Will Fuel Overflow When Refueling a Fixed Amount?
1 Answers
If you refuel a fixed amount, the fuel will not overflow when the tank is full. Here are the risks associated with fuel overflow: 1. Fire hazard: In hot weather, it can easily cause a fire. 2. Damage to parts: Spilled gasoline can soak surrounding components, causing certain damage. 3. Fuel tank expansion: Gasoline is volatile, and evaporation produces gases, especially when driving on bumpy roads. If the tank is filled to the point of overflow, there won’t be enough space to accommodate these gases, leading to tank expansion. If the tank’s vent is blocked, negative pressure can form inside the tank, potentially causing fuel supply issues in the vehicle.
