How to fill a full tank. Why you shouldn't fill up with a full tank

13.06.2019

Today I want to talk about this topic. How profitable is it to refuel in 5 - 10 liters, or fill in a full tank? How to refuel?What is more profitable and better for your car, let's figure it out ...

Refueling 5 - 10 liters, it makes little sense. I would even say that this is not very rational, and it can even harm your car. How? - you ask. Yes, very simple. If you are an ordinary foreign car, then it has a gas pump in the tank and, so to speak, must be constantly immersed in fuel. If you like to fill up not completely, but 5-10 liters, and ride with the “fuel sensor light on”, then there is a chance that your gas pump will start swallowing air along with gasoline. And this is not good for him. The fuel pump begins to strain, suck out at least some fuel from the tank, thereby overheating and may break. And the cost of a gasoline pump is not very small, from 1500 to 3500 rubles. That is, deliberately, without pouring a full tank, you expose your fuel pump to an additional load.

Secondly, I myself did not conduct a large experiment. The first week I filled up a full tank. Traveled n - th number of kilometers. The next week I filled up ten liters, at the same gas station. Refueling turned out to be four to five times more. But I drove 25 - 35 km less. Why is this happening? Yes, because when you fill up, gas stations have their own minimum underfill limit. All this is according to the rules, there is no deception here. Underfilling can be from 50 to 100 grams. When you fill up completely, then you have one allowable underfill. And then you calmly drive around the city, your consumption will conditionally decrease. But if you fill up the car five times a week, then the allowable underfilling, you do not top up your tank every time you fill up, your consumption increases. If we take into account the minimum underfilling of 50 grams, then 5 * 50 grams = 250 grams of fuel. This is if we take an honest petrol station, as a rule, our automatic machines do not top up more, and you will lose much more fuel when refueling 5-10 liters. Again, the queues at gas stations, warming up the car in the winter in the queue and cooling the air conditioner in the summer, also eats up a certain supply of fuel.

So what motivates those who fill up 5-10 liters each? One dubious point is that if you fill up on 5 - 10 liters, then more money will remain. Well, not at all seriously. Fill it up and forget about it for a week or more, you get the same money, and also a gain in fuel and time. Again, suddenly an unexpected country trip. And you don’t have fuel, you will go looking for a gas station, again a loss of time. There is also another point that “thrifty drivers” justify, this is that they can drain fuel. Guys this is bullshit! No, of course, it is possible to drain the fuel from the tank, but it should be noted that it is not very easy to do this on a foreign car, firstly, in 80% of cases there is a tank filler door that closes from the passenger compartment, and secondly, if there is none, then it just won’t work out anyway, because the neck itself is now on foreign cars and even on our VAZs, it is very tightly twisted; it is almost impossible to drag the hose there.

So the pluses full refueling a lot, but 5 - 10 liters, to put it mildly, is impractical to fill. Well, if you, by no means, want to refuel to the eyeballs, refuel at least half. Moreover, in the summer this is exactly what you need to do, the thing is that gasoline expands by 5-7% in hot weather, and if you fill a full tank in hot weather and don’t go anywhere, that is, the mileage will be less than 50 kilometers, that is, there is a risk that the tank will lose its tightness, it will simply be opened. So in the heat, do not add 5 - 7 liters.

That's all, with useful tips our

Instruction

Don't worry, you don't have to remember the capacity of your tank, you don’t have to calculate how many liters have not yet been used up and how much more can be poured. This process is no different from the usual refueling of the car. You come to the gas station in the same way, stop at the dispenser with the right fuel. Open the petrol hatch tank and insert the gun, or trust it to the tanker. After that, as usual, go to the cashier.

The only difference between this process and a regular gas station is the words you say to the cashier. Instead of the usual ones: dispensers, fuel grades and the number of liters, you tell the cashier: dispenser number, fuel brand and “full tank” or “full”. The process has begun, the pump has turned on, pouring into the tank of your car. No additional effort is needed, no need to run to, look into the hole tank and wait for the moment to u take out the gun. Automation will do everything itself. Car filling stations are equipped with guns that automatically turn off when filling tank.

Payment can be made in two ways. In the first case, you tell the cashier "to the full" and after refueling, pay for the filled. In another case, they may ask you obviously more, for example: your tank holds 46 liters, and you pay 50. After that, the cashier looks at how many liters of fuel fit into your tank and returns the change for unfilled liters.

