For those of you who often lazy refuel the car , you should start to be careful . This is a threat to the vehicle if the fuel tanks are often empty .
Maybe you are too busy to simply refuel the vehicle . If not completely discharged then the vehicle is still in continuous use . In fact , refuel before the tank is empty is not only beneficial for the security in the face of road traffic, but also can reduce the risk of rusting tank .
basically every fuel has a volatile nature . Too much of the air in the tank to speed up the evaporation process.
Water vapor contained in the tank will eventually turn into a point of water and sediment in the tank of the vehicle. As a result , the metal will quickly rust the tank material .
"If the tank is empty , it means that the amount of air in the tank is also growing. Means that posed a potential rust also greater , " .
If such a condition is left unchecked , it is not likely to spread to other problems in the vehicle . Primarily , related to the fuel filter and fuel pump which have to work harder as a result of the number of impurities contained in the tank .
"If a lot of dirt in the tank , the gas pump could be clogged , so the work was too heavy and can cause heartburn . Consequently , Rotak can die alone , " said Agus .
So is the fuel filter could be dirty quickly because of the impurities to be filtered . " So to be diligent in cleaning the filter and replaced periodically if it passes mileage of 10,000 miles or 2 times the equivalent engine oil change " .
In addition , drain the tank car regularly to remove dirt buildup. At a minimum , when the vehicle had 50,000 miles melapaui distance or 2 years of use .
" In spite of a tank with a plastic design , it is not possible debris buildup harmful impact to the vehicle , " he said .
Finally, it's worth the refueling is done long before the tank is completely empty . At the very least , when the fuel quantity indicator had crossed the center line directly recharge the fuel .
" The more fuel in the tank car , means the less air in the tank . By doing so , the potential for a bit of rust can be minimized , " .
