Many people find that some models of fuel tanks are on the left when buying a car, and some models have fuel tanks on the right. Why are the fuel tanks of different models different, and what is the difference between the two designs? Today Xiaobian will give you a good talk about the mystery of this.
In fact, whether the car fuel tank is on the left or on the right side has a lot to do with the international driving rules, the general Japanese car and The Korean car fuel tank are on the left, because the driving rules of Japan and South Korea are to drive on the left, so that the design can prevent the two vehicles from colliding with each other and causing an explosion. Moreover, Japanese and Korean cars are basically right-hand drive cars, the driver sits on the right side of the car, and the fuel tank is set on the left side to avoid accidents when refueling and hurt the driver.
The driving rules of Germany and China are all on the right, so the fuel tanks of German cars and domestic cars are basically set on the right. Due to the different positions of the car fuel tank, many car owners often forget whether the car fuel tank is on the left or right side when refueling, in fact, it is very simple to distinguish the position of the fuel tank mouth, as long as you look at the arrow on the dashboard fuel gauge position to identify which side it points to.
After talking about the location of the car fuel tank, let's talk about other knowledge about the car fuel tank. Many people will be very panicked when they see the red light of the car fuel tank on. In fact, everyone does not have to worry at all, because when the red light of the fuel tank is lit, in fact, there is still 5% of the oil left in the fuel tank, and this oil volume is not a problem at all to open another thirty or forty kilometers.
Therefore, when the red light of the car fuel tank is on, everyone does not have to panic at all, this bit of oil is completely enough for us to drive to the gas station to refuel. However, although there is still 5% of the fuel when the red light of the car fuel tank is on, everyone should not wait until the red light of the fuel tank is lit to refuel. When the yellow light of the car fuel tank is on, we can go to the gas station to refuel, which is also to protect the fuel tank pump.
Secondly, about the problem that the car tank is full of oil will jump the gun, in fact, because the gasoline blocks the gas pipe after the tank is filled, then the gas resistance will occur in the fuel pipe, resulting in gasoline can not enter the fuel tank, so it will jump the gun, and it will not cause any bad impact on the vehicle.
Although the car fuel tank is only a place to store gasoline, we usually have to maintain the car fuel tank, especially to clean the car fuel tank regularly. If the car fuel tank is not cleaned regularly, it will cause the car oil circuit to be blocked, which will affect the normal use of the car engine. Generally, the car fuel tank should be cleaned every three months, and after cleaning, the sealing of the fuel tank should be checked.
We usually in the maintenance of the car fuel tank in addition to regular cleaning of the car fuel tank, but also pay attention to regular inspection of the car fuel tank, when found that there is oil leakage in the oil circuit, must be sent to the repair shop in time for repair. In addition, when we refuel, we should also pay attention not to mix 92 and 95 gasoline, the two kinds of gasoline mixed will produce impurities, which will cause damage to the fuel tank.
