fuel level gauge for diesel tank
Generally, the way to check the fuel tank capacity of a car is to observe the reading through the fuel gauge in the car. If there are no other problems, the value of fuel quantity will be truly reflected on the fuel gauge. The fuel gauge of the instrument generally has 5-6 compartments, and each compartment represents the capacity of the remaining vehicle in the fuel tank. Generally speaking, when there are two compartments left in the fuel gauge, refueling is required.
Calculation unit of fuel tank capacity: l (liter) is used as the calculation unit of vehicle fuel tank capacity in international standards. Different countries have corresponding standards for vehicle fuel tank capacity. China stipulates that the capacity of automobile fuel tank is 95% of the rated value, but according to the actual situation, the actual capacity is generally greater than the nominal capacity, so there is no need to worry that the automobile fuel tank is less than the actual capacity.
How to check the capacity of automobile diesel fuel tank
1. Check through the operation manual: the operation manual of the car can be said to be omnipotent. It can be said to have a detailed introduction to the car, from the maintenance period to the capacity of the fuel tank. The owner can refuel according to the capacity, preferably not exceeding the safe capacity.
2. From the refueling experience: for some old drivers, they also know some precautions during refueling and guide how much fuel should be added, which is a little more than the safe capacity, but lower than the actual capacity, so they will not refuel the fuel tank port and there will be no other accidents.
3. Judge according to the warning light of the oil gauge: many car owners use this method to judge, but there is a certain error in fact, and the displayed capacity will vary greatly according to different road conditions and vehicle conditions, so this can only be used as a reference, but when the warning light is on, there will be no oil, so the car should pay attention to it.
There are two types of automobile fuel gauge: pointer type and digital type. The pointer type means that the amount of fuel is indicated by the position of the pointer. The fuel gauge is marked with the letters E and F. F indicates full and e indicates insufficient. There is also a digital fuel gauge, which can also display the mileage, but the mileage can only be used as a reference. It is only the result calculated by the trip computer based on the average fuel consumption and the remaining fuel in the fuel tank.
