What to Pay Attention to When Refueling a Car
1 Answers
Precautions for refueling a car are as follows: 1. Fuel cap location: The fuel cap location is fundamental. If you don't confirm the fuel cap position before refueling, you might waste time and need to reposition. 2. Gasoline grade: There are several types of gasoline, each with different component ratios, leading to varying performance. Always check the gasoline grade before refueling. 3. Mixing gasoline: Some vehicles have higher gasoline requirements. If the required gasoline is unavailable, mixing for a short period has minimal impact, though lower-grade gasoline may have higher knock tendencies with little other effect. 4. Refueling after the pump clicks off: Many gas station attendants top off the tank to round up the charge, but in summer, fuel expansion due to heat can damage the fuel tank. 5. Fuel additives: Attendants often recommend fuel additives, but these don't fundamentally solve engine carbon buildup, so it's best to avoid them. 6. Static electricity: Dry winter weather increases static electricity risk, so take precautions to avoid serious consequences when refueling.
