Tip #2
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. In slow mode you should be pumping
on low speed, thereby minimizing the vapors that are created while
you are pumping. All hoses at the pump have a vapor return. If you
are pumping on the fast rate, some other liquid that goes to your
tank becomes vapor. Those vapors 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 gas tank is
HALF FULL or HALF EMPTY. The reason for this is, the more gas you
have in your tank the less air occupying its empty space. Gasoline
evaporates faster than you can imagine. Gasoline storage tanks have
an internal floating roof. This roof serves as zero clearance
between the gas 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 gallon is actually the
exact amount.
Tip # 3
Another good tip, if there is a gasoline truck pumping into the
storage tanks when you stop to buy gas, DO NOT fill up--most likely
the gasoline is being stirred up as the gas is being delivered, and
you might pick up some f the dirt that normally settles on the
bottom. Hope this will help you get the most value for your money.