At the gas station you are always ready to suggest, help, direct. Contact an assistant or a cashier, and everything will be explained to you on the spot.

For experienced car owners, there is nothing easier than refueling the car when necessary, but for beginners, visiting the gas station is surprisingly difficult.

Are there any rules that must be observed during refueling? Are there any difficulties here? Let's consider these issues in more detail and try to prepare novice drivers for a visit to the gas station.

First of all, you need to figure out when you need to refuel?

The answer to this question can give himself. Everyone should watch the fuel gauge very carefully. If the light on the indicator lights up, and the nearest gas station is still far away, this is not the most pleasant situation. In order not to get into it, it is necessary to replenish the fuel supply in advance. Experienced drivers it is advised to stop by for a gas station if the indicator has exceeded the ½ mark.

Despite the fact that there are so many gas stations around, it is unacceptable to refuel at the one that comes across. You need to get acquainted in advance with reviews and the quality of fuel at gas stations and go only to those that have a decent reputation.

So, you ended up at a gas station, however, how exactly to replenish the supply of gasoline necessary for the further journey?

First of all, you need to find the gas tank hatch, since different cars it may be located in different places. Further stands at the gas station in accordance with the location of the hatch. After that, the hatch must be opened, muffled. Before pouring fuel, it is necessary to correctly determine its type: diesel or gasoline. Using the wrong fuel will inevitably lead to spoilage.

Modern gas stations are not always accompanied by the help of tankers, which is why you will have to fill the gun into the tank yourself and gently pull the trigger. After the fuel supply is stopped, it is necessary to remove the gun and hang it in place, and after that close the hatch.

It's so easy and you can refuel the car yourself, but it is especially important to do it in a timely manner.

Why go to the gas station?

A car, as you know, is not a luxury, but a means of transportation. Luxury is a full tank of gas. Looking into the sad eyes of credit Solaris and Captures, I understand that the feeling of a full tank is practically unknown to them. And yet, even their owners sometimes (on payday) stop by for a gas station. So, how do you know when it's time to refuel?

Sign one: fuel level readings. If its arrow (or the number of sticks-divisions) tends to zero, gasoline runs out. Not every motorist can accurately understand how much gasoline in liters is left in the tank (especially when it comes to just the same “sticks”). But in many modern cars there is a wonderful device - on-board computer. It can show not the remaining fuel in liters, but the distance in kilometers, how long it will last. And if “50 km” is written there, this does not mean that this gasoline can be stretched by 150 km by reading mantras. Yes, of course, there is a reserve. But it's best not to drive.

Sign two: caught fire signal lamp fuel level. It's already bad sign. It may be enough for 50 kilometers on the highway, maybe for five around the city in traffic jams. And if there is no gas station nearby, then everything is bad.

Sign three: the car stalled. If at the same time the light is on, then the gasoline has definitely run out. At all. And this is already very bad: firstly, now you have to look for this gasoline somewhere, and secondly, it harms the fuel pump injection cars. And all due to the fact that the fuel pump is right inside the tank, it is immersed in gasoline and cooled by it. If there is no gasoline, then the pump heats up more than necessary, which reduces its resource. By the way, for the same reason, you should not ride “on a light bulb”, there should always be ten liters in the tank.

What are we going to pour?

Listen to the sound of a car engine before you go to the gas station. If the engine rumbles perceptibly and persistently, then it is most likely diesel. In this case, you need to fill it only with diesel fuel (solar oil, that is). We will talk about diesel fuel separately - today we will talk mainly about gasoline.

Many are wondering what kind of gasoline to pour: Normal-80, Regular-92, Premium-95 or Super-98. Those who remember the 80th (and even the 76th) gasoline do not need our advice: these people still know why there was a wet rag on the Moskvich's gas pump and how to make a needle valve of the carburetor float chamber from a disposable lighter.

With other gasolines, everything is more complicated. You can, of course, rewrite a couple of articles from Wikipedia about gasoline, but we will not do this. Today is the time for life hacks, so here is life hack number one for you: the brand of recommended gasoline is indicated in the instruction manual for your car! Yes, that's right, you can check it out.

If this booklet is already lost in its original sealed form, then here is life hack number two: open the gas tank flap and look at it inside- they usually also indicate the gasoline used. So, let's say you find out that AI-95 needs to be poured into the gas tank of your car. And here comes the most important question: how to do it right?

When to go to the gas station?

