I believe most drivers will inevitably come across forget to refuel, or if traveling on a highway overpass in this case, the fuel gauge lights up and suddenly can not find the surrounding gas station .. then how to do?
First, we must first understand their own car, to be able to know roughly how much mileage, fuel gauge lights means: to lower the vehicle fuel, the need for timely refueling.
When the lights in the end how much inventory there is in the tank it? On this point basically we have not had clear standards, although individual models vary, but are similar. I am here to list the amount of oil remaining after the fuel gauge lights up several models for reference purposes only!
For chestnuts, assuming that the remaining seven liters of oil in the tank, and the fuel consumption of the basic car in one hundred kilometers 10 liters of oil, so your car can be life now is about 70 kilometers.
After the oil lamp lit things to note:
Whether dashboard displays Mileage own or empirically calculated, it can only be a reference value. And running short of oil in the state is likely to burn out fuel pump, then need to do is find the nearest gas station.
So looking at the gas station in the process, how to get more mileage is very important. At this time the fight is the knowledge of the car!
1, the vehicle speed control. For displacement in 1.3-1.8L car, the economic speed of between 45-65KM/h, 2.0-3.0L vehicles, economic speed between 55-75km/h, these are nice results through the field. In addition to controlling the speed of the economy, but also know that EFI technology is in accordance with the vehicle speed to control the fuel injection quantity, that is, the faster the more costly oil. Therefore, the best control vehicle speed 100km/h. If you have to pay attention to the speed limit on the lowest speed, the speed to cross below the local identity in order to avoid danger.
2, reduce the load. Body weight the greater the cost of oil, if there is peer car, consider first the luggage or additional passengers to arrange a car.
3. Do not open electronic equipment. Air conditioning and other high-power electrical appliances will increase engine load, further affecting fuel consumption.
4, close all the windows. When the car driving at high speed, wind resistance factors should be taken into account. Close all windows will make you a lot of fuel.
5, try to choose a better road road driving. Asphalt certainly more fuel efficient than the rough roads.
6, smooth uniform driving, reducing brake. If the manual transmission make reasonable shift, slow refueling, predict well in advance around avoiding obstacles or around the vehicle, to reduce unnecessary braking.
7, try to avoid congested roads. Planning ahead is good line to avoid taking the wrong path just a waste of fuel.
8, try to be able to leave the highway interchange, the road quickly before running out of oil. After the fuel gauge lights up the general can open a few dozen kilometers, the vehicle is expected to be almost out of gas when leaving the main road as soon as possible, because these parking places will cause a certain security risk, but not a U-turn also increases the feed oil impede .
Lack of oil under the circumstances driving hazards:
1, the fuel pump is likely to be burned. A fuel pump located within the tank, a large amount of heat during operation, and the fuel corresponding to its cooling liquid, cooled by continuously to ensure that the fuel pump is working. If there is no fuel can be imagined than the fuel pump and then burn out.
2, fuel filter clogging. Fuel quality is uneven, especially in small cities. Prolonged use of fuel oil is not good, the bottom will accumulate a certain residue in the tank, the tank bottom continues to pump oil on the filter is also a major challenge.
