Autumn and Winter Check-in Challenge
For car owners, it is very important to grasp the remaining fuel volume of the fuel tank in time. Not only does this help us time our refueling to avoid breakdowns due to lack of fuel while driving, but it also improves fuel economy. So, how do you check the amount of oil left in the tank?Below, we'll take a look at some practical tips to help you master this skill.
1. Dashboard tips.
Typically, there will be a fuel gauge on the dashboard of the car to show how much fuel is left in the tank. Fuel gauges are usually divided into two types: mechanical fuel gauges indicate the fuel level through a pointer, and electronic fuel gauges display the fuel level numerically or graphically. To see how much fuel is left in the tank, simply look at the fuel gauge on the dashboard.
Second, understand the fuel tank capacity.
Fuel tank capacity varies from vehicle to model, so knowing your car's fuel tank capacity can help you determine how much fuel you have left. You can check the vehicle instruction manual or consult the 4S shop directly to find out the exact capacity of the fuel tank.
3. Estimate the amount of remaining oil.
During driving, we can estimate the amount of fuel left in the tank based on the car's fuel consumption and mileage. Usually, fuel consumption per 100 kilometers can be calculated by a trip computer or manually. To get a more accurate estimate of the amount of fuel you have left, you can measure your fuel consumption multiple times in different road conditions and then average it.
Fourth, pay attention to the warning lights.
When the remaining fuel level of the fuel tank is close to the warning value, the fuel warning light on the instrument panel will light up. At this point, you should go to a gas station to refuel as soon as possible to avoid running out of fuel and causing your vehicle to break down. It should be noted that the warning light lighting conditions may be different for different models and brands, please refer to the vehicle manual.
Precautions for the use of automobile fuel tanks:
1.Don't wait for the tank to drain completely before refueling. Long-term operation may cause the oil pump to overheat and damage, affecting the life of the oil pump.
2.Choose the right gas station. Try to choose regular gas stations to avoid adding inferior fuel, which will affect the performance of the vehicle.
3.Clean the oil circuit regularly. Impurities in the fuel system can clog the oil circuit, resulting in poor oil supply and impacting engine performance. Regular cleaning of the oil circuit helps to keep the vehicle in good condition.
Through the above introduction, I believe you have a certain understanding of how to check the remaining oil volume of the fuel tank. Hopefully, these tips will help you better grasp the status of your vehicle and ensure driving safety. During driving, please always pay attention to the remaining fuel volume of the fuel tank and refuel in time to avoid accidents caused by insufficient fuel. Finally, I wish you all a happy trip and a smooth journey!