Not everyone knows that you need to call at the gas station correctly. The point is that the vast majority modern cars there is only one tank and one filler neck (yes, UAZ owners, smile). Accordingly, you need to drive up to the column with the right side - the one where there is a gas tank hatch. And here, too, many cannot (and even more often do not want to) do this as expected. Okay, here's life hack number three: on the fuel gauge there is an icon in the form of a gas station column. This is the side on which the hose is drawn, on the other side you have the gas tank hatch.

Everything is much worse when a professional ram pulls up to the gas station. The one who knows perfectly well where his gas tank is, but does not want to stand in line and brazenly breaks towards the traffic pattern on the territory of the gas station. You see, he's in a hurry. No one likes such car owners, in hell they will forever change candles for along with “sidewalls” and “second row”. Unfortunately, standing up against the flow and interfering with the rest, they usually only spoil their karma, and not their faces.

Anyway. Let's say your wife is giving birth in your car, you need to refuel as quickly as possible, and only the opposite side of the column is free. What to do? In most cases, the length of the hose is enough to stretch it behind the car and refuel without any problems. Doing this is also undesirable, and not all gas stations allow this, but if you really need it, then you can.

So, we have already figured out how to determine the need for refueling and how to drive up to the column. Now we will learn how to open the gas tank hatch.

What does the hatch say

There are two traditional ways to open the hatch: with a button from the passenger compartment and simply by pressing the hatch. If you just stole a car and do not know how to open the hatch on this particular car, then this is a real disaster. Try first to put pressure on it with your hand - if it does not open, then you will have to look for the button.

Now consider the situation a little more complicated: winter, frost, and the hatch is frozen. What to do? There are two options. The first one is to pick out. The second is to search alternative way. On some vehicles, it is possible to open the gas tank from the trunk. To do this, there is a handle on the side of the hatch, connected to the lock with a thick fishing line or something like it. If you pull the handle and at the same time try to loosen the hatch, it will open. By the way, the same method is also used if there is no reaction to pressing the button (for example, in the event of a wiring, actuator or button failure).

Oddly enough, the hatch is needed not only to close the cork with a neck. It has several more functions: you can hang an unscrewed neck plug on the hatch and even determine whether the car has been repainted (sometimes this is possible). How does the sunroof allow you to do this? Everything is very simple: often paint is selected on it to restore the paintwork, and for this it is removed and given to paint selection specialists. Why is this knowledge useful?

Suppose you are going to buy used car. Look at the hatch bolts (if any): if they show traces of contact with a screwdriver, then it was definitely removed. And they do it only for the selection of paint, which should alert. By the way, this is the fourth life hack.

What to do with the gas cap?

The gas tank cap, of course, needs to be unscrewed. As I said, it is best to insert it into a special place, often provided on reverse side hatch. And in no case should it be placed on the trunk lid of a car. Firstly, you can forget it there, and secondly, gasoline will definitely leak from it onto the metal of your car. Therefore, if I see that the tanker unscrews the cap and tries to put it on my trunk, I start yelling at him. First, be polite.

By the way, the cap should prevent theft of gasoline from your car. It's no secret that we still sometimes drain gasoline. For example, about ten years ago I tried to use a lid with a combination lock. And they stole it along with gasoline. It's a shame so far. If it has not been stolen from you yet, then I strongly recommend drying it sometimes, and treating it with some kind of defrosting liquid in frost: thieves, if they want, it will not hurt, but if it freezes, you will have to dance with it.

How to fill in gasoline?

It would seem: insert the gun and pour! And here it is not.

First, we take the right gun (that is, with necessary gasoline). Now, yes, we insert it into the neck and pour it. How much is too intimate a question. But general recommendations is still there. And there are two of them: do not pour too little and do not pour too much.

The first advice applies to more or less fresh cars: the electronics do not always correctly evaluate small amounts of fuel, and the level sensor starts to go crazy. This may well be familiar, for example, to the owners of new Dusters. Well, the second advice is for those who pour down the neck: why? It’s very rare, but it still happens that the same level sensor doesn’t like it, and it’s easier to drop gasoline on the paint near the hatch, which does not benefit the paintwork.

So, we pour gasoline and look at the counter of liters / rubles. Sometimes disputes arise: to measure in liters or rubles? Refuel for a thousand or 30 liters? To be honest, I do not understand the meaning of the disputes. Maybe you have some thoughts on this?

