Reasons why you should not try to drive when you are almost out of fuel
Driving when the fuel is almost gone is not good for the engine and other parts.
According to experts, the fuel in the car tank must always be about half full. Absolutely do not try to drive when the fuel gauge is low. At that time, the driver should immediately refill.
According to analysts, if the vehicle is frequently operated in a state of fuel depletion, it is very easy to damage the engine and other mechanical parts. Because each vehicle has many mechanical parts designed in fuel-flooded conditions to operate at their best, thereby helping the engine increase its durability and avoid corrosion from external factors.
In addition, the fuel pump is responsible for transferring fuel from the fuel tank to the combustion chamber, which is considered an important part of the pumping system. If the driver tries to move when the vehicle's fuel tank is empty, it will cause a lot of damage, especially to the filter and motor.
Accordingly, when the vehicle moves in a state of empty fuel tank, air will run through and replace the cooling fuel for the copper coil in the fuel pump, which means the copper coil cannot cool effectively, leading to the electric motor overheating and easy damage.
Along with that, when the vehicle moves with an empty fuel tank, the residue in the tank is also sucked into the pump to supply the engine. This happens repeatedly, causing more fuel residue to accumulate in the tank, making the performance worse or causing engine corrosion.
Because when the residue in the fuel tank is sucked up, it will stick to the filter, causing the filter to become clogged and the fuel will not reach the combustion chamber, the vehicle will be very difficult to start, even if there is too much residue, it will not be able to start. In addition, when the fuel flow is obstructed by residue sticking to the filter core, it will affect the cooling of the fuel pump electric motor.
Meanwhile, if the car is running with full fuel, the gas tank also becomes a heat sink and cools the electric motor, because in the process of sucking gas from the tank to the engine, the fuel needs to go through a circular gas pump and cool the copper coils.
Therefore, if vehicle owners do not want to spend extra money on repairs such as replacing fuel filters or fuel pumps before maintenance, they need to pay attention to the fuel gauge and refill fuel when the gauge is at the minimum level so that the vehicle can operate durably and prolong its life.
Not to mention that if the driver leaves the fuel tank running low for a long time, it can lead to rust in the tank, causing it to burst and leak fuel. At that time, the risk of fire and car fire will be extremely high.
