Why don't you answer the phone or start the engine when filling up your car?

Answering the phone while filling up gas

Talking on the phone while refueling is dangerous because strong phone waves can affect electronic circuits and cause sparks.

The spark itself is very small, but because the gasoline vapors fly and spread in the surrounding environment, the risk of fire is very high. Therefore, to ensure safety, you should stand far away from the gas station to answer the phone or better yet, "turn off the power" for safety.

Fill the tank with gas

Overfilling the gas tank will cause excess gas to spill out, stick to the surface of the car, affecting the paint layer, and in the long run, yellow stains will appear right under the gas tank mouth, reducing the value of the car. Therefore, you should estimate the amount of fuel in the gas tank, avoid overfilling, not only damaging the paint but also "wasting money".

Overfilling or using the wrong fuel is bad for your car's engine.

Wrong fuel

Therefore, you need to know clearly what fuel your car uses. If the car runs on diesel, you should stick a diesel decal on the fuel tank cap to avoid confusion. If you lend your car to relatives or friends, you should remind them to avoid unfortunate incidents.

Let the engine run

Many people have the habit of refueling but still leaving the engine running. This is very dangerous because during the refueling process, fuel vapors from the pump will quickly escape. If the enginecarAt this time, if the vehicle is still operating, it will continue to generate heat due to the combustion of the fuel mixture, which can easily lead to an explosion. Therefore, you should be careful to turn off the vehicle engine when refueling to avoid accidents.

Hit the pump nozzle into the gas tank

Nowadays in Vietnam, many gas stations let car owners pump gas into their cars themselves. Many people have the habit of hitting the nozzle against the wall after pumping gas, which can also create friction and static electricity, causing unsafety.

It is best to pull the spout out slowly and lift the spout up. Take care to close the bottle cap properly and securely.

Putting the wrong fuel in your car when starting the engine will damage the engine and you will have to spend a lot of money on repairs.
