What to Do If You've Filled Up with Poor-Quality Gasoline?
1 Answers
Completely remove the remaining gasoline from the fuel tank and refill with higher-quality gasoline. Here are some details about dealing with poor-quality gasoline: 1. Remedial Measures: Clean the fuel injectors, combustion chambers, and replace the fuel filter and fuel pump, as they can easily get clogged by excessive impurities. Only by doing so can all the poor-quality gasoline be thoroughly removed. However, it's best to leave this task to professionals at 4S shops or auto repair shops, as it goes beyond our capabilities to handle it properly. Mishandling could potentially damage the engine. 2. Effects of Poor-Quality Gasoline: Not only does it reduce the car's power output, but it also causes noticeable vibrations and unusual noises during idling. Additionally, poor-quality gasoline often lacks good anti-knock properties, making the engine prone to knocking. Over time, this can lead to significant carbon buildup, increasing fuel consumption. In severe cases, it can damage the catalytic converter, resulting in very high repair costs.