The most important thing is to correctly pull the gun out of the tank. No matter how much you shake it, a few drops from it will still flow onto the car. The main thing here is not to rush and carefully drain all the remnants from the hose into the tank. Let me insert a phrase of my friend, in which he apparently put the results of many years of observation: “A properly shaken hose saves 7 g of fuel for every 8,769 kg of refueling.” I can’t vouch for the accuracy of the calculations, but the main thing here is that these seven grams get into the tank, and not on the paintwork.

Tanker: friend or foe?

Recently, the cult of tankers has begun to grow in our country by leaps and bounds. It is clear that any gas station networks I want to attract customers, and the service is a good bait for many. What are good and what are bad tankers? Well, firstly, disputes often arise: whether to give them a tip. Here I can’t advise anything - it all depends on your generosity, interest in their services, mood and availability of small things.

But the second question is much more significant. Somehow it so happened historically that we are all not always sure about the quality of Russian gasoline. It's one thing when you refuel for a long time on proven large gas station networks. And if it is also not a franchise (which, in fact, is rare), then in general beauty. But if you had to fill up gasoline somewhere on the highway at a very muddy gas station, then concerns about fuel quality are well founded. And in this case, I still sometimes use own hand: if at least a little bit of gasoline is dropped on it, then you can pay attention to the following.

Gasoline, if it is good, evaporates completely, after it there should not be any greasy traces. If there is even the slightest hint of a trace of fat after evaporation, then it is better to postpone refueling until the next gas station: this one may not bother much with fuel storage, and diesel fuel containers are used to store gasoline. Well, or vice versa. In a word, there is a risk. But it is often impossible to determine it if all the manipulations are carried out by the tanker. So it is likely that sometimes it makes sense to get your hands dirty. Of course, this does not apply to proven gas stations near the house.

What else do you need to remember when refueling?

Everything is simple here: we don’t shine a lighter into the tank, we don’t leave a filling pistol in the neck and we don’t try to leave with it, we don’t forget to pay for gasoline. We smile at the checkout (preferably, but not necessary), but we don’t smile at the one who climbs out of line, but look at him frowningly and accusingly (also not necessary), we help the ladies behind the wheel, carefully count liters and rubles and don’t let ourselves be shortchanged . Even today - the first of April, April Fool's Day.

Do you pay gas station attendants?

What would be better, fill your car with 5 liters of gasoline every day or fill a full tank at once? The second option is convenient in that once having refueled to a full tank, then it will be possible to drive and not think about the fact that there may not be enough gasoline for soon.There is no savings from refueling the tank every day at 5 liters, but at the same time you will have to go to gas stations more often.

Attention! If you fill up 5 liters every day, then over time this will lead to wear of the fuel pump.

If there is too little fuel left in the tank, it will begin to “grab” air, which will lead to its rapid breakdown, its motor may burn out. And saving on refueling, you risk getting to replace the fuel pump, which is quite expensive even for domestic cars not to mention foreign cars.

My principle is this, I fill up a full tank as soon as the emergency amount of gasoline lamp gives a signal. When such a fuel lamp comes on enough to drive about another 30 - 40 kilometers at a normal pace. But in this case, you should not delay with refueling. Let me tell you one incident from my life. One motorist lit up such a light bulb, and she ignored it. And calmly rode on, thinking that there were still a couple of liters of gasoline in the tank. And this amount of fuel was exactly enough for her to get home without any problems. The next morning the car just wouldn't start. She had to urgently look for a few liters of gasoline in order to pour into her gas tank. This, as you understand, is a hassle that no one needs, and the nerves spent are hardly worth such savings on refueling.

Why did this happen

Firstly, you should not completely trust the arrow of the remaining fuel in the tank, this is an ordinary information indicator that cannot show the exact amount of fuel. Information on it is needed only to approximately calculate the remaining fuel within plus or minus 5 liters.

Secondly, the gasoline balance meter is actually inert. For example, if you drive for a long time on the highway, try turning off the ignition, and then turning it back on. You will be very surprised, since the fuel arrow may no longer show you such a value, not already so rosy. This is all due to the fact that the reading of data regarding the remaining fuel in the gas tank is not entirely in real time, but a little late, because. This sensor has its own inertia. Otherwise act digital pointers fuel quantities that take data directly from the engine control unit. But still, you should not trust such measurements either, since they calculate the amount of fuel not from a gas tank, but from their own calibrations, which, due to incorrect calculations, can affect the accuracy of the measurements obtained.

