Tips On Filling Your Cars

Petrol is becoming more and more expensive.

Here are some tricks to get more of your money's worth for every liter:

1. Only buy or fill up your car in the early morning when the ground temperature is still cold. Remember that all gasoline stations have their storage tanks buried below ground. The colder the ground, the more dense the fuel is. The petrol expands when it gets warmer. Therefore, buying fuel in the afternoon or in the evening, your liter is not exactly a liter.

2. When you are filling up, avoid squeezing the trigger of the nozzle to the fastest mode. The trigger has three (3) stages, low, mid and high. In slow mode, you should be pumping on low speed, thereby minimizing the vapors that are created while pumping. If pumping on a fast rate, some of the liquid that goes to the tank becomes vapor. Those vapors are being sucked up and back into the underground storage tank so you're getting less worth for your money.

3. Fill up when your tank is Half Full. The more fuel you have in your tank the less air is occupying its empty space. Petrol evaporates faster than you can imagine.

4. Lastly, do not fill up when there is a fuel truck pumping into the storage tanks when you stop to buy. The petrol is being stirred up most likely. The fuel being delivered to your tank might pick up some of the dirt that normally settles at the bottom.

Hope this will help you get the most value for your money.
