Where is the fuel tank switch located on a Chevrolet?

Chevrolet's fuel tank cap switch is located on the fuel tank cap itself, which features a press-to-open mechanism. When the car is unlocked, simply press the fuel tank cap to open it. If the external fuel tank cap is damaged and cannot be opened, you can pull the fuel tank release ring located on the right side of the trunk to open the cap. During daily driving, it is essential to monitor the remaining fuel level in the tank. This is typically done by observing the fuel gauge inside the car. Under normal circumstances, the fuel level will be accurately reflected on the gauge. Most fuel gauges have 5 to 6 segments, and it is advisable to refuel when only 2 segments remain to avoid running out of fuel mid-journey. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the marked capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity specified by the manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safety limit, with additional space left between the safety limit and the tank opening. This extra space ensures that the fuel can expand when temperatures rise without overflowing. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the marked tank capacity.
