Do not Pump Full Tank of Petrol.......
READ THE REASONS -- DO NOT DONATE FUEL
Recently I came across a very useful tip. I was surprised to know it but had a doubt so I
talked to one of the pump technicians and he too accepted it as a fact. I think apart from
providing space for the gas generated inside the petrol tank this is yet another reason
why we shouldn't fill the tank to the brim. Many of us are not aware that the petrol kiosk
pump has a return pipe-line (in Pink). When the petrol tank (in the car) reaches full level,
there is a mechanism to trigger off the pump latch and at the same time a return-valve
is opened (at the top of the pump station) to allow excess petrol to flow back into the
pump. But the return petrol has already pass through the meter, meaning you are
donating the petrol back to the Oil Dealer.

Also only fill up your car or truck in the early morning when the ground temperature is
still cold. Remember that all service stations have their storage tanks buried below
ground. The colder the ground the more dense the petrol, when it gets warmer petrol
expands, so buying in the afternoon or in the evening....your liter is not exactly a liter. In
the petroleum business, the specific gravity and the temperature of the petrol, diesel
and jet fuel, ethanol and other petroleum products plays an important role.
A 1-degree rise in temperature is a big deal for this business. But the service stations
do not have temperature compensation at the pumps.
When you're filling up do not squeeze the trigger of the nozzle to a fast mode If you look
you will see that the trigger has three (3) stages: low, middle, and high. You should be
pumping on low mode, thereby minimizing the vapours that are created while you are
pumping. All hoses at the pump have a vapour return. If you are pumping on the fast
rate, some of the liquid that goes to your tank becomes vapour. Those vapours are
being sucked up and back into the underground storage tank so you're getting less
worth for your money.
One of the most important tips is to fill up when your Petrol tank is HALF FULL. The
reason for this is the more Petrol you have in your tank the less air occupying its empty
space. petrol evaporates faster than you can imagine. petrol storage tanks have an
internal floating roof. This roof serves as zero clearance between the Petrol and the
atmosphere, so it minimizes the evaporation. Unlike service stations, here where I
work, every truck that we load is temperature compensated so that every litre is actually

work, every truck that we load is temperature compensated so that every litre is actually
the exact amount.
Another reminder, if there is a petrol truck pumping into the storage tanks when you
stop to buy Petrol, DO NOT fill up; most likely the petrol is being stirred up as the Petrol
is being delivered, and you might pick up some of the dirt that normally settles on the
bottom.
To have an impact, we need to reach literally millions of Petrol buyers. It's really simple
to do.
I'm sending this note to about thirty people. If each of you send it to at least ten more (30
x 10 = 300)...and those 300 send it to at least ten more (300 x 10 = 3,000) and so on, by
the time the message reaches the sixth generation of people, we will have reached over
Three MILLION consumers !!!!!!! If those three million get excited and pass this on to ten
friends each, then 30 million people will have been contacted!
If It goes one level further, you guessed it..... THREE HUNDRED MILLION PEOPLE!!!
Again, all you have to do is send this to 10 people. How long would it take?
