continuously improving engine combustion systems, adopting advanced electronic control technologies and high-performance pollution control devices. While using unleaded gasoline, they are also investing heavily in the development of alternative fuels and vehicles that produce fewer emissions and are more environmentally friendly. On a global scale, the most successful alternative fuels are liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and compressed natural gas (CNG). Since the 1980s, various alternative fuel vehicles and electric vehicles have become the focus of research and development for cleaner fuels.
My years of driving experience tell me that low fuel means the warning light on the dashboard comes on, indicating that the tank is almost empty and you need to find a gas station immediately. If ignored, the car may suddenly stall on the road, which is especially dangerous on highways or long trips, and can also damage the fuel pump system, costing a lot to repair. It's best to develop the habit of looking for a gas station when the fuel level drops to a quarter. Remember, this is not a trivial matter—it's about driving safety, so don't wait for the warning to act. Some new cars have a remaining mileage display, but don't rely on it too much, as fuel consumption varies under different road conditions.