Thirdly, we must not forget that the car is able to move quietly even when there is no fuel in the tank at all, but it still remains in the fuel lines and the pump. As in that example with the motorist. She just drove on the remnants of gasoline, and after turning off the car, the fuel glass back into the tank. And the next day fuel pump there just wasn’t enough gasoline left to pump it into fuel lines and nozzles.

From all of the above, I can conclude that it is not worth driving with a constantly lit remaining fuel light. Better refuel big amount gasoline so that there is always at least 5 liters left. So you can extend the life of the fuel pump and save your nerves.

What is the best way to fuel a car

IN winter time You must try to fill the gas tank to the full mark. This is due to the fact that when the gas tank is empty, it becomes more likely for the accumulation of condensate from the water due to the temperature difference in winter. The more water is contained in the gas tank, the worse the car will drive, since water is not combustible. Then in the spring you will have to remove water from the gas tank using car chemicals or alcohol.

Advice! When refueling to a full gas tank, it is necessary to take into account not only the volume of the gas tank itself, but, in addition, filler neck. As an example, with a passport tank volume of 41 liters, it can actually fit 45 liters.

Do not forget about the underfilling of gasoline at gas stations, use the services of only proven gas stations. Having saved on refueling with cheap gasoline, you can get into a very expensive engine repair. Quite often there were cases when the car after refueling drove only 100 meters, and then the car stalled. The verdict is simple - overhaul engine due to refueling with low-quality gasoline.

At the gas station, it will not work to confuse gasoline and diesel hoses, since they have different diameters. So do not even try to fill the car with other fuel. But such cases do happen, and often enough.

Today, without exception, all cars, motorcycles are equipped with internal combustion engines.

That is why periodically, depending on the volume of the engine and other factors affecting fuel consumption, they must be refueled at a special station.

Exists various fuels- gasoline, diesel and gas. In this case, in the first two cases, it is required to refuel using a special gun.

There are certain rules for using such a device. The need to comply with it is due to security.

Since gasoline and diesel fuel are flammable liquids. Their use is associated with a high risk of fire.

Basic information

Today automatic gas stations on the territory Russian Federation Hardly ever.

That is why, in almost all cases, without exception, car owners are required to independently refuel vehicle. In addition, not all gas stations have refuellers.

Therefore, it is worth familiarizing yourself with the basic rules for using special columns for replenishment in advance. fuel tank vehicle.

There are certain nuances that are directly related to the replenishment of the car's tank. On this moment there is a certain list of fire safety rules.

There are frequent cases when, in case of non-compliance this rule there were serious fires. Moreover, it was not always possible to do without casualties.

That is why, before you start using a gun to refuel a vehicle, you will need to familiarize yourself with the algorithm for implementing this procedure.

The main issues, the preliminary consideration of which will help to avoid various kinds of troubles (including a fire):

what do you need to know?
choice of filling.

What you need to know

The algorithm for refueling a vehicle at a gas station is completely standard.

But at the same time, it is important to remember some essential points, rules that must be observed without fail.

These key points include:

You should use a column that is located on the side of the tank of the car	Different models are supplied with a filler hole with different sides body (do not try to reach the gun if the tank is on the other side)
It is worth knowing in advance what kind of gasoline needs to be poured into a particular vehicle	Or a solar
Refueling automatically stops when the tank is full	Special check valve(but if possible, you need to independently control the process of filling the fuel tank in order to avoid overfilling)
It is forbidden to smoke on the territory of the gas station, use open fire	Especially in the immediate vicinity of the gas station
Do not leave the car open at the gas station while payment is being made	It is imperative to block all doors (for some time, car thieves practiced theft from vehicles standing at a gas station)
If you need to purchase gasoline "in reserve", then you need to drain it into a metal container	At the gas station it is forbidden to pour fuel into plastic containers

It is also important to give Special attention directly to the process of choosing a filling station. It is important not to confuse the brands of gasoline, as well as the type of fuel itself.

For example, if you pour diesel fuel into an engine designed to run on gasoline, there is a high probability of its failure and failure, and a major overhaul will be required.

Usually in driving schools they simply do not explain the process of refueling. Therefore, you need to figure out the main nuances of this procedure in advance and independently.

Refueling selection

High-quality fuel is the key to long-term operation of the engine, the absence of various kinds of breakdowns.

