New Hainan client, Nanhai Net, Nanguo Metropolis Daily November 22 news (reporter Zhang Ye) Recently, the "120 liter fuel tank was added to 161 liters of oil" in Sichuan has aroused concern on the Internet, and the gas station involved has been dealt with accordingly for suspected metering fraud. On the 20th, Mr. Hou, the owner of the Hainan car, told the new Hainan client reporter that he had experienced a similar experience.
Mr. Hou introduced that at noon on the 20th, when he drove to the vicinity of the Wanning Shenzhou Peninsula, he found that the vehicle was almost out of gas, so he came to the Sinopec gas station (Wanning Lianxing Station) to refuel, "The fuel tank of my car is 60 liters, so that he (the staff) is full, but when it is added to 60 liters, the amount of fuel on the tanker is still going." ”
Mr. Hou told reporters that before refueling, his oil dial showed that the vehicle still had a block of oil, and it was reasonable to say that filling a tank of oil should not exceed 60 liters, but in the end the tanker showed that 63 liters were added, "I asked the staff, and he explained to me that it was a 'normal phenomenon', because there were only 3 liters more, and it was not too calculating at that time." ”
Then, Mr. Hou thought about the recent "120 liter fuel tank was added to 161 liters of oil" that he had seen in Sichuan, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, and he suspected that the gas station was suspected of fraud.
With Mr. Hou's doubts, the reporter contacted Yao Tao, deputy manager of the relevant person in charge of Sinopec Wanning Petroleum Branch, by phone, and the other party told the reporter that Mr. Hou did add oil to the gas station that day, and the gas dispenser showed that it did add 63 liters.
In this case, Yao Tao explained that for general vehicles, the actual capacity of the fuel tank is greater than the nominal capacity, and the nominal capacity of the general automobile fuel tank is about 90% of the actual capacity, so when the oil is filled, it can be about 10% more than the nominal capacity, "so the 60 liter tank plus 63 liters of oil is a normal phenomenon." ”
Yao Tao said that the market supervision and management department will regularly check and calibrate the oil guns of Various Petrochina gas stations, so there is no "fraud" as Mr. Hou said.
Subsequently, the reporter reflected Mr. Hou's encounter to the Wanning Municipal Market Supervision and Administration Bureau, and the relevant person in charge said that personnel would be arranged to go to the gas station involved to inspect, and if there were violations of laws and regulations, they would be punished according to regulations.
