Many car owners are used to filling up the tank every time they refuel, but is this right? Today, let OLM explain to you how much fuel should be added to a car.
How much fuel is added is a personal habit. Some long-distance vehicles run for a long time, so it is normal to fill up the tank, but for ordinary private cars, it is completely unnecessary to fill the tank.
Because filling up the tank will not only bring extra burden to the car's driving and increase fuel consumption, but also the oil in the tank may overflow if it is too full, which will bring hidden dangers to safe driving. Therefore, for car owners who do not drive much mileage every day, it is more economical and safe to fill up half a tank each time.
It is not good to fill up the tank when it is too empty. The oil pump will be exposed to the air, which is not conducive to heat dissipation. Air and impurities may also enter the oil circuit with gasoline, affecting the normal operation of the oil pump, engine and three-way catalytic converter, because this is air that has not been purified by the air filter, which may cause the oil pump to burn out in serious cases.
The correct way to refuel is to refuel when the oil level indicator drops to 1/4, and fill up until the tank is about 1/5 empty, rather than filling it up.