It is important to understand that the quality of fuel at different filling stations differs quite significantly. Moreover, this is influenced not only by the brand itself, but also by the regional location, otherwise.

There are certain criteria according to which you will need to select a particular gas station.

For 2019 among gas stations in Moscow the largest number positive feedback collected car refueling Shell.

It is on it that most demanding motorists refuel. Especially noticeable difference compared to other gas stations when pouring gasoline 95th.

The second in quality can be safely identified as a gas station Lukoil. About 5 years ago, the quality of fuel left much to be desired.

But relatively recently it has become much higher. There are several reasons for this. First of all, there is relatively high competition from other filling stations.

But at the same time, the cost of gasoline at this gas station is an order of magnitude higher than at the others. Gazprom leaves many with a double impression.

Some drivers consider the fuel from this supplier to be of sufficient quality for use in both foreign and domestic cars.

At the same time, some drivers are extremely negative about this gas station. Most likely fuel quality different gas stations really significantly different.

Therefore, it is worth choosing places for filling the tank empirically. The choice of which gas station is better to refuel the car is sometimes also done on the basis of geographical location.

The closer such a gas station is to the house, the more often it is visited. Before pouring a full bank in any particular place, you should definitely read the reviews.

Various resources present a large number of different studies on the quality of gasoline from different gas stations.

Be sure to check out these studies. This will avoid certain problems with the operation of the engine, with overtaking on the highway.

It often happens that low-quality gasoline affects the speed of the vehicle. In certain cases, even have to replace the glow plugs.

Step-by-step instruction

Figuring out how to refuel a car at a gas station with methane is quite simple. But it is necessary to remember certain nuances associated with the use of such columns.

Moreover, the algorithm for refueling with gas and ordinary gasoline differs significantly. The main mandatory issues for preliminary consideration:

how to fill up a car at a gas station without a tanker;
types of fuel.

How to fill up a car at a gas station without a tanker

The process of refueling with ordinary gasoline or diesel fuel at a gas station is as simple as possible. Any difficulties usually do not arise.

The fuel filling algorithm is as follows:

the car is muffled;
turns on hand brake in order to avoid rolling the vehicle - it is also possible to use speed;
select the type of fuel required and remove the gun from a special seat;
the gun is inserted into the tank;
remember the column number, as well as the brand of gasoline used;
at the checkout we pay to the full or we purchase a certain amount of gasoline;
we refuel the car;
remove the gun from the filler neck;
set the gun in place;
screw the cap on the tank.

One of the most common problems at gas stations is that some drivers simply forget to pull the gun out of the tank and start moving.

As a result, the pistol pulls out of the column while the vehicle is moving, it hits rear window and breaks it.

In this case, the driver simultaneously "gets" two large sums - it needs to be repaired own car, as well as damaged property of a gas station.

That is why it is best for inexperienced or simply forgetful drivers to use the services of tankers.

Video: how to refuel a car

This is the only way to avoid various problems, difficulties associated with the refueling process. Also, there are often difficulties with filling gasoline on old columns.

The gun must be kept in the same position at all times. Otherwise, the non-return valve is activated even if for some reason the tank has not yet been filled.

Fuel types

Today in the territory of the Russian Federation it is allowed to operate cars on various types fuel. First of all, these are gasoline and diesel engines.

You can also often find vehicles on the road that use special gas as fuel. The filling principle is somewhat different due to different densities different types fuel.

Petrol

Gasoline is one of the most common types of fuel. Slightly less common solar. However, the way they carry out refueling is similar. Since the density of these fuels is actually the same.

But it is important to remember that it is not allowed to use in gasoline engines solarium and vice versa. This is fraught with a complete failure of the engine.

Gas

The gas filling algorithm is somewhat different. It looks like this:

the car engine is turned off;
a visual inspection of the equipment is carried out;
a gun is installed in the VZU;
gas is supplied;
pistol is disconnected.

You can't hold a gun. It is also necessary to remember that the cut-off is triggered before the full filling of the cylinder. Since, in accordance with the PTB, the maximum filling of the cylinder is allowed only by 85%.

Emerging nuances

Exist the following nuances related to refueling the car:

if up to a full tank;
newbie tips.

If up to a full tank

In the case of refueling to a full tank, it is worth remembering that today all dispensers are equipped with equipment equipped with a non-return valve.

It is due to it that the fuel supply from the column is turned off. That is why it is possible to simply fix the fuel supply knob - after which the tank will be filled completely automatically.
